Howdy Y'all,
I'm a new guy on here, just recenlty acquired a 1947 2 ton Loadmaster big bolt truck. The truck has assumed a special meaning to me, an old man around my area had it setting in his field, it's been there a long time, he gave me the truck to either save or scrap, I chose to save it and when I told him his eyes lit up, I could see he truely approved of my choice and he now wants to take a ride in my newfound truck one last time once I get it fixed, So I have found a new drive in restoring my old iron, if only to see an old guy smile.

If it's old and rusted out.... Well it's probably mine.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile

I will post some pics as soon as I figure out how, I am in desperate need of affordable body parts at this time, I'm pretty short on money and a lot of sheet metal is rusted through on my old truck, it set over 25 years in a field under a pine.... The things i need most are front fenders, a good hood, and a nice grill, I am also looking for the pans that go above and below the grill as well as the front splash shield

Kevin: As Johnny Cash said, "one piece at a time". The stuff is out there. Soon you will have a network of friends that can help you along the way and Maybe, just maybe, you'll find some parts close by.
Be sure to post your needs/wants in the correct forum in the Swap Meet for the most viewing and responses. Lots of good info here on this site and all guys that are quite knowledgeable.

Good luck, keep us posted.
