daimlerchryslerman Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 Hi guys, This is a picture of my 1950 Fargo Grain Truck from Alberta. It is semi retired in Langley B.C. Thanks Ray Morris 1 Quote
Reg Evans Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 That's really cool Ray. A job rated truck still doing the job it was rated for. Is the conveyor thingamabob really operational? Quote
daimlerchryslerman Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 Hi Reg, Yes the hay elevator works. I used to use my tractor bucket for hay but it takes all day ! I could actually throw it up from the Fargo box cuz its so high. Here is a pic of my dump box up. Thanks Ray Morris 1 Quote
52B3B108 Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 There are pictures of my trucks below if I did the link to my Car Domain correctly. The '83 was sold last winter but it ran really well for everything it had been put through. Quote
52B3B108 Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 Let me try this again. Hopefully my signature with the Car Domain link will show up. Quote
Merle Coggins Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 Let me try this again. Hopefully my signature with the Car Domain link will show up. You have to have the "show signitures" check box checked, in the Control Panel Options area, to be able to see your signiture. By the way, when I click on your Car Domain link I can't get in.

Big50Dodge Posted October 27, 2006 Report Posted October 27, 2006 Here's Mine. Pic's are from about 2 years ago. Currently, I'm working on taking the box off. Going to replace the wood & repair the rust as I go. 1 Quote

Merle I just tried the link and it worked for me, Merle. Maybe someone else will test it and give another opinion so I know if I have to do something different. Quote
Merle Coggins Posted October 28, 2006 Report Posted October 28, 2006 Just tried it again from home. It worked fine this time. Nice looking truck too. Must have been something with my work computer. Quote
Dennis_MN Posted October 29, 2006 Report Posted October 29, 2006 I'm new to this forum and new to the Dodge PilotHouse, although I've been looking for a project for a long time. Here are two pictures of the pickup that I bought two weeks ago in St. Cloud, MN. Right now I'm rebuilding the front brakes before it goes into storage for the winter.

Guest drlocke53 Posted November 6, 2006 Report Posted November 6, 2006 I'm a newbie to this forum but I've had my B-4-B116 for 25 years. And used it very hard over those years, hauling heavy loads of hay, sawdust, firewood, coal, cinder blocks, bricks, equipment, etc...Upon first obtaining the truck in '81 I did some body work on it and touch-up painted it by the low-budget method since I was young and poor. The hood had since been scratched and then DAed down and primered. I rebuilt the engine from top to bottom back in '87. It needed it. I took the truck off the road a few years ago, and intend to do a better job with cosmetics, as the previous body repairs are now 25 years old. And, yes, the truck is a Spring Special. 1 Quote
46mopar. Posted November 11, 2006 Report Posted November 11, 2006 Heres a bad pic of my shop truck project. Now that my D-24 is back together I'll be digging this out and getting it done. 1 Quote
IanT_Qld Posted November 11, 2006 Report Posted November 11, 2006 46mopar Are you rodding or restoring? Actually reading your profile implies rodding, should be an awesome rig when finished. Quote

Ian, this truck was to far gone to restore. Its going to be a rod. Once I get it out where I can take some good pics I'll show off the sub frame swap and other stuff I've done. I'm trying to keep it all mopar we been calling it "anti-chevy shop truck" Later John 1 Quote
Mike Meade Posted November 11, 2006 Report Posted November 11, 2006 This is my 48 B1B when I brought it home many years ago.It had been sitting in a farmers field for 6 years with the hood and head off,I could'nt save the motor but did find a 230 out of a 57 plymouth.I have since restored it mechanically from the frame up.still lots of body and interior work to do. 1 Quote

Vintrader Posted November 27, 2006 Report Posted November 27, 2006 Here, is my 51 B3C 116 Express. I first saw this truck on the Pilot House From. A member had seen it for sale in Chico,Ca. It was built in San Leandro,Ca. and purchased by a family that had a chicken farm in Paradise,Ca. in 1951. It was used to deliver eggs to the local grocery stores. The owner had just listed it on Ebay and I won the auction. I had it shipped from Ca. to Az. in the fall of 2005 and then transported myself from Az. to NY. in May of 2006. I put it on the road here in NY in Nov 2006 and I drive almost every day. I do not plain on doing a full restoration as the old girl is in pretty good shape right down to the original Judson Green factory cab and bed paint. Every time I get in the truck, it takes me right back to childhood and my Grandfathers Judson Green Pilot House Truck. Even the smell is the same.

Vintrader Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 Well I thought I would throw another one in the ring. I know it is not a Pilot House. But a fine looking Truck just the same. It is a 1/2 Ton Long Bed with a nice little 318. Runs like a champ. Dutch Quote
Merle Coggins Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 I love those trucks too. If I didn't get this Pilot-house project I probably would have looked for a Power Giant like that one. Cool Truck, Merle Quote
Vintrader Posted November 28, 2006 Report Posted November 28, 2006 Thanks Guys, I am glad you like the trucks. I think is one of the best club web sites I have seen. Bob has done a great job and I am sure he puts in some long hours to pull this off, my hat is off to him. I just have a question? So many members are listing great trucks here on the form but not in DPETCA Members' Trucks Pilothouse Garage and Gallery, Myself included but I am going to change that today. I seems a little complicated to do, I am not a computer nut so it takes me awhile to figure these things out. Any help or anything that would ease this process I think would get info on a lot more members trucks just a mouse click away. Thanks again, from a very happy member. Dutch Quote
