I have a friend thats a body guy, back when I started my truck repair I would have him over to do some patching... It scared me the way he would smack and pound things.. but I started seeing that the truck is n...

When I did this exact job I was able to get a decent line up top and bottom, I do recall it was not exact. but it was decent...and then just cut a slit on the cap where I wanted the new body line ..bend the metal below that in, flaten it some.. reweld and minimal bondo. However my quarters were pret...

Didn't they watch (Two Lane Blacktop?) they probably needed to change the jets !

I put long box corners on my short box uni, the body line was off and I had to make a couple cuts, reshape a bit..and reweld. I remember the body linepart went fairly easy, but the corner pieces I had didn.t line up real easy to my box..because my box was a bit wonky back there when I started ! http...

you can set the frequency of the ball shots, the speed, the spin, and make it shoot straight ahead, any fixed angle... or swing right to left. I barely get by on the slow easy settings ! hahahah Fun so far ! The trickiest part is getting the cheap catch net I bought feeding the balls back to the mac...

As someone that thinks the 53-56 Ford truck is fugly... I think its a good use of a hood and fenders ! hahahahah

I have no idea how someone thought of combining the two vehicles however? Must have just them and though,"I wonder if?"

I met a kid in my high school days who was trying to sell an old Toyota? Honey Bee?.... anyhow the front end was so loose and worn he actually took it all apart and wrapped everything with electrical tape, and sold it fast.. One of the funniest I have ever seen though was a parts truck Kids brother ...

The best way to post pics here is to park them at photobucket, and then link here...it keeps the cost of running the site down...

And..... I always picture him on an old narrow no cab tractor bumping down a wide windswept field.. trying to take notes as he writes it on the hood of the tractor...reaching around the steering wheel...

You have been busy, I haven't seen many of the things you are rounding up and posting.

Wow, great score on that one !

I banned you both a day before this thread..... but changed my mind

You know how some people get smart and by a car hoist? I can see Pat digging an 8 foot wide trench he can drive the 4by 4 into so everything under the hood is at belt buckle height

Dang, you did everything but spill your last cup of coffee on that trip

I don't ever even want to know what pulling a trailer in snow is like hahahahahahah

New kingpins and bushings with modern radial tires will perform a miracle right there !

Every trashed uni door with a good bodyline should be cut out and saved !!!!!

For some reason it seems like people were mostly using the 67 F250 master cylinder, or the 68 Mustang cylinder...for a low dollar upgrade. If I recall one has brake lines exiting to the driver side. The other to the passenger side. I think I updated a few trucks to the dual piston wheel cylinders wi...
