Now that all the years of waiting are over, are you down to months, weeks, or days?

Lightshow, my drivers side cab mount is as bad as yours. Passenger side is fine. Looking underneath, my drivers side sits on the frame and the passenger side is about an inch or so above the frame. The reslult is I have about a 1/2 inch or greater gap in my steering column just below the stearing wh...

That is some really nice work. I too would like to know what color your engine is.

That thing is great. Will probably last another 45 years.

110 here yesterday. Don't leave your tools in the sun. Can't even touch them. But as everyone say's "it's a dry heat". So is an oven.

Reference Library.... where???? I have a bunch of brochures I scanned as hi-rez pdf's. Willing to donate them to the cause....

Guess getting that water truck is completely out of the question now.

How did the fire start? In the cab or in the engine compartment? Was the fuel tank involved? If those tires were the ones on it at the time of the fire you may be in good shape regarding the frame. The burnt sheet metal is junk but may paint up nice. The steel loses its strength when exposed to temp...

All that truck needs is someone in Alaska with a tow truck. Hmmmmmm...

Spent the weekend reviving an old Chrysler "K" car in that has been sitting in my dad's back yard for about the last 15 years. We could get it to run by dumping gas down the carb, but we could not get gas out of the tank to the carb. We put in 5 gallons and the fuel level still reads empty...

Wow! What does one say to that? That thing is a candidate for Pimp my Ride.....

Small world! I called on that truck a while ago. Talked to the owner in Florida. How'd you get it back to Wisconsin? He said the gas tank was junk. Glad to see it went to someone on the site.

Sure looks like the same truck to me. How did the P.O. say he happened across it?

Can never have to many parts. I bet sitting in a field in Alaska and sitting in a field in Arizona are worlds apart. I can only imagine how many vehicles I'd own if I had my own tow truck.

Ouch! That is the worst slick day ever.

Looks like that cab swap may happen sooner than planned.... unless your brother backed into the slick you just picked up?

Will check out your pics. I knew nothing about slicks until I joined this site. Everyone has given me great recomendations and I can truly say that without this forum I wouldn't even be attempting a project.

Doc, Sounds like you need a new seat first. Might want to ask the dog to come clean... no pun intended.

I'd be too afraid to cut the frame to say the least of welding it back together. I'm sure if I did something like that you couldn't align it ever again. Hats off for attempting the feat.

The more I look at those seats, the more I like them in a truck.
