A couple of Slicks in Eastern Iowa
I haven't been on for awhile but there is a guy in Dewit Iowa who has 2 slicks. One was a show truck and took a light hit in the front. The other is a parts truck. He wants a grand for both. He sent me pictures and the good one box and cab look pretty good. Here is his email: I'm located in De Witt,...

Re: Someone should nab this one quick
For $475 more I would sell my 62 short box unibody and it is pretty solid. I would like to keep it but I can't do it justice at the time. I don't want to let it just sit neglected. I have it in the Des Moines Craigslist for $1500. I've dropped the price several times. I will be firm with Craigslist ...

Re: need dd advice. (63 merc)
There was a really solid 2 dr daily driver southern Iowa a few days ago for $1500. I see the ad is deleted. It would have been great to get a 2 dr.

Selling out - bought another truck
After having to borrow pickups to do various tasks I looked around at all the stuff I have sitting around and came to the recognition that I could have a really decent truck if I sell off this stuff plus I have a packed garage that frustrates me. Many of you know I got a great deal on a package of t...

Re: Bad carb?
I would take all the throttle linkage from manifold and including the carb if you want to pull it for me. I already have an extra engine but not the linkage so I don't need two engines to step around!! HA!!! How often to you get to Des Moines or up near Newton? If my schedule works I would meet you ...

Re: Bad carb?
I went out and tried it and it started! Wow! But I could use the link that attaches the throttle linkage to the carb. It is the small piece.

I need the linkage piece between the throttle linkage and the carb. You can get the linkage ball at a parts store.

Re: Bad carb?
Both carbs will run if you feed them gas without using the fuel pump? I have an engine that is coming out of my '62 uni, you can have that one if you want it, engine tranny and all (block is supposedly cracked). I'll even deliver! Let me get a pic of mine tomorrow and I'll post it here tomorrow som...

Bad carb?
How can I tell if I have a bad carb? The carb that came on my nonrunning 223 wasn't made for it and it was Micky moused together. However I got the truck running by hanging gas. Picked up a second 223 motor and tranny for $75 and the guy said he put a carb kit in it but couldn't get the truck runnin...

Re: Truck offered to me
I think that truck would be worth the effort to haul it home. I bet it would ride nice on a regular car hauling trailer. Where is it and where do you live Godlover? I live in Newton, Iowa. The truck is in Geddes, South Dakota. I need to sell my 65 so I have room! I have 2 62 Unibodies and my 65 F10...

Truck offered to me
My brother in law offered me his families old farm truck but is it worth going 350 miles or having it shipped? I don't have a truck or trailer and figure it might be too big for a typical car trailer. I think it might be a f350. He is supposed to get me more info.
