  1. Welcome, My thoughts are enjoy what you have and research what changes you want to make (cost and time). I agree get a book that covers your car to help you become acquainted with the mechanics. Have fun with it
  2. At our age, a reminder is not a bad thing.
  3. WE used burlap under the foam. The wife and I went to a local upholstery supply house, got a good price on every thing needed and they were a wealth of information. here's a couple of pics.
  4. I used Mike at MikeCo (805) 482-1725, he is very knowledgable when it comes to our vehicles
  5. The breaker resets on its own.
  6. I recall a while back Sniper commented on an old mechanics trick of using brake fluid on valves to free them up this might work on the lifters. Do you know if the lifters are locked up or is it the valves? I think I would try to isolate the problem then move forward.
  7. Here's what I did.
  8. Outstanding! love your choice of wheels
  9. Gotta Love it, Welcome to your new adventure. Right place to get answers, sounds like you got a plan. Get as many books that you can that cover your truck and post questions
  10. Welcome, if you want a specific car you just have to look around how hard and how far is up to you. Happy hunting
  11. What are you selling?
  12. Cool truck, your at the right site for info on your truck
  13. There are vendors out there that will sow up seat covers, so you are not limited to a local upholstery shop. A couple of years ago I got prices from some local shops to redo the interior on my 63 Doge Dart GT. Bought sown up seat covers from Legendary, all other items we got from the local upholstery supply house (burlap, foam, glue, hog rings). The wife and I spent a couple of days on the project and spent less than half the cost of having a shop do the work. Here's some pics
  14. Nice, very nice
  15. I've had this setup for several years, Offy intake, 2 stock carbs (no choke) with fenton dual exhaust manifolds. It starts and runs better than it did with one carb, I'm very pleased with the performance and how trouble free the setup has been.
  16. Welcome, very nice ride
  17. This just reminded me, as a kid my dad would use a slight coat of grease on both sides of a copper gasket with no issues. So I did the same for many years until I started to read and follow the manufactures gasket instructions.
  18. On the 54 Plaza wagon I placed the electric fuel pump inside the frame rail on the left side.
  19. You might try McMaster-Carr
  20. I believe those are the correct wheels, the truck is possibly a 3/4 ton. Nice truck
  21. I apologize for taking so long with the pics.
  22. The racks are just a prop
  23. All are 3 speeds
  24. I started digging out parts for my 38 dodge pickup. I got these trannys and wondering their application, here are the case numbers. My hollander (25 edition) did not cover these. 1. 36275-6 also on the case (aotc) 69 NB1 2.36275-6C aotc A12 3.631841-1 aotc 4-26 also have two lids 1. C23461 aotc 10-17-52 2. C36274 aotc NB14 Thanks for the help
  25. Got the wagon done and have been putting some miles on it. The wagon is a fun old ride and gets more attention than my 50.
