If what I found got the blood pumping, yours would bust one of my vessels.
Valuable for real! I bought a load of red and clear glass lenses, bunches of bezels, spot lights, marker lights, tractor lights, literally...
Carmuts, thankyou very much for the links! They will be more than helpful. Turns out it is a Buick, 41-48.
Yes, it is 5931716RH .
I have looked through most all the possibilities on Carnut, but cant find a make model or year to match this bezel. For some reason it looked...
Thankyou for the valuable information!
The P&G Valve Gapper, model 300, which I have includes an Inner Barrel "1", and a Base Adapter "G", along with other barrels and adapters....
I shot this picture a couple days ago at a yard sale: [IMG]
Found that the battery had reverse polarity, but dont have the explanation of why, how or when that occurred. I took over and installed a...
I am going to try and get over there tomorrow and get to the problem. With the suggestions it should get done, and I'll make a followup post....
The starter isnt locked up, as he started the engine yesterday with the alternator disconnected. I checked the alternator with a multimeter...
A friend has a nice '54 Pontiac street rod. 389 engine. The car was very recently purchased in finished condition. One day it wouldnt start,...
I thought some of you guys might enjoy this pic. It was on the back of a 70+ years old mail order auto mechanic's repair lesson, and looks like...
I enjoyed seeing the pictures of the flathead six. Just sold a '58 Rambler 195.6 flathead last week. It was an amazingly simple engine. And a...
Thanks. I got tired of hunting for a good set of running boards. Since one goal was to make the truck as light as possible, the short boards fit...
With the 42-47 1/2 ton club being small, it is always nice to have another see pavement! Keep up the good work! This is mine: [IMG]
I saw a Y-block being set in place! My choice too!
That is what I was originally thinking. Heavier frame, less or no boxing. A '46 1.5 ton frame is about 6 inches tall compared to my 1/2 ton...
Thanks a LOT for the price comparison! Sometimes it is easy for us less experienced to loose track of value. At least this '36 is only 4 miles away.
Thanks for all the replies and suggestions. I am going to pursue this. It sounds like there are a number of directions possible, but none if it...
When the owner said 1 ton dump, I was thinking it was probably 1.5. If the only thing useable on the truck was the front sheet metal and cab,...
I am in Williams, OR about 45 minutes from Meford.
I posted the following on a different forum but didnt get any responses or suggestions. Since the experts are here will give it a shot... I was...
To simplify your search I have a '55 front motor mount for Y-block in a truck for not much. Send a message :) .
I have a half ton. Just got home from taking it up to the Roseburg, OR show and shine. There were many nice rides up there! Mine has a '58 292...
Blockhead, I ran onto this old thread while looking for something else. How did the project work out?
benflathead, great looking truck!
Back in '77 I sold a '67 Barracuda with 273, headers, bad paint job to some gypsies for $40. I told all of them that the clutch was slipping so...
I have a 4 inch dropped axle with mono's and cross steering in my '46.. Absolutely no bump steer. Drag link is very close to parallel with tie...
Y-block weight can be reduced quite a bit with some add on goodies, if you can find them: Aluminum timing cover, water pump, thermo housing and...
