John-T-53

Nice bid'ness coupe! I saw an exact one like that years ago here in California - '52 or '53. It had a V-8 too, not sure if it was a hemi or poly.

Yup, between 65 and 70. When I had earplugs in, I tended to go faster, haha....

"OD" as he's known, about to head out in his '93 Cummins, back to Escalon. There was also a similar or equal year truck that showed up, a dualie (no photo, unfortunately). The two owners connected, and an exchange of parts is planned in the near future. Heading back down the 101 for the return trip.... F the 5.

We always get at least one or two orphan makes at this event each year. Jim's brother's silver Kaiser showed up again, and below is Charlie's '55 Nash, with body design by Pininfarina of Torino. I really enjoyed this car. AMC's thrifty 195-6. Note: no intake manifold. The exhaust "manifold" is just a steel pipe with cutouts bolted to the block. "Brendt" strikes a pose. Best of show award Really hope to see this COE on the road next year! The aftermath of Joe's Motorhome debacle on Sunday.... photo credit: @48Dodger

Hunkering down around the fire whilst a cell passes overhead.... and opinions being expressed over which (wet) wood pieces to burn...lol

Here's my pics.... Heading out of SLO county on the 41.... "El Puto Cinco" Joe's Truck awaiting its dismount Bud's Truck just having rolled out of the trailer

So you moved out of the big LA I take it..... or was it OC.

SF, 1950s.... The route van might be an International Metro, not sure.

The head was replaced with a new one (and gasket too). Not sure what specifics on his engine are. It used to run on the cool side, now it runs on the hot side - not overheating, but he has to watch it. When under load it gets hotter and a couple times he's pulled over to let it cool. I think the water pump was replaced too.... I thought might be blockage or sediment somewhere...? A pond for bathing? haha.... too many frogs and toads out there....

See replies above in "Red".... Also, Orlando is bringing his '92 Cummins again this year and has questions about engine temp for the experts.... it's running hot despite replacing the head, t-stat, etc....

SCS looks legit. I hadn't heard of them before. I see they offer many materials and in addition to cutting out shapes, they do bending, threading, fabricating, and plating. This should greatly expand the horizons on restoration needs. They could probably even make a new battery box from the template that was posted on here or DPETCA years ago. I'm an AutoCAD person, so my project list is growing as fast as I can draw, lol...

They don't accept .dwg files?

Get that zero turn ready for action too! lol....

...hey, that would work if you're making a scale model of something. 😂
