  1. Right on Joe! Three weeks ago? Sounds like we were on the road at the same time... you should have “face timed” me..... too funny we both told our wives the same story about “knocking things out around the house” ? ok, what’s our next reason for putting off the house repairs? oh yeah, I almost forgot thanks again Rob for the clip
  2. Got him off the trailer last week and parked him, with every intention of not touching this truck until I’ve checked a few items off my “chores list” yeah right! (I have no will power) No Compression, so I pulled the inner fender, the front wheel and both tappet covers. I think I lucked out, the #4 intake valve was stuck open pulled the spark plug, worked the intake closed and open and threw some oil down the cylinders with the valves closed. Compression seems to be back.... NOW I will let him sit for a while ?
  3. Ha! I knew it! And the green glass also makes it look bigger than mine, LOL
  4. When I worked at the fast lube shops we carried zerk fittings (but in the 80’s and 90’s more vehicles had fittings) I guess the photos are deceiving, the “H-200-DR” kinda looks tapered https://saeproducts.com/ptf-grease-fittings.html Side note, this was one of my favorite lube tips back in the day ? https://www.amazon.com/Lincoln-Lubrication-5883-Slotted-Coupler/dp/B000G76OMA
  5. Don’t know if it was tinted or not back then, but I went clear on mine.
  6. what vehicle you working on Paul? you mentioned VPW but, also mentioned a "flex hose"
  7. I remember reading that also.... I haven't seen it on my trucks either (yet) on the windshield install, right or wrong, on my b3b I will install the column first, then the glass, then the steering wheel.... (but, I usually over think things )
  8. Me three, the B4D has wing windows without the 1/4 glass. I open the cowl vent and wing windows and tell Julie It’s the “A/C” And “hang on” got to say, I love the no seat belts.... If I hit a corner just right, she slides right over to me ?
  9. I went used, over the recent years I bought my Lincoln mig, Lincoln stick and gas set up for less than $600. For all three (bottles included ?)
  10. Oh, How about? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxzO_Oy1EMLITldMTGxpYmwzakE/view
  11. Are these what your looking for? https://dcmclassics.com/suspension-parts/254-s-299-r-shackle-bushing-kit-right-hand.html
  12. Good looking truck Joe. Welcome You mentioned the rear brakes, does this mean you have inspected the fronts already? In my opinion it is worth going through the whole system. my parking brake cable was also stuck on a B4, I ended up pulling the cable out, cleaning it with a wire wheel and working it in a bench vice while lubricating it. Don’t loose those retainer clips ?
  13. Here is some back history I am gonna call him “Jim-bob” ?
  14. Lol, Here’s a picture for ya ?
  15. hey, I think your on to something there found another photo, 53' interior from the Clements BBQ a few years back storage for gloves and a hat shown here.... (gloves to push the non- Mopar out of the way, the hat kinda blocks the sun glare in your eyes from their back window LOL)
  16. Dude, I am gonna call you “king of the search function” for the rest of this month ? don’t forget ggdad1951
  17. What “build request form” are you using? https://www.chryslerclub.org/PDF files/Chrysler_Historical_Build_Record_Request.pdf
  18. I sent a request on February 26th this year for my GA via email. Danielle at FCA emailed me saying expect something in 3-4weeks. I followed up at 6weeks, turns out the mail was delayed so she sent me a “jpg” file of my build card. Never received the mailed copy but, printed the photo so I’m happy ?
  19. lets see a photo of the truck with the new rim color Bruce, having withdrawals since we didn't do the BBQ this year
  20. I have one ? And my B3D chassis has a little different setup
  21. Amen, x $.02 ? my b3b has a car engine (Plymouth 218) i am confident nobody but a hand full of folks on this forum will ever know it isn’t original
  22. Don’t know about the tennies but I am a fan of my boots, Spendy but worth it!! this pair lasted me over a year. (Compared to the 4-6mo for cheaper brands) I am with Rob, I am willing to pay for quality (Just wish they would hold up to the chain saw LOL)
  23. Ok Rob, I’m starting to think you don’t care for China built parts LOL, hey, good news, last condenser I bought at Napa said “made in Mexico” but come to think about it, it was probably made in China and assembled in Mexico ?
  24. visual aid the numbers IAT 4103 is what I found Napa looks for
