While there is nothing wrong with using the parts one needs from a parts truck, that certainly looks like it was done quick and rough. Shame the residue could not be sold to others, for more parts, before being cut up. ALFA2

Do you know what make/model the truck was? Any info would be helpful. Thank you. ALFA2

tie6044, that looks like a dry rot/presure related failure in the sidewall, check to see how soft and pliable are the newly exposed edges of the side wall are to the touch. They should be rubbery, not plastic feeling. If the rubber feels hard or plasticky, then it is caused by dry-rot, also...

Hello All, I have a 465 Multifuel engine, with the turbo off of it now, (in a box), engine has the engine data plate completely faded to metal. The only numbers that are visible are stamped into the engine's data plate: 3871149 also, the casting on the passenger side of the engine block has...

Hello Gimpyrobb, do you have a pintle hitch assembly from the frame of the M332, I am looking for the whole thing: spring, washer, pintle hook.... someone stole mine years ago, and I have been looking to replace it. Thanks. ALFA2

Wow this project seems labor intensive, hope to see how it works when done. Thanks. ALFA2

Wehring, I have seen a trailer at an MV show in PHX, that had almost this combo, except they kept the overload springs where they were, and added a steel spacer block on top of the axle, and from what it looked like, a longer set of U bolts. That trailer did not have a cargo cover, but it also...

Is there any more of this " junk " where this came from ? ALFA2

That is a good looking set up. ALFA2

jesusgatos, you certainly have improved an already neat product, hope you get some more interest, as this one seems to be more healthy and usable looking, than the first ones. Good luck with your design, nice work ! and thanks for postiong the pics. ALFA2

tjphoto, welcome to the site, you got a nice one there, enjoy it, lots of info and help is available! ALFA2

It looks pretty good, if it runs it is worth $500.00 and a 302 is an old but tough little engine, easy to work on to get it going. Hope it helps. ALFA2

Bigtoyman is correct, the adapter pictured in his post is from Boyce, ( Call them to ask about it), and is easy to put in, and will solve your speedometer inaccuracy, you can feel free to check it for your piece of mind, after installation with a GPS speed, while driving... Also make sure that...

No, the home depot composite is not equivalent in compression strength to oak planks. Composite material that exceeds oak for most things, crush, twist, rot resistance, UV resistance, moisture resistance, splitting, cracking... does exist, but in the sizes needed for the gasket application for...

It appears that you ave a trend going there, this truck will be even nicer restored. Great find. ALFA2

Well, it certainly is a Chrysler product, late 60's- early 70's, an older big block v8 type, pre electronic ignition. It is ether a industrial 413" or an industrial 440" some engine parts will interchange with a normal engine of that same size, but not many.. replacement parts can be found most...

wdbtchr, places/services that pressure wash concrete, or do concrete custom etching would have phosphoric acid, possibly even more concentrated than home depot version. Good Luck. ALFA2

Everything else being equal, the A2 is much more user friendly, can be fixed by non dealer mechanic or owner, A3 not so much if engine, trans, or CTIS systems break, or need parts. Title and registration on a A2 is usually historic or antique capable, and so is the insurance, being cheaper as an...

Just as an outside thought, no jacking of a truck should be done without blocking the wheels properly with at least two wheel chocks, rated for the trucks weight. This is to prevent the wheels from rolling even ever so slightly, which can disbalace the truck and knock it of of the jack an or...
