Brings back fond memories of my career as an alignment technician,,,bent these axles and the twin I beam....porta-powers.
I'd like to hold the flashlight for him just to listen to all the funny comments about all the hacks that worked on the truck previously
I Have a truck like that..present in the past same problem with the chassis
I have it all my life..used to work in a farm.....never give up...
its not going anywhere for now. it is in storage until i have time to work on it again.

Crown vic cop car chassis - drop the cab and bed on and go,,,,,, I put a 6.9 diesel in my last 58 3/4 ton but if I do it again I'll do a crown vic frame - thanks for taking us along Tatro - brings back memories! - I also tilted my front dog house - super simple to do - if interested I'll explain!
i am building a truck, not a stupid car. you can't put two bikes into a car with all your gear and haulass to the track.

Don't listen to Fred. That is one cool truck. Good choice on the Cleveland 400.
That kustom motor mount takes the cake.
only the best money could buy.

"It's 12PM. I'm done workin on other folks crap. Time to work on my own." lol love it man.

EVERYONE HAS LOST THEIR MINDS GOING TO CROWN VIC change overs I'm with you straight axle is the best,i assume you're using the b engine mopar for another swap as it is a better engine than the Cleveland ford,wrenching is wrenching bike or 58 f100 enjoy tatro
Tatro, I see that you call the pin that secures the nut on a ball joint a "cotter key". What then do you call the bolt with the tapered side that holds on the crank on old school bicycles that has a nut that pulls the taper tight ?
I know them as cotter pins but correctly they are simply cotters. I call the others split pins as they split and secure in the castle nut from winding off if it were to come loose.
Also to get off tapered ball joints I use a heavy hammer as a dolly on the eye of the link and bash the other side and the shock always loosens the taper. Early days used to bash on the bolt with the nut on , mash up the bolt so then the nut wouldnt come off but the balljoint was off the taper so you couldnt get the nut off. Would then have to remove whole stub axle and get another one off a wreck. There was an area near where I grew up where old cars were always dumped Saturday night so Sunday morning early would go out with a parts list of what I needed. Spark plugs, leads ,door winders pedal rubbers etc.All good fun in the day.
it was late and i was tired so you get what you get. i was just having some fun and now you are picking on me.

Keep it ford.it is kind of rare to find a step side. I had a 67 Chevy step side. Not many out there now.
No scrapo yet .weld in sheet metal though.
if i put a chevy badge on it fred will help work on it.
tatro
Fix it up .get a cheapo paint job make it look nice. Get rid of the drum brakes up front. Painless wiring harness from summit. Put shop colors on it.
time will tell. maybe i should just scrap it like fred wants me to do with it.
tatro

I like to use cardboard as well washing machine refrigerator boxes
Well it would appear the prior owner was probably a kid, or want to be fabricator. However it looks like she has good bones to make her right! Good luck with the old girl.....
*If the truck has "my 383 dodge motor" in it doesn't that mean you or someone you know installed that motor? Just wondering.*
i purchased the ford truck for the motor to put into my 1954 studebaker truck. i have a 400 ford motor to put into the ford if i have time and don't do something else. the truck has been sitting for years so i need to do something with it. sell it or fix it.
tatro
Who was the Nut that owed this truck before you got it ?
Hey tatro when you do an oil change on a car how do you know how much to put back in?
when it comes out the valve covers you have too much. when it knocks you don't have enough.
tatro
A how-to video with added humour
are those mosquitos or crows?
we have both around here.
tatro
If it's a pile of crap you must not have any real care for it. so why not get rid of it.ether u respect it or u dont.
just something to play with. if i screw it up i am not really out anything. its not too late to come buy it.
tatro
dad have one
