We all say thanks, but we all use these forums differently. It's nice seeing old iron back on the road, much better that seeing it buried underneath it!  Nice job  | | | | | Joined: Feb 2008 Posts: 130 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Feb 2008 Posts: 130 | Well I will try and get the camera together for some more pics. Most of the time I was on the driveline section. Also the interiors--electrical I am on now and am enjoying that alot(less wirebrushing there). I am still doing my lights and whatnot. I am calling this phase one like I saw a guy do somewhere on the internet on a model T I think. I don't know if I will ever get to phase 2(super paint job and interior, exterior) I am really glad to get to this point.--Plus, I still have that parts truck lurking out in deep storage waiting for a phase 1. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 4,983 Master Gabster | | Master Gabster Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 4,983 | Davy, I know you realize, it's not the finish it's the journey. Many on this forum when they finish they begin to look for another project. I look like it as a hobby.

Wish you all the best and many more happy miles. (oh yeah, having a '36 I'm pretty biased to these models!) Well done.........Doc. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2008 Posts: 130 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Feb 2008 Posts: 130 | I have been having a good time driving up and down my dirt road and getting several bugs out of the truck. I had trouble with overheating and put a new thermostat in--may drill a hole later. Also some of the brakes were locked up and I just needed a heavier return spring. I had forgotten to bolt the back of the cab down and also forgot a few cotter pins in the brake cables. So I am gradually getting it back to full status. I have to go to work for a couple months straight now and must leave the truck till then. I am getting excellent support on this forum! | | | | | Joined: Oct 2007 Posts: 397 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Oct 2007 Posts: 397 | Congratulations!! Nice truck!!
