Thanks HandyAndy. I bought a 49 that a gentleman pulled out of a farm field in California and started to restore. He installed a l31 5.7l vortec and 4L80e tranny . It has a Scott's front suspension and a 4-link rear end with bags. When he moved to Iowa, it sat in storage for 5 years and was never ran. I flushed the engine and cleaned the tank along with several other things and got it running. Still a lot of interior work to be done and of course the bed wood. The way he installed the rear shock mounts allows them to protrude higher than where the cross sills would of been so he has uni-strut going from bed side to bed side. I am unsure how the bed wood mounts and am curious if they could be mounted to the uni-strut. Looks like you have been around and tinkering with these trucks for awhile? You are welcome to make the drive to Kalona anytime so I can pick your brain:)

Take care!
Corey

...and then, after I moved all the files to the new computer, I had to remember the process to update the graphics! I've slept since the last map update, so I had to remember!

All updated now. Thanks for your patience! I'm ready for the arrival of summer and the departure of COVID, so perhaps some of us can get together.

Moderator,

Is this going to be an actual map?

oldieoldie,

If you click on the very 1st page of this thread and first post by "Shakey 61", you will see a link in the post that will allow you to download and open a "map" with the names and place marked for those that have asked to be included.

Hope this answers your question.

Have a good weekend!

If you guys meet up, let me know. I'd journey over to meet you!

-Kevin

Done!

-Kevin

Hi! Can I get an add? I'm located in the Springfield, MO area. Thanks!

Millenimech,

Welcome to the Midwest Bolters Association (MBA) gang!

Also a big "Welcome" to the Stovebolt community too!

Am sure Shakey61 will get you added to the MBA Map soon. In the mean time, maybe you could go and post to introduce yourself and your truck in the Welcome Centre ?

If you read a couple of the latest new posts in there, you can get a flavor for what you may want to tell us. What ever you do, please post some pics of your truck - lol! If you don't, be prepared to be pestered until you do - haha.

Once again, Welcome!

Dan

I'll call Shakey tomorrow and get him to add you.

Don

Hey Shakey61
Sorry, but I didn't realize youi had to volunteer to be added.
Purty puleeze?
Don't live in a city, but my address shows Hartford Kansas..........

Hartford Kansas?
I guess you may know some folks that work at Wolf Creek?

Don

Short time I worked there was during construction before the plant fired up in the early 80's.
My brother did 30 yrs there.......but retired a bit more than 10 years ago.
So folks I would be familiar with are long gone.

26+ years at the Callaway power plant. It is the sister plant of Wolf Creek and we share a lot of tooling and parts.

Don

Howdy y'all. Looks like I'm fixing to be the most southern of the midwestern association. I'm down in Gatewood, MO which is just about on the Arkansas line. Just picked up my 6400 on Saturday, haven't even gotten her turned over yet -- need to monkey with the starter but I think it's the "solenoid" switch that's the problem.

Welcome to the MBA Maranatha!

Am sure when Shakey61 gets a chance he can get you added to our map.

If you need to ask question on the 6400, best to pose them in the nearest to on-topic forum in The Shop Areas.

Glad joined us and look forward to the possibility of a meet up at some point in the future.

Dan

Updates done!

Thanks!

I always wanted to be on a map.

Too new to PM, but I am in O'Fallon MO.

Do you wish to be added to the map?

Absolutely!

Feel free to add me to the map at Sioux Falls SD (Far top left corner). Thanks!

I am in Rolla, MO, but my truck is in Halltown, MO (in Dad's shop during the build since I don't have a garage). I'm fine with being listed in either one

Welcome back JacobU66! When Kevin (Shakey61) gets a chance he will add you to the map.

Glad to hear from you again and looking forward to seeing you at the Roundup. Maybe you have some pictures and updates you can share on your project ‘66 you and your dad are working on.

I'll get you added to the map in Rolla!
