I just picked up a 1947 Loadmaster today two owner and all original very honest truck.
Will need a few things and just some driving but excited to learn as much as I can here. I am very green when it comes to old vehicles as a whole so definitely gonna have lots of questions.
The first project will be fix some little things and change out this rear gear to make her have a little more speed. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | Welcome to the Stovebolt.
