    IMG_0942.jpg This is my first post on this forum. I am 75, a former hot rodder. I am a retired engineer and Navy veteran(sub sailor). I thought I was done with old cars until my wife inherited a 1950 Dodge 1/2 ton pickup that her father bought new in Rifle, CO. I have it now in Iowa, its rust free. It hasn't been driven since 1981. I had it running in six days after changing all the fluids, what fun. It has 88k miles. I'll try to post a pic. It has no brakes after trying to fix them for 6 weeks. I have the truck in a rented garage to work in and its Cold! Did I say I was having fun???

    Welcome to the H.A.M.B.
    really nice old dodge.
    I’d suggest you post your brake problem/question on a separate post on the main forum. We’ll get you STOPPED in no time.

    Very cool truck! Welcome to the HAMB and enjoy your Dodge. It's like "hot-rodding" won't let you completely get away.:D
