Thank you, Nate... I really appreciate that! I was recently promoted at work. When I accepted the position, I could see the old man rolling his...
I will check for seat belts and your solenoid tomorrow. I spent Friday and Saturday completely cleaning out my garage. I can now see the entire...
I sat in the bare cab to inspect the emergency brake assembly. It was too roached to use, so I just took the clutch linkage. There was no seat for...
I received a set of rear leaf spring mounts today. Three of the four are in fantastic shape. The remaining one is busted, but for the price I...

Thanks, Nate. I vote for paint, too. The question is: will I go with the stencil/air brush/clear coat plan like I'm thinking at the moment, or...
Ken, Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm a huge history buff myself, so I appreciate old photos like these too, even when they don't...

Sorry, it's been a busy afternoon. PM has been sent. Damon
Hahahaha... ok, here's what I have. The first photo is of the second part of the family bizz... a trailer rental service. It was run out of...
