Jim Roach Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 Robert, I know where your coming from. A while back I misspelled a word and someone was more interested in correcting my spelling than helping me with my problem. Lets all try to stick to the issues rather than make fun of others. Thanks, Jim Roach Quote
Clinton_Reeser Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 I don't care how many words you guys mispell. I am here for the knowledge of these old trucks that you guys have. I can figure out what you guys are trying to say. None of us are perfect. If we were, we wouldn't be on here asking for advice. Speaking of all the knowledge, I would like to thank everyone for all the knowledge that has been passed on to me. This site has become a part of my daily routine now. So guys lets stick to what we know best, which is trucks! Quote
bkahler Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 Robert, does your 49 parts truck still have the oil bath air cleaner? If so I'm looking for an original one. See my ad in the parts wanted section. I've attached pictures of the style I'm looking for. I'm out of town for 3 days and won't be able to respond back until then. Thanks, Brad Quote
Robert Thornton Posted February 16, 2007 Author Report Posted February 16, 2007 BRAD I havent picked it up yet, but i'm sure it does. If not he has some old parts ill try to get you one. I'm sure you wont the original. hope to get part of it sunday, will let you know. robert Quote
