yep, they are bent the wrong way for shipping, I wondered the same thing. You have to bend them opposite very slowly, and they will kink a little...
I took my vacuum motor apart last night and cleaned out a heap of solid chunky crud, I imagine 55 years ago it was lubrication. Hopefully this...
ehh, a manual would be way cooler. All you'd need to do is find somebody with the pedal assembly from a manual truck and bolt it under the cab....
what are "AD's?"
To assemble the front end, do I first put the inner fenders on, then slip the grill so those lower tabs go between the inner fenders and the core...
Sounds awesome. I put a big block 402 in my 1950. I have about 1/2" from the back head to the firewall and about 1/2" from my pulley to the...
I decided to clean up the one splined wiper arm pivot, the thing that is on the end of the wiper link and goes from the inside cab through the...
take some pictures and post those suckers
RE: Brake lines & Splices I used straight sections of pre-flared line from the auto store. It comes in all lengths so you don't really need to...
I'm new to this forum, I have a 1950. My question is about the length of the bench seats in the 67-72 trucks. I'm looking for new seats and...
ohhhhhh, I thought that's what you might be talking about, in which case the answer is No, we aren't talking about the same thing. I did mean...

RE: door alignment but the thing is, the hinge attachment to the cab has slotted holes for variability, but the slots are oriented vertically....
RE: door alignment I'm not sure what I need to do. Since the lower part of the door is out to far, what will move it in closer to the cab. I...
Is there any way to fix misalignment like in these pics? The bottom of the door is WAY outside the cab. It doesn't even come close to sealing....
yeah I saw those slots and I figured it was for the chain hook to go in, but I didn't think that could possibly be the method for holding the gate...
you should post some pics if you can. In which case if they are anything like your description you'd be better off waiting to find a descent cab...
I know those circular hinges hold the bottom of the tailgate in place, but what connects it up top so it doesn't rattle around?
but if that doesn't pan out, isn't there any other way to get cushions for these benches? there must be, I can't be the only guy who doesn't have...
