Sounds like a very fair price for a restored truck. I have seen much higher here in California. Glad it worked out in the end....Mike
Evan, glad to hear it went to the right guy. These trucks are very popular right now, and are getting some very crazy prices too. Too many of them...

I searched for a past post, but didn't find it. On my 50 1/2 ton, I am doing some door work. I am curious as to which way the door control lever...
A lot of that depends on which transmission you use. Auto transmissions used differential gearing from mid 2 to mid 3:1 ratios all the time before...
Mike, I'm sure Nate will drop in sooner or later to answer. I am pretty sure the reason is for safety. An empty fuel tank is very dangerous to...
Myself, I would try to go the automatic route. I think it will be much simpler to work with. A manual trans would be fun, but with that much power...
With enough cutting and welding, anything is possible. I guess a lot of it comes down to how much money you have, how much time you have, and how...

13 leaves!!! Wow you could probably haul a house in the bed of that truck. Ha Ha. Out of round just means just that. They are not round. Think of...
RE: Brake lines & Splices Kent, glad to hear it worked out well. I would recommend you recheck the lines a few times in the next few days, weeks,...
Garry. on my 50, I installed a 10 bolt, along with a driveshaft, and did not use a rear crossmember. The truck actually had one in place with a...
RE: Brake lines & Splices Nate, sorry. I reread your other post, and apparently I was still groggy when I read it the first time. I misunderstood...
Kent, check this site for some good pictures. www.integerspin.co.uk/brakeflare.htm It shows the difference very well. The single flare...
I would be very reluctant to do it that way. I don't think it will hold up to the pressures, etc. You would probably be better off using shorter...
