What would you do?? - 52 COE Project
ggdad1951 replied to 52b3b Joe's topic in Mopar Flathead Truck Forum
You read my mind....sell it to someone you know who can "hold" the title for 6 months/year and then sell it back. Flipping it quickly (days/weeks) might raise a few eyebrows...might need to take a longer approach with a trustworthy person. -

Stock would be 2 solid mounted on one side and springs on the other end. This allows the frame to flex and not twist the tank. The spring loaded side of the tank should "float" on the springs to allow for this flexture.

The Story about the 53 (Big Boy) B series
ggdad1951 replied to Larr991's topic in Mopar Flathead Truck Forum
Doing a roll back or ramp with PUMA was my original plan, but now I plan to bob the frame and make a trailer hauler. Depending on what you want to haul, a ramp really restricts what you can do, anything bigger than a car gets almost impossible due to height and a tall CG. The COE's are a "cute" ugly. 😛 -

Replacing clutch pedal bushing.

Yah you'll need to pry it out. Then things will slide off. I'd think MAP or propane would suffice for heat. -

Keeping things similar and not moving to a solenoid seems to be the way things were done back in the day. On my COE I do scratch my head...but such a limited run likely didn't necessitate a new direction.
