I am new to the field of large trucks. I'm glad to find a web forum dedicated to restoring and working with older vehicles. My wife thinks I'm crazy of course. Some of the projects I have dragged home has made her just shake her head. I read some of the other posts and see that I'm not alone. Good!
What brought me here was a web search for a 1951 6400. I have an opportunity to buy one and wanted to get some opinions before I spend any money. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,215 Moderator | | Moderator Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,215 | Hey Chandler, welcome to this site. Having your wife only shake her head isn't too bad, it could always be worse.
We have a forum dedicated to the bigger trucks, you should check it out. (Many of us including me have half ton trucks.) Just scroll down to "Big Bolts" and pose your questions there. Good luck!

Keep you eyes out in the TRucks For Sale fourm and you might keep check on the ebay/craiglist forum as Gmoniz post quite a few listing there..... and if the one you are looking at is in good shape buy two of them!!! You never have enough trucks and as Leo says...... it could always be much worse.... just don't ask me how I know  | | | | | Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 166 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2010 Posts: 166 | Well Chandler, seems you already have a thumbs up from your wife.
