I woke up from a dream that I was there but unfortunately I will not come true for me this year. I'm having some issues with my charging system and though it seems like a silly reason, this year we have no pet sitter for either Paco our African Grey, or Blanca's latest "Jasper" a baby squirell that fell out of the nest that she has been rehabilitating. In my dream I was there with everyone and all our trucks, and I got to give Tim a big Huggy Bear hug. It's going to have to wait. I am going to miss everyone for sure, but here's hoping it won't be the last and hope you all have the best time ever.

Missing everyone,

Hank 

Still having fun with my truck :

Hi Tim,

Hope you are well. I really want to take my truck. It will be great to see everyone again. 

Thank you for being the greatest host ever !!!

I'm real sorry to hear that. I had great respect for his abilities and patience. He helped me out a couple of times. We traded extra Mopar parts once and although I never met him in person, we did talk on the phone. He as very kind and made me feel like I knew him. My condolences go out to his immediate family and all of his P15 D24  family who feel like me and found him to be a wonderful guy. 

Ouch that hurts. Seems the longer you wait (and parts are so scarce nowadays) the more you will pay.

Hank 

Sorry to hear that Keven. 

It's good to know he walked with Jesus and 

a big difference knowing he is with him now.

Hope his family are doing o.k. 

Hank

Hope this helps, I have some extra parts so PM me with your address if you'd like.

Hank

maybe if it has a working water cannon.....otherwise it is too nice to chance it.

 LOL

That's wierd,  my Roberts Floor Mat still looks to be in good shape despite how long it's been on and how much abuse it gets. I have to agree with Gary and he has always made good on anything that I purchased from him. The only time something wasn't right for me is that my 51 has the "hump" on the door panel. I got the straight one and when I asked Gary about it he sent the correct one out to me no charge.I know Gary and Gary always tries to do the right thing by us.

Hank 

Quite Magnificent !

If it still has the siren, it would be perfect to drive in LA (especially for Jeff, but maybe for Rod too)

It's getting close to gridlock, I don't do Freeways (yet...pending new differential and dsc brakes up front)

Welcome,

Hank 

oh, I get it.... we can't be seen together at the same bbq's

Fine! I'll just hang out with Hank (Hank don't run away when you see me coming like Paul kept doing....  )  

This year we can both run away from Paul ...How's that sound..Funny last year Paul was running away form me too..what's with that Guy. Plymouthy will probably keeep him occupied kind of like Trump on Hillary ? 

Geez it's less than a month away...

Hank 

Oh you are very welcome. I think you will find that the longer wheelbase gives a better ride.

Jeff

Better'n a dump truck anyway...

Hank ..

minicooper enjoy the short turning radius while you can...(Just Kidding...don't worry you'll love your 3/4 ton they are all great trucks !) 

Best way to go ! Always have two master cylinders, one installed and working the other rebuilt when you have time and are not in a crisis. I'm also planning to change to discs up front and am also interested in seeing pics and hearing how other forum members accomplished this.

I'll be lurking,

Hank   

Hope this helps

I'm donating a '51- '53 Dodge truck speedometer to the BBQ.

All proceeds will be donated to Tim to help cover the cost of food stuffs.

Winning bidder can pay me through Pay Pal and then I'll send Tim the money (minus shipping costs. $15).

Bid up folks!

 

Bidding ends one week before the BBQ.

 

Keven

Kev,

Wish you were coming,

Hank.

You better get some antifreeze in there so you don't have another freeze up!

I never heard of doing that, but what do I know about ice, I'm in Southern California (I went swimming today)

Hank 

May your gears not grind, may your oil not leak and may your Flatties runs smooth as silk. Sorry I'm not going to make it and get to meet all you guys and your rides. 

Have a Great Time,

Hank    

Paul,

There's a little known adjustment for just that. The adjustment allows the shift lever (the steel cane looking part) to lift the cane more so that the transmission has an easier time finding first (and reverse) Hope that's all it is and you get it shifting properly.

Most likely Ash. A beautiful wood to work with. Protected, it will withstand the elements pretty well.

I'd love to have that Woodie too,

Hank 

Roberts Motor parts sells this item.

 

Jeff

It's just cut down fender welt. When cut/trimmed I believe the web is about 1/2" wide. It's tough stuff so marking with an ice pick and then using a Harbor Freight Hole Punch Kit will work like a charm an old single hole paper punch would probably do the trick.

Good Luck,

Hank   

I think P means passenger car and T means truck ?

Hank

Did I miss it or is there a link to a Dakota/Pilothouse swap somewhere ?

Not planning to switch just curious,

Hank 

I'm following this thread that's for sure !

Bug Spray Bleeder.jpg

 

Here is my bug spray bleeder.  Only issue is sealing it at the Master Cylinder, since those are straight threads.  I finally used a washer AND tape on the threads and got it sealed.  The bleeding itself only took 20 minutes or so.

 Yours is better,  there won't be any chance ants and roaches getting into your engine. 

Hank 

Let the fun begin hopefully your truck is garaged and you have a heated slab.Hope you'll have time during the winter to work on your brakes and be running in the spring.

Welcome,

Hank 

(my brake job hope it helps)

That should pay for your paint job.

Lucky,

Hank
