Drove the one ton today on a “pre-64 poker run” It was “OK”, we drove thru the back roads of the “Willamette Valley”,

I had the only Dodge truck and only flathead

The temperature was 75deg outside, the truck did OK, there were 5 stops total and it was only about 100 miles. The third and last stop I wasn’t sure it was gonna start..... kinda seemed like when I shut it off, it took some effort to get fuel back into the carburetor after about a half hour.
 

the other issue was the oil pressure started the day out at 40 psi and by the end of the dropped at an idle to around 10-20 psi (but, i guess it is a tired motor)


But I made it, glad I brought the lumbar support 

 

and yeah my poker hand was a flop ?

but the “grain belt” ones are still hanging in there LOL

 

Catching everyone else up, GGDad and JohnT

set (Not attached) the grain belt caps under the hood about 4yrs ago in CA. They made it back to CA and BTT50’s on my trailer and to several shows  around my area.... I must be a great driver LOL
