Bill and I had a blast at the Autorama on Friday. Here's a sampling of the AD trucks. Enjoy!

Hope ya'll enjoy the day! Let's start out with this! http://www.railpictures.net/photo/442097/ Ken

Spent it grilling ribs with family and friends, going to see my beloved Houston Lastro's and reflecting on why I was able to do so! Instead of trying to put it in words this year, I'm resurrecting this old post. https://talk.classicparts.com/showthread.php?t=6491&highlight=memorial Thanks...

Did some advance scouting for a replacement truck for Bill Hanlon today. Took a trip to La Grange, Tx (home of the infamous Chicken Ranch!) and scoped out 3 Chevy trucks! Ruled out the 2 tone beige one and the red and white one, but the red '54 shows promise!

It's hard to believe that we're putting 2012 under our belts! I guess it's true that time flies when you're having fun! I hope that all of my buddies on this forum enjoy this evening in a safe manner and wake up tomorrow with a renewed vigor to make 2013 the best year ever in everything they...

Thank you! Ken

Back in May, I went home and started going thru mom's old 35 mm slides! I took about 80 of the old ones and had them burned onto a CD! It is kinda like taking the old shoebox full of old pictures and reliving your past! Us old geezers know about shoeboxes full of pictures, you youngun's bear...

Ya'll ever seen this set-up? It was on a Model A tonight at the local show. I talked to the owner about it and he said that it was an accessory that you could buy from Sears in the late '40's that he retro-fitted to his '29. It is filled with Marvel Mystery Oil and the guy swears by...

According to the serial number on my truck, she had a birthday some time this month! She's 62 and doesn't look it! Just bragging on her! She's a classy lady! Ken

OK guys, my second truck, we'll just call it "F" for short has a lot of chrome plated items on it from it's show days in the '60's. Over the last 50 years, a lot of it has become, let's just say, less than acceptable! I'm to the point of thinking that some of it should be replated and some of...

Unfortunate, but true! I am now the proud owner of a, dare I say it, F*%d PU! Before you guys ban me for life from this forum, let me explain! It's my dad's 1934 Ford truck that he bought in 1954! Most of you have seen it on occassion on this forum. I'm not totally tainted because it has...

I'm curious as to which cab ya'll like best! Be honest and let's see! I know Nate's vote already! Nue view or no vue!

Hopped in the truck Friday evening to take a spin around the block. Hit the ignition, starter turned the engine over. Hit it again, expecting it to come to life and all it did was click, not a series of weak clicks, but one solid click. So I think, maybe it's the battery, maybe it's the...

There's an awesome thread over on the HAMB entitled "Vintage shots from days gone by!" It is over 1100 pages, it has had over 22,000 replies and over 3,000,000 views. I've kept up with it as time permits and have saved over 100 pictures that have both Chevy and GMC "AD" trucks in them. The...

Here's hoping that everyone's "significant other" goes to bed tonight with a smile on their face and a warm feeling in their heart! Valentine's Day, a day to show her how much you appreciate all of the loving things that she does for you all year, all for one night of pampering! My beautiful...

Here are some graphic examples of the problematic areas on our trucks.

1. Is it shiny side up, rubber side down, or vice versa? 2. Say, those long motors DO have more torque! 3. You know, the grille does look better upside down! 4. Dang, I just washed and waxed it!

Thought that I would share some pics of my latest "Great American Road Trip". Evan (Coilover) and Dennis (dvalentine) should like these shots for sure. Knowing Coilover's love of anything built in 1937, I present 3 prime examples of styling for 1937. The two-tone pink car is a '37 Packard...

Happy holidays, ya'll! Here's some of what my redneck buddies are doing. Enjoy! Ken:D

Who makes the best? It's been 30 years plus since I've had whitewall tires. I know dad and I used to use Westley's all of the time, but then again, that was way long ago. I also remember using Brillo pads and elbow grease. For you youngsters, a "Brillo" pad is a piece of foamed steel wool...
