51 B3B build thread - after all these years
Young Ed replied to bkahler's topic in Mopar Flathead Truck Forum
Those armrests look like they might be early 50s Plymouth. -
New B-3-B owner with some basic questions
Young Ed replied to ktb's topic in Mopar Flathead Truck Forum
I would suggest trying to turn it via the flywheel. There is a tool for doing that but I've always just used a decent pry bar. You get a lot more leverage using the teeth on the flywheel and only have to remove the inspection cover to gain access -
And yet Tim appears to have more snow than we have!

There was a manufacturing plant of some sort near my Mom's childhood home. They had a mountain of asbestos for use in the plant that apparently kids would play on and sled down.

Hopefully round 2 goes much better. This thread is basically a round 2 for me entirely as it's my second WC build. I am trying to do some stuff differently just to not have 2 identical trucks. Also chatting here has got me excited for spring and to get back on the project
-
There were some trucks with an ash tray cut into the ribbed area. No idea why they discontinued the vertical ribbed area though. Made it a little harder to find a dash to replace the one in the 40 that we butchered in the junkyard

The glass and the frame should remove as a unit from the door. Then it comes apart

I think just one application of stain. You work it into the wood and then let it sit. The longer you do the darker it gets. I probably did 10-15 min before wiping off any extra. Yes this will be the first recoat of the floor. This truck is also outside with the bed only somewhat covered so if you're inside you'll get a much longer lifetime

I believe mine are 185s and they fit. I did have to adjust my steering stops because the tire was rubbing on the pitman arm.
-
I bought these unfinished so I believe I did my testing on a couple scraps. However I think my only test was how long I let the stain sit before wiping it off. I'm probably due to recoat the flood oil at this point.

Are you like me where you always do the passenger side first so you'll see the better result when driving?

What does the title say? Those round bed fenders were 48-52. If the serial number comes back as a 52( I would assume this is what your insurance was looking at) then that is likely what it is. However some states titled vehicles as the year sold vs model year. We had an early model year 50 Plymouth that was titled as a 49

Ya mine sits for 5ish months and I don't do anything beyond hooking the battery back up. By the time it pumps up a little fuel it's already made oil pressure
