  1. hahahaha, I forgot I even started this thread.... age, its a beautiful thing...... welcome and what a great project!!!!
  2. I agree with 48D, Paul has been a sponge and the results show!!!! I find it exciting to see the progress, both on his truck and his mechanical intellegence!!
  3. hahaha, you are right Mr. 48D, I know you have been lookin for parts and the one I was referring to might make the one you have the parts panel...... just sayin....... Mr Tim Adams, you look booked up into your next life....:D
  4. Hey Tim, the pilothouse site on facebook has a complete panel for sale.... in case you havent seen it yet.
  5. early 50's Dodge passenger car I think
  6. I might be interested in the grille bars if they are available. PM me a price. I cut a lower one down for my custom grille, but would rather have another upper instead. Bud
  7. Peel and seal can be found at Home Depot. I got the small rolls, but apparently it comes in larger sizes too
  8. last coat of PC-7 on it. I should be able to prime it this week.
  9. I'm using 15 inch full wheel covers off a DODGE automobile on mine. I think they look fine, but then again I am not a purist.......
  10. Tom, I found the one that I had. When the pair from Mark get here and I can compare, I will get this one sent to you if this one is indeed correct.
  11. nice, how about a shot from the rear?
  12. thanks Tom, I can pm you my address.
  13. I need one door hinge bolt, I have 15 of the 16, but have misplaced the one. Anyone have an extra??? It is for my 1953. I have noticed the removable hinge plates have smaller hole on the older models of trucks. Is it alright to "open" the holes and go ahead and use them? One of my uppers is shot and I have a spare, but from an older truck.
  14. gud on u pual..........
  15. Tom, do you just need one? I am buying two, but I think I have one here at the house. When these arrive, I will let you know. I will be out of town till Friday, but can check this weekend.
  16. just checking......
  17. I like!!!!! Good job,it looks like it belongs there.
  18. I got the "DODGE" insignia welded in place today, so its about as done as it is gonna get for now. Ya think this will make a reasonable facimile for a tailgate???
  19. I need to put in for my vacation for next year in November and this will be on my first choice list, I just need to know the date!!!
  20. although I dont have one to compare, are the ones on the bay the same as the ones on our trucks??? I seem to remember they looked vastly different, but what do I know.......
  21. so it is the correct visor?? Hank has me worried.......
  22. didn't get to work in the shop on the truck, but I did get to bring home a right side sun visor and an outside sun visor that came off my adopted dads pilothouse before he gave it to his twin grandkids. I got the best end of the deal, the truck is a rusty mess!!!!!
  23. Went over to the west side of the mountains this weekend and my adopted dad gave me a right side sun visor!! He also gave me an outside visor that was stuffed in the front seat of his old pilothouse. He specifically pulled these grabbed these two parts for me before giving the truck to his twin grandsons. The visor is a great score for sure, but the outside visor is pretty bent up and is missing the side pieces. It is aluminum and has a "crosshatch" on the outer panels that would make straightening pretty darn difficult. I don't know if I can use the outside visor, but that inside visor will be a great addition.
  24. That roof looks real fixable, I sure wouldnt even think of replacing it either. A little bit of filler and it will look like new!!!
  25. Welcome MikeC. You have come to the right place!! Great trucks, Great guys and Great info. With a combo like that, you can't lose!!!! Looking forward to the pics of what you have now and what you get later.
