How can a lost title get replaced and does it affect the resale value of the car/truck? I have seen many good "deals" lately on classics with no title. Most people want to sell them for parts. An article in Classic Trucks a few years ago suggested against buying a truck without a good title.

In most cases you can obtain a title by posting a bond (which you can purchase; check with insurance agencies) equal to the value of the vehicle.

You kneed two clay pieces together until the color is well blended then put it where you need it. In your case you won't be able to sand very easily so you want to get it right the first time. This stuff shines there. After you put it on you can wet your finger and smooth the stuff just like you want it. East to work with. Dried rock hard. $19 They also have a seam sealer that has the anti-rust qualities of the POR 15 paint. Haven't tried this but got some for my '90 truck that is starting to show some rust under the door at the seam. Comes in a tube $10. www.porstore.com GV in CT '37 4D PU How does '374D' work for antique plates?

I could sure use a copy to review my own wires in my newest baby to the family. Thanks for the help whomever can help.

They worked fine untill I installed a stock radio and it took up the space where the '52 wiper motor was, the '51-52 radio sets lower in the dash. I disassembled the wiper frame and mounted the motor over the dash pod. This was not a very easy thing to do and it still needs some adjustment. The reason I am writing is to let you know that the '51-52 will fit right in if you don't install a stock radio. I also was told told once a wiper unit from a '56 Dodge will fit too, Although I don't know this for sure but you can measure one up if you see one. Good luck, Bob Jones '49 F-2 '48 Panel '49 Ford 8N ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2000 17:37:10 -0400 From: WIlliam Hendrickson <billjhs Subject: Brakes Hello again, I find this group a most helpful one and wish I could give more input on things. I have a question concerning the brakes on my f2. The front wheel cylinders leak alot. But I noticed that there are no wheel cylinder pins ( those parts that stick out and are against the cups they have the groove in one end that attaches to the brake shoe) Are they supposed to be present on the F2??? I know they belong on the F1. Thanks Bill ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2000 17:34:00 -0700 (PDT) From: Dennis Moody <zeener96 Subject: 1951 rear end Cleand the years of grime and grease off of my rear axle this week and noticed two holes drilled in the axle housing. The holes are on the top of the axle tubes, inside of the spring perches. I thought they might be breather holes, but they appear to be threaded. Does anyone know what this is???? What is supposed to be screwed in there? Dennis ===== Zeener96 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Send instant messages & get email alerts with Yahoo!
