Well, I've finally started working on the truck and started with the bed, a previous owner somewhere down the line welded a sheet of Diamond Tread over the wood bed to hide the rotting wood. So I cut it out last weekend to begin removing the bed. Start: https://s20.postimg.org/43ebnjn0d/IMG_1935.jpg...

@Anthony & All, Thanks for the responses. The Taurus indeed has a rack and pinion steering setup I replaced it about 15 years ago. :) Fan and seat are good as well. Anyone in the market for bench seat? As for where we are: about an 50 NE of Nashville. Bring the truck and camper our way. I've bee...

100%. Total eclipse here at the house in middle TN. Staying home and away from the craziness. Pinhole camera for viewing just like back in the 70s. Don't trust those $2 plastic "glasses".

A truck should ride like a truck.

I got a better chance to look around today and made pictures of potential problem areas. Looks like there is plenty of work to do. :shock: https://s20.postimg.org/kabfc4f99/IMG_1890.jpg https://s20.postimg.org/kzpmaqqf1/IMG_1884.jpg https://s20.postimg.org/7123prfwd/IMG_1900.jpg https://s20.postimg....

Got her home yesterday, here is a quick walk around. https://s20.postimg.org/qjajaxgzh/IMG_20170808_184322466.jpg https://s20.postimg.org/72ptoelvh/IMG_20170808_184146534.jpg https://s20.postimg.org/744cvkd31/IMG_20170808_184045149.jpg https://s20.postimg.org/ywktjc5kt/IMG_20170808_191547.jpg https:...

Well the cup holder is broken. Fuses and relays I'll grab out of it. Thanks for the ideas.

Thanks for the write up. Can we get this one pinned?

Thanks for the reply Tom. That's what I thought, but heck. It can't hurt to ask the question being a newbie. With any luck a guy on a local Facebook group will pick it up this weekend for a demolition derby. :) and I'll get a few hundred for it to put on this project. Otherwise it's off to the scrap...

New here and to a '64 Short Bed. I've got a '91 Taurus that I'm about to trash to clear space for the '64. Anything usable for conversions or mods from the old junker? 3.0 motor runs and tranny works, ac is good... Frame is good, but suspension is probably shot. Don't want to discard stuff I might w...

He was riding with a friend and got thrown out of a jeep and down into a ravine . Sever damage to his head and back. I took that ride with my Dad back in 2001 the Saturday before Easter. Pulling a little trailer that the load shifted to far to the back. Started down a little hill and the 5 - 5 gall...

I'm waiting with you ALAN. I haven't been on here much lately, so I don't know who's found a cure for the picture posting, OR what all is involved. Waiting..Waitin..Waiti..Wait..Wai..Wa..W.._____________________ Posting pics is really pretty easy. Just upload a picture to your gallery. Once the ima...

My goal is to go pretty much straight stock with this one. Way back in '75 or so my Dad bought a '67 from a neighbor and that is what I learned to drive on, don't remember the motor size but think it was a V8, definitely had a 3 speed column shift....I loved that truck. I got home from school one da...

I hope to learn the NEW way to post pictures myself...... Posting pics is really pretty easy. Just upload a picture to your gallery. Once the image is uploaded, you can hover your pointer over the image and it will show something like this at the bottom of your browser: "http://www.slick60s.co...

This is what my '64 looked like prior to the previous owner starting an engine swap, but never completing it (new job, moved ...). Then next picture of it will be with the motor and hood in the bed of the truck. Really, really hope to get it hauled home this weekend and will add some additional befo...

New to the site here. About 40 mi, NE of nashville.

I'm in Hartsville, about an hour NE of Nashville. From Obion County in West TN.

I uploaded the pic above to an album on the site here on my profile and added a link to it using the <album></album> tag. Seemed pretty easy, but I've been doing this computer stuff for 30+ years.

It's been awhile since this topic was updated. Still having chats on Sunday evening? I'll try to join this week.

Brand new here, but hope activity picks back up. I just picked up a '64 Stepside a couple of weeks ago. Hope to get it hauled home this weekend, so the fun can begin.
