  1. Any other PH Trucks floating around, or were you da man? 48D
  2. Any race motor or muscle car motor I've ever built, has had a double throttle spring for safety. Can't say I've ever seen that kind of set up on the rusty L6's I've tore apart. Will have to wander through the yard and poke around...lol. 48D
  3. This is a video of a 1950 PH Truck......is it similar to the one I showed? I've removed quite a few, the spring rate is similar to any return spring on a 2 or 4bbl Carb from the 70's. Not on every truck, but a side spring to the inner splash shield is used as well. 1948-53 Return Spring 48D
  4. I guess you could do that with a washer bag...I usually do it with my front bumper....lol. 48D
  5. Read it cover to cover....then read it again. That way you know when to feel guilty about the little things only you know are "wrong"..... 48D
  6. I'll get you the right one.....send me a PM with your addy and I'll send it free of charge.....most likely it'll be the one in the video. Oh....hope you liked and subscribed to my channel...lol 48D
  7. 48-49 are the same needing some paperwork to truly know the difference. They all came with stainless steel grille bars. 1950 is different in a few ways, but hard to tell apart from a street corner. If it has a pull brake from the dash vs the floor, it's most likely a 50. 1948-50 are often considered the best years of the 48-53 era....well, by me. So, good job...Viva la 48-50!!!!! 48D
  8. I'm betting his dad regrets buying him that Charger. 48D
  9. Is that an after market add on, to pressurize the cooling system? Never seen that before. 48D
  10. E37Bruco, trailer it a lil south, turn right, head west til you smell the pacific ocean, turn right into my driveway, park it next to my herd of 1.5 and 2 ton trucks and wait for the next BBQ in April. Don't tell Dodgeb2ya or BrentB2B........ 48D
  11. lol ....pretty sure working on "The Brick' in 2016 for the wedding gave me that Thor like feeling....I think I removed the rubber door stops too...I like the "Clang!" Of steel in the morning. 48D
  12. Had a great yesterday! I made a video to go with it...of course I'm no Spielberg....but I did record most of what I did. Hey Tooljunkie...out there somewhere is a pilothouse build someone did with the whole PT Cruiser dash. It fit like a glove. 48D Estrada MotorSports 1948-53 Dodge Trucks: The Humpback Episode
  13. My day started with my granddaughter' 6th birthday party ?.....now that I'm home, I can finish with IWOYTD!! priorities, priorities.... 48D
  14. Where's the pictures ED? It was my understanding there would be pictures.? 48D
  15. My favorite is the roadside markers.....I collect them for no good reason.....they look pretty clean and original. 48D

  18. "I am his wife Esmey; Please let everyone now that my husband passed away 11/22/21"? Frank Elders Rest in peace my friend. Tim aka 48Dodger
  19. #BER ELEVEN!!!!! NUMBER 11!!!!! Freakin' #11 IWOYTD!!! This year it will be on MAY 14th The Five Rules: 1. Work on your Truck. Not a Hybred, not a Moepee'd , not a Ferd or a Chevee......well, unless any of them are a truck, then I guess its Ok. 2. Report what you did to the Forum.....not the girl at the post office, she doesn't care, she's just trying to get the junk mail sent to you. 3. Post a picture of what you did. Its all good, sitting in it counts.....but at least hold a hammer or something. 4. Explain how you got the truck, what inspires you about it. 5. Try to share the days experience as soon as you can!!! Sharing is caring!!!.....Believe it or not, your story could inspire one of us to get back to it! Your story could help build another truck!!! Good luck!!!! PLAN FOR THE DAY!!! Bonus rule: 6. Show us a few pictures of what you plan to work on before the big day. 48D
  20. I am so sorry.....you have my condolences. Frank always made me laugh with some of his posts. Tim aka 48Dodger
  21. I've chopped a ton of wood, but I've never thrown axes before. I threw so many bullseyes, that they (wife and friends) stopped counting and started talking about me going pro....lol. Musta been the truck. 48D
  22. I have found a few with plugs.....but it has been pointed out to me (I think Merle ?) that they look to be "Facet Hole covers"...super common. But they might be original to the design, but the jury is still out my opinion. 48D
  23. I think you meant to say " ....seems like the B1-B2's are better then the B3 and 4's. " I'll get the moderator to fix it. 48D
  24. "whittle-it-yerself special"....lol. I think that makes up about 90% of the rescued trucks I have around my place ? 48D
