Lets see pic of your trucks

[ggdad1951]

funny, I glossed over the initial sentance of your post and noticed the one ton front drums and went back and saw you actually called it a "D" already!

[NiftyFifty]

Thought I had posted my 50 D in this thread before but I guess not...here it is this summer with my 67 Dodge Monaco 500.

Here's my project after getting it mounted on the Dakota frame. Had to shorten frame 22". Keeping fuel injected 3.9 and od from Dakota. Have to change front hubs and get grand Cherokee rear end with four link under it yet.

Light is caught at sunrise. Dark is caught at sunset.

That looks like the terrain around here. 

[DJ194950]

First light caught at sunrise?, last light caught at sunset?.

[JBNeal]

had to catch the light at sunset before it got away...catching light at sunrise don't take much skill cuz it's a-comin' right at ya

[Don Coatney]

First light caught at sunrise?, last light caught at sunset?.

By the time you catch the last light at sunset it isn't. Easier to catch the first dark at sunset as it will be around for a while.

When one sees the light at the end of the tunnel, is that sunrise or sunset?

sometimes it's a train

Probably sunset for you especially if the light is accompanied with an air horn.

A friend is the coach of a local high school tennis team, so we used the truck for a photo-op. The boys loved the shoot.

Great picture Paul. It reminds me of the 2011 trip to the Bonneville Saltflats with "The Brick".

 

My son and I were having some difficultly with the fuel pump, ignition and handling. With just the two of us...it was frustrating to say the least. Right next to us was a huge number of students from Utah Valley University. They were from the Auto program and had brought a tricked out El Camino. Of course they had to many hands and I didn't have enough. lol. With all the heat, blood, sweat, and tears....I yelled (with a smile) to their pit area...."How bout ya stop looking my way and get your butt over here and show me you're not wasting your parents money! " lol.....got a good laugh from everyone...we met...talked..worked...and took a cool picture. I must have had about 15 cameras in my hands to get a picture for everyone.

Well, everybody, Here is my Wrecker-to-Be! I grew up in a truck shop from 56 on, and my Dad and Granddad only used Mopar for shop trucks as well as personal vehicles! Great, Now it wont let me post pics!

Oh, well at least I got it no as my profile pic!

here are a few of my '52 B3B. - BobB Alabama

Nice balance of chrome and color. I like the visor, mirrors, GRILLE, and the door chrome 'arm rest'. 

[BobB]

Thanks. I can't take credit for the choices made thus far. I'm mainly trying to pick up where the previous owner left off. Restoring a heater, got Keven Patty to refinish the gauges, and getting things fixed so she can be a daily driver. having loads of fun " tinkering" with my toy.

Bob,

 

Super Nice Truck Welcome! Would you mind taking a close up of one of the the hooks along the bed. I inherited a few, not sure they are original and want to compare them to yours.

 

Thanks,

As I'm still restoring my '48, I thought I'd put up a few of my former Dodges for fun (a few of my 1980s bachelor years trucks).  The '25 had a strong flathead four with a silent start combination starter/generator.  Paid around $1000, sold it for $3000.  That's a '37 Ford behind it.  The '35 was a beaut, all original, steel bed, hydraulic brakes, a fun daily driver.  Bought it for $2200, sold it for $3500.  The '52 looks pretty much like my '48 with the longer bed and side mount.  Thought it was a 1/2 ton, could it have been a 3/4 like my '48?  Paid $600 for it, put in a new battery, gas, oil, and air and off I went.  Drove it for a long time without so much as a tune-up as I recall, was very impressed with its durability.  Sold it for $2000.  Shoulda kept them all.

Thanks, Hank. Here is a close-up of one of the hooks. I have no reason to think they are necessarily original, but I do like the look of them. they were on the truck when I got it. Hopefully you can see the hook well. I took it from the shady side, but it's awfully bright out.
