has anyone found a source for the mirrors on our trucks? is there any other mirrors that will work? i was thinking of west coast mirrors as a last resort i dont really want them but may have to go that way. what do you think?

happy thanksgiving to all. hope everyone has plenty to eat and is well.

yea that is not a good time to be out working on your truck. the weather here in tn is a lot better

those are cool pictures i like the old pics especially when you know the story behind them.

thanks for the info

are you sure its oil and not brakefluid on the wheel

will the mirrors from a 48 truck fit a 1950 truck or are the hinges a different size?

well im getting around to my windows on my truck and after checking out some of the treads i found thst if im going to go with a full glass in my doors looks like im going to have to get a pair of the channels to go in front of my glass to guide it up and down is this correct? ive posted on parts wanted and looked on parts for sale. are these scarce? is there a place where they can be bought new? any info appreciated.

hello. i was out playing with my truck this evening and i noticed something odd. i had a friend start it up and rev theengine a little and when he did i saw the front of the water pump fan and all move forward toward the radiator. ive been reading the treads not having much luck finding anything on that back and forth movement.is my water pump wore out? do i need to replace it? whats your thoughts? any input will be appreciated and thanks in advance.

hello everyone, i hope youall had a great thanksgiving. i went out to the shop this morning and had to build a fire. while i waited for things to warm up i got out my hubcaps one had a crack in it so i got my grinder and was going to repar it. i sure was surprised to find brass under the paint and crud.i polished one up and it has brass skin on it. ichecked the others and they do too. i didnt know this. has anybody else found brass hubcaps? I also painted my running boards today. ive read previous treads about posting pics but i still cant get them to show up.

what kind of gas do you run in your flathead? i have heard of additives such as lead that one can add to the fuel. i was wondering if anybody does put anything in their fuel?

im at it again; this time its the back spring shakles. i got the passenger side with no problem. the drivers side is a whole new story. when i put a wrench on the bottom one that goes through the spring it broke off. ive tried heat and now leting it soak in wd40. are those springs threaded inside or is it just rusted together? or do i just need a bfh and drive it out the other side? tell me what you think thanks.

i was just wondering how long you guys worked on your trucks. i dont think i will ever get finished. i have worked on mine for 15 months and still have a ways to go. seems like one thing just leads to another. ido have my cab insulated and ordered a firewall pad. i am going to try to get pictures up this afternoon. wifes got a digital camera and im hoping i can figure it out.its funny a guy can dismantle a truck and reassemble it but the high tech world gives me a fit. guess ill have to find a 10 year old to show me ha ha. more later.
