Gave my '52 a workout today, hauling home a new purchase -- an Atlas 10" lathe! I'm stoked to start making chips! (It isn't really leaning as much as it looks -- in fact I don't think the springs dropped 1/2" with about 400 lbs back there.)
cool pic ross. my brother in law took his 49 (ch**y) to pick up a 4 liter v6 for a ranger he is working on, the guy at the yard was very reluctant to go near it with the forklift, but with some prodding, he loaded the engine already on a hoist, right into the truck.
No idea! I have to get it set up and read the manuals, etc. It's been years since I did anything on a lathe. But there always seems to be something I need machined, and all my local sources who were willing to do small jobs are gone.
I saw this truck and trailer in a hotel parking lot in Kimball, NE a couple of weeks back. It was great to see an ole' gal still earning her keep. I looked like the truck met some obstruction on the road during it's travels. I wish I could have met the owner but my travels required me to get back on the road. Hope she made it home safely.
