  1. And here I thought the single wheel 1 ton was a recent design, Ya learn something new everyday!
  2. A couple of 3/4 ton trucks then, I'll take a closer look next time I'm by there.
  3. Can only do 1 pic per post because of pic size
  4. My Nephew moved into his new house & did some exploring & found these nearby. He said the "dually" was last tagged in 2006. I'm wondering if they were both duallys & both outside wheels have been removed from one of them? I haven't seen these myself yet but will next time I visit my nephew but he did say both trucks looked complete.
  5. Someone should grab it just for the stainless grill!
  6. I do get most of my parts on ebay but I still like checking out the swap meets even though I know there won't be any old MoPar stuff.
  7. Fire trucks get to park anywhere they want!
  8. Just ordered the shirts myself, going to see if I can get them to make the dream garage into a banner
  9. Finally got around to sorting thru the swag & saw this from Laid back garage They also have this on a T shirt as well as a T shirt with the Pilothouse on it. check out http://www.laidbackusa.com
  10. Well I survived another SEMA with no more than sore feet & a hangover so a successful trip! Here's some pics of the only old Dodge that I spotted in Vegas.
  11. ​Interesting thread, there seems to be more than 1 style of mirrors on the 53 Which ones are "correct"? Such as what was stock & what was optional. The ones for my 53 are the same as Townwagon showed in his post Drivers side Passenger side
  12. Yea the place is huge! I went there for the Consumer Electronics show (international CES) in 2011 & went to SEMA last year too. Absolutely something a real car guy needs to do. And if I remember right no ticket is required for the outside car show, displays & shows, also one of the best shows is the "drive out" at 5 PM on friday when all cars that actually run leave the building, it's also open to the public.
  13. your impressions are correct, I "know a guy" that got us vendors tickets.
  14. I'm going to Vegas next Monday-Saturday for the SEMA show, anyone here going? Maybe meet up for a drink & swap stories.
  15. On the fire department we considered statements like that to be job security!
  16. There are some SS around, some were hidden under paint I'm guessing because it was easier than straightening damaged SS. I have 3 good grill bars & a pair of whiskers but am missing the parking light buckets & trim.
  17. I spent 28 years as a Firefighter, I started in 81 when use of Self Contained Breathing Apparatus was still "optional". While I do not recommend being in any dusty, smokey or sooty area without a mask of some sort pflaming cleaning out his burnt shop was most likely no worse than spending time in a smokey bar. That's assuming there was no toxic chemicals in the mix. I wouldn't worry too much but I do recommend use of filter masks in such conditions.
  18. Lets hope the Prowler comes out in better shape than the 57 did!
  19. And after some more fabrication I have completed the new grill. I need to repaint the grill medallion the same color as the hubcaps.
  20. The only Stock one I've seen was made of a heaver gauge metal but that's all I noticed. I haven't seen a NOS one but I can tell you the chrome on the reproduction is just beautiful! I need to get the stock wheels restored & or order the new wheels before they go on my truck, they don't fit the rally wheels on my truck.
  21. I'm almost finished with the new grill install, just a couple of u nuts short.
  22. The reverse just for the heck of it! Was wheel shopping & liked the artillery wheels & the place had an old original hub cap hanging on the wall.
