  1. 99% of the people that looked at it wouldn’t know the difference. i had to go look my self.
  2. Buy the whole truck. be the most expensive fenders. 10.000 its 30 miles from me.
  3. I may have the headlamp support brackets that go inside the grill. let me know if you need them.
  4. All mine are 1/2 ton. The Red Cross is a 1 ton. then-one with the red wheels is a 3/4 ton ot larger. Ask any questions about these Humpbacks. I’ll do my best to answer. Dave
  5. I may have the splash guards. I’ll take a look this weekend. Show pictures of your project please. We all love pictures. thanks Dave
  6. We had 14 Humpbacks not too long ago. Down to one shell. A few went to new homes.
  7. The pictures with the cracked windshield is mine . Just bought to flip or part out. It’s pretty much original.. Even has the crank cover and mascot.
  8. Had another customer with a 35 Dodge pickup. Went over with him and we went through the possibilities. He said it started when he hit a curb with his pass rear tire. Told him to jack it up and put an object on the ground and spin the wheel. It turned out to be a bent axle.
  9. That is great news. Darn good price for a shaft. You did not get the shaft on that one!! LOL
  10. I think the 3-ton and larger trucks stayed with the regular doors. I'll do some checking.
  11. Hi From the bracket bolted to the engine to the carb. Yes on the combo. Is that one or two parts? Thanks Dave
  12. Hi Allen Can you take a picture of the left rear light-plate bracket? Also the carb linkage. Have a customer restoring a 37 Plymouth truck. Thanks again Dave
  13. I have it figured out. Details later. MAN!! I love it when a puzzle comes together.
  14. The Fords back in the 70s were losing a fan blade. It was a faulty Revit that was breaking-coming lose. Mechanics were getting injured from reaching over the front of the engine to rev the engine. Ford came out with a gauge to check the rivets. I never reach over to rev the engine anymore on a belt-driven fan blade.
  15. Rotate tires from back to front-front to back if it still vibrates after removing the drive shaft. Some of the vibrations over the years. bad fan blade engine transmission motor -trans mounts bent frame Clutch Flex plate torque converter driveshaft bent rear axle tires wheels front end parts worn master cylinder e brake brakes and a few more
  16. I have been a wrench most of my life. Owend full-service gas-repair gas stations in Detroit. We were better than most Mechanics working in dealers. That's because we worked on anything that you put fuel in. Go Karts to Semi trucks to heavy machinery. We even had dealers bring cars to us. We always had a great crew. Worked on cars starting with my dad at 8 years old in 1960. These are the things that are a challenge to diag. Vibration Overheating intermittent electrical shorts Drivability- this is the hardest one
  17. Where are you feeling the vibration? Steering wheel? Shifter? Seat? Floor?
