Dodgeed

That is a 1940 Dodge truck located in a truck museum in New Zealand. The pictures came from another car web page.

Thought y'all might like looking at my '51.

I know what you mean about everything starting up when there is a slight warm-up and you get out into the garage and it's a joy to have them all running smoothly. When I lived in Western Pa, the month of January was typically brutal winter weather with temperatures well below freezing and snow on the ground. No taking out the old vehicles for several weeks, if for no other reason, to avoid leftover salt on the roads. Next week there is supposed to be a warm up above normal temperatures; I suspect there will be lots of old vehicles out running around. Enjoy your day!

Getting old isn't for Sissies!

Yeah, I've been in similar situations, driver behind me too close and passing unsafely and seeing him do it again and again down the road. I always remind myself, he's just an A**Hole and he does it to everyone, not just me. I find listening to slow oldies helps in these situations.

It fits under the bed, in the back. Mine is just for show, it isn't functional.

Welcome to the Forum. I also have a '51.

I feel for you. My three current Old Vehicles all have malfunctioning gas gages. Four of my previous Old Vehicles were similarly situated. And, my first vehicle in high school, which was 8 y/o at the time, also had a malfunctioning gas gage, as I found out on the very first tank, when I thought I had a half full tank, according to the needle, only to run out unexpectedly. These days, when I fill up, I log the date & mileage and keep an eye on it and estimate when I'll need more as I move along thru the cruise season. Haven't run of gas again in the past 30 or 40 years.

Great looking truck. Love that suicide knob. I've got to get one of those too.

In '64, I'd bought my first car, a '56 Ford, with blackwalls, naturally. So, since the cool cars had whitewalls, and since I couldn't afford those, I bought cheap Portawalls, and had them installed. I guess from 10 feet back, they looked "okay". I really don't remember, but I do remember they weren't as good as 'real' whitewalls. So much for having a cool car. Scheeesh.
