Try classicparts.com I have better luck with them than I have had with LMC
I have been curious about mini starters. A Powermaster might be a possibility.
I havent really looked yet, the weather is getting nice and Im wanting to drive this thing on a daily basis again.
Also, the truck isnt even driven that often anymore. Does letting it sit do anything to the starter? Ive never heard of letting it sit do anything...
Sorry, I'm not able to get on here to often guys. Im blown away at all the responses though! Changing the starter every year is a little...
Yep, what he said above. Anything 1/4" or thicker needs multiple passes. Be sure and clean well between passes as well. I would still be worried...
I'm getting tired of putting a new starter every year. I just keep getting them from the local auto supply and they suck. I'm willing to spend...

I sprayed some epoxy primer then a seal coat over the weekend. There are a couple spots that sprayed a little rough for what ever reason. I am not...
I got I seat from a 73 Chevy truck for my 66, and it wasnt even close. The seat nose dived in the front so I had to make custom brackets.

That pretty much sums up the situation right there. Great tutorial! My main issue now is access to the inside
MP&C its definately a loose oil can that flops back and forth easily and consistently. I am pretty sure I caused it when welding.
Yea there isnt much access to the inside but there is a little. Im not sure if I could bump it out very well without just putting small dents in...
There was a lower patch I welded in. Im sure thats the problem, I should have checked the door more thoroughly before I did that be cause Im not...
The door skin on my truck goes in(low) length ways when I put a straight edge down the length of the door. About a 1/4 inch in the middle of the...
My truck dies or sputters anytime I brake hard, like it runs out of fuel. Im not sure what the problem is. Carb issues? Any ideas?
What type of disc are you using exactly? Im in the middle of the same job on my 66 Chevy. Ive been using chemical stripper and a DA
I use a Miller 180 at work and I love it. I dont know anything about the 165 though. The 180 is a very simple machine without all the nonsense our...
Well, I found out that the embossed part is actually the least of my problems, everything else on them is terrible. They are awful. Im on my way...
Yea Im actually debating that. Mine are beat up down there, but I have been learning to use the hammer and dolly so I might see what I can do with...
I know there have been several of these trucks built on the Hamb. I just got my inner door bottom patch panels from a local supplier and they...
surprisingly they arent that bad. sometimes the lens flashes from random lights but not while your welding so its no big deal
I sprayed a bed side with KustomShop epoxy primer surfacer/sealer. It uses a reducer to spray it as a sealer. I sprayed one side one day, and the...
