Don't press your luck!
 Sure, you know how to work on old trucks. Or maybe you're just starting in the hobby. Either way, safety is best learned through OPM (Other Peoples' Mistakes), not OJT!
Either as newly discovered wisdom, or a refresher, please read this article and live safely with your old truck!

Ooh, I see. Well, then I guess I should go ahead and start making out the checks.

JLucas~ My truck's a 1950 3100 that I managed to score for a whole $450.00. She definitely needs a bunch of love, but is well worth it. I hope to have her done and as my daily driver by May (that's also when drag racing season starts!). I'll try to add her into the gallery along with the "adventure" that it took to get her. Thanks for wanting to know about the old girl.

I prefer cash.  Are you a Drag Racing spectator, or do you participate? If you drive, or are a crew member, maybe you can submit a picture with your truck next to the dragster. Now that would be extra cool. John

As long as all goes well, I'll be bracket racing my truck in May. I'll definitely make sure to post a pic of her and I going down the track! I can't wait. Everything's already underway, and so far, it's going well. I'll keep you updated though.

Besides the Checks you would benefit by taking all this good advice and disregard about 80%

Well, this is good to know. Chevy Jenny's truck was my first attempt at working on someone's profile (adding her truck to the signature line). Glad to see it worked. The computer kept giving me thank "boink" sound.
But ... her truck and story are now in the Gallery!
