48WingNut Posted December 31, 2006 Report Posted December 31, 2006 Here's a few of mine. Rebuilt the carb and installed new plugs yesterday so I thought I'd sneak it out for a ride (no plates yet). 2 Quote
Jim Gaspard Posted January 15, 2007 Report Posted January 15, 2007 My B3B frame off restoration is going real slow...month 15. I just had to have a driver. Picked up this B3B in Chatanooga just before Christmas, great template for my project. Jim B3BX2+B3C in Dallas Quote
52B3B108 Posted January 15, 2007 Report Posted January 15, 2007 Nice truck Jim. What was done to make the box sides flat like that? Did they weld some flat sheetmetal? Quote
Young Ed Posted January 15, 2007 Report Posted January 15, 2007 Those look like 39-47 bed sides. Quote
Jim Gaspard Posted January 15, 2007 Report Posted January 15, 2007 Good question, sharp eye. Everything else on the truck is stock including bed. I was told this was a barn and church truck for many years and saw very little use. I'll compare with my frame-off truck sides. I thought the bed sides were the same on both. Jim B3B in Dallas Quote

Clinton_Reeser Posted January 19, 2007 Report Posted January 19, 2007 Here are some pics of my parts truck that I just retrieved from the farm. It has had a hard life. I still haven't got around to taking pics of the one I am restoring. Quote
Guest LEMON-AID JAY Posted January 24, 2007 Report Posted January 24, 2007 Some of you may want to shoot me for this but here is my 53 NOT STOCK . I do off road recovery and this will be the new recovery truck Quote
Merle Coggins Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 Byron (Byronb3b) sent me a pic of his truck and asked me to post it here you you guys. I figured this would be the appropiate thread to use. Nice looking truck Byron. He also mentioned that he's been thinking about selling his wife's '65 Barracuda and getting this Imperial l 2 Quote
Young Ed Posted January 29, 2007 Report Posted January 29, 2007 Wow the truck and the imperial are both awesome. I'd love any mopar from 56! Quote
52B3B108 Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 I agree. Both of those would look good in my driveway. Quote

How far off the road are you going and what are you recovering. what about motor, you must have something to move those monsters and how do you get in.. (how far off the ground is the frame) Quote

pflaming Posted November 28, 2010 Report Posted November 28, 2010 You've seen these before but since someone asked. The color changed by using lacquer thinner and wet sandpaper. Clear coat is next. A son and two grandchildren at home has stalled my program. I enjoy the seeing the skills of those who share and are sharing. Seasons' Holidays to All! Quote
