Re: Any one near Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada

I can't believe Andrew sold his truck for that. He wanted $4500.00 at first, the last offer to me was $1500.00 and I passed. The truck is in very bad shape, been buried to the axle in his neighbor's farm field for years. You should see the photo's he sent me when he first decided to sell it. The mis...

Re: Disk Swap with Dakota Rotors ???

RE; Reading this post got me to thinking.... I just went through this process and gave up. I own a salvage yard and have all types of new and used parts to try out. Problem for me started when I built my tube straight axle using the stock 61 spindles, didn't think it would be a big deal to achieve a...

61 Uni Disc Brakes with 5 on 4.5" Bolt Circle ?

Hey all, has anyone installed 4.5" bolt circle disc brakes on a 57-64 F-100 ? I know the F100/150 rotors will fit with 5 on 5-1/2" bolt circle, they could be re-drilled to the 4.5" pattern. It would require a fare bit of machining to relieve the back of the hub to clear and seat the w...

Re: My Hillbilly 63 Uni project

Well it's official... Project Hillbilly63 is dead Had the frame sand blasted, turned out ok other than it being bent. After stripping down the rest of the body things didn't look good. The truck just sat to long and rusted out. It needs a full bed, torque box, box side, both doors, one fender, not t...

Re: Check out this guy selling my old Dodge Dart Swinger

I was in total shock when I first seen the ad, I couldn't stop laughing. He seemed a likable guy, and talked up a storm about his autobody/paint skills and bodyshop. Yet when my Son dropped off the car at his farm, there was no shop or equipment, just an open lean too shed and a small wood floor spo...

Check out this guy selling my old Dodge Dart Swinger

So we sold one of our project cars a couple of weeks ago to a guy. It's a 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger 318 car, been sitting out back for over 12 years. My Son had stripped it down to a shell and tossed the original engine / trans years ago, has sat there ever since rotting away. It has some major rust i...

Re: My Hillbilly 63 Uni project

Sorry guys for the large photo's, wasn't thinking when I posted last night. Don't mind the junk in the background, we own a home base snowmobile / motorcycle salvage shop, but also do some auto salvage as well. My Son runs his business here too, he wrecks import tuner cars like right hand drive Skyl...

My Hillbilly 63 Uni project

http://www.webnameswb.ca/users/2055/sites/5847/images/My63.jpg I bought this 1963 F100 Unibody short bed 5 years ago, got it home, stripped it down and gave up. http://www.webnameswb.ca/users/2055/sites/5847/images/My63a.jpg Pushed it out to the back field where it has been since. I have so many pe...

1963 Canadian Unibody Vin # Problem... Help

Hi all. I bought a 1963 Uni short bed project truck about 5 years ago off a guy who never registered it when he bought it. He had the signed transfers, but lost the registration paper. So I contacted the 2nd previous owner and he agreed to get a new copy of the registration. So I'm putting together ...

shortening a long box unibody ... idea's or builds

Hi all, first time on this new site. I was thinking with all the long box uni's floating around has anyone built a short box out of a long box unibody. It may not be cost effective, but it should be possible. I was thinking the box sides would be shortend at the rear, the bed floor and wheel housing...
