Yesterday I
made my first post in the Engine Shop. Now, I introduce some more and a little bit about me.
I'm living in the Netherlands in the province Friesland (Frisian). At this moment I'm restoring a Chevrolet C15A CMP from ww2. I hope to learn from you in this forum about the technical stuff of this car. I bought the truck 3 years ago from Stefan (LWD parts). It's not a complete restoration. Technical we rebuild the brakes (new brake cylinders and lines), fuel lines and partly the engine. The frame has a lot of patina so I put it in the Owatrol to protect it against rust. The body was in good condition except for a few spots. The roof was in bad shape so I found an other one and replaced it. I also collect a lot of spare parts and (rare) items for the truck.
Another truck I have is a Canadian Dodge 3/4t apt/wp from 1945. This truck is different from the US Dodge WC52. So is the rear end narrower and is it wadeproof. The engine is also different and is, I believe, a inch longer than the T114 in the US type. This car is road ready and it's a lot of driving with it.
