Alan - here's the link to the truck bed...

1950's Ford Truck Bed | Trucks for sale on Fort Leonard Wood bookoo!

Just when I thought I saw the light at the end of the tunnel, it turned out to be a freight train. I just found out that my boss won't be returning in January like I had hoped. It looks more like the end of September... Joy.

 

You must have the same luck I do. I always break things on old cars. Except Ranchero's. Those things have always cooperated with me for some reason.

 

Thanks Dave! I'm gonna hold off on buying parts for this truck until the title's in my name.

I got the sign fixed today and inside curing. I'm gonna wait until Wednesday to lay the lettering down, let that dry, then on Saturday I'll finish air brushing the flames. I'm out of time, so I hope the rest of this goes smoothly.

I also got three of the four wheels and tires finished for the Chevelle. They're coming out nice. I'll finish the last one tomorrow.

 

That's always a good idea. It stinks to dump money on a project that becomes impossible to register.

Good Morning Missour!

 

'Mornin' Dave. I'm gonna polish my last wheel and mount the last tire for the Chevelle today. After that, who knows?

 

dang alan still polishing wheels...i gues i have to stop coming by and taking ya away from your work... i measured that one drive shaft off the 4x4 looks like about 54".. somehow i didnt remember the measurements you gave me... i went ahead and ordered the distributor for the 4.9 this morning.. so i guess i will be putting a dura spark in it.. then i can eliminate all that stinking wiring.. i was thinking of using the carb off the old 240 i have off that van out back.. maybe i can be driving another ford soon.. i guess i was crazy for getting rid of that old green bumpside..this 83 f-150 is alot more rusty than that truck for sure... but i like the 6cyl. with the c-6

 

Ck out these brain surgeons of society.....some peoples kids, jeesh.

i just cant figure how what seems to be very young kids can afford such late model trucks with who know how much spent on after market parts. then just try to break them.. i know i was guilty of abusing my old hot rods but they were old cars and trucks that someone thru away and i patched back together... maybe my grand kids are right and i am just getting too old to appreciate a good time

 

Stupid kids spending "daddies" money, probably do not know the meaning of hard work and never will. To bad, cause the kids driving those trucks should go to jail and never be allowed to have a driver licence.

Especially the one driving the Dodge dragging the chebby around, I mean ok drag a little like to the curb and get him to shut up, but don't go endangering innocent folks and all in the mall parking lot.

I bet the kid in the chebby need some new shorts, LMAO.

Hello Mo.

 

Rich. I saw that video. If you look, the guy with the Chevy needed four new tires because he never took his foot off the brake. The guy with the Dodge would've woken up to four slashed tires if that was my truck.

Yes. ...stupid kids.

 

Oh, I almost forgot. I got the wheels on the Chevelle today. It's amazing how much it's starting to look like my first car. I keep catching myself staring at it.

 

So the poor kid bought a 5h1trolet. There IS such a thing as 'going too far'!!! He was obviously outclassed before it even started, but dragging it all around the mall like that? Not needed!!!

 

looks good alan... you really got alot done since i was there if you drove it out of the shop...

 

Just curious, anybody here that speaks CIVILIZED computer & can explain to me (in PLAIN English, preferably words of one syllable or less) what all this stuff at the bottom of the page means? BB code? HTML code? Trackbacks?, etc. Pretty sure I know what smileys are & THINK I know what [IMG] code is.

 

In a word, not me.
