Recommended Posts

Happy New year everyone! I would like to take this opportunity to make my 1000th post (finally) in one of my favorite recurring forum topics.

 

Boo-yow!

 

Also, THIS is the year I would like to see Mark, Merle, Jeremiah, and Todd (the back to the 50's gang) caravan out to Clements from the upper mid west in their B-series Dodges!

 

That would be friggin AWESOME!!! Bring a huge copy of that picture with you too.....I've got a place on the wall in my garage for it!

Congrats on 1000 posts!!!

 

I really want to bring my semi one of these years but it won't be this year.   Way to many things on my plate.

 

 

Awesome Christmas present Merle. I am proud to be part of it.

i usually dont chime in on a subject unless i have personal experience or have researched it enough that i feel im giving good information. I dont like giving misinformation when there are so many other knowledgeable people on this forum that can give the correct answer the first time. I havent spent a lot of time wrench on my truck either, so i just choose to keep my mouth shut and learn instead.

 

im still hoping to make it out there this year but work is going to play a large role in that.

I'm struggling with what to bring this year. Have had both the trucks out there on trailers but health has kept me back from working on em. I was hoping to at least "make" one run ...lol..but need my tank (fuel) cleaned and sealed.....anyone have a good source for that? I'm in Hollister but can take it to a reliable place...thanks!

Trying to talk this guy into coming to the BBQ with this truck. This is a NASA built truck. He is only 50 miles from the BBQ. Check his website. This 1941 Dodge COE will blow your MIND!!!!! We sold this truck from the original owner.

I took mine to San Jose Radiator on Lincoln Ave., charged me about $150 (cash only) for clean, seal, paint:  https://www.google.com/maps/@37.3173013,-121.9078076,3a,75y,228.85h,85.86t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sevNdSs7y4FonnG02rRr_LQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656!6m1!1e1

Looks like a good shop that is old car friendly. Are they good to deal with? I could go there on my lunch break.

I just lost my go-to radiator & AC shop up in San Carlos (San Carlos Radiator), the owner sold out to some swindlers up in Millbrae. They want $250 for an AC charge. For sh*ts sake....
