I've looked everywhere (on the forum and search engines) looking for a correct or even close modern match for the metallic gold paint for 1949-50 Dodge Coronet Gyro-Matic fender script. The original is a satin or flat metallic gold with red "Gyro-Matic" inlay - See photo of a NOS example for reference. I can match the red inlay close enough, but the I haven't been able to find a close match for the satin or flat metallic gold paint. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I know this topic is discussed frequently, but I really don't seem to be finding the information I am looking for. I am wondering what "simple" options there are for transmission swaps for my 50 Dodge Coronet 230 flat head. I know there is the S-10 T5 option, and so far I am leaning in that direction. What I would like to find out is if there are other transmissions that will work as as an easy swap. I'm not too concerned about power loss if there is a viable automatic that is essentially bolt in- Cant be worse the the gyro-matic! I am keeping the internal motor stock, but thinking about a dual carb and split exhaust. I want to leave it 6volt as well. Any help is greatly appreciated!

I am to the point where I can make the bed wood for TANK. (3/4 ton 1950 b2c) Does anybody know how wide the outside boards need to be? I am getting some local maple that was milled and dried from a few trees that had to be cut down in town. it looks like the outside boards are going to be close to 11", and the four inside boards are in the 7 3/4" to 7 7/8" range, and the overall length is 7'-6". I have looked on the pilothouse site and only find info on the 1/2 ton trucks.
