Have you checked out Craigslist Vancouver? Pretty sure I have seen some old trannies for sale there quite recently... search by 1955, 1956, 1957 etc and you should find the ads I'm talking about... good luck! | | | | | Joined: Nov 2009 Posts: 84 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2009 Posts: 84 | I've met some of you, I'm here!

Happy New year !,, | | | | | Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 41 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 41 | Hey guys, checking in a little late. I haven't been on here too much these days. I haven't seen or talked to any of you since the Ladner show in 2010! Got a bigger workshop and another truck. I picked up a 1964 3/4 ton long box for $500 bucks. I just bought it for the running gear to stuff into my 34 but I like the body so much I think I will try and keep it. Not much progress on the 34, replacing the wood skeleton is hard. Lots of trial and error, but mostly error. Keep me posted and I will try and make it out to something. Would be more fun if I didn't have to drive my wife's toyota though. One day boys, one day.....

It's a 59 short box, fleetside, big rear window that's going to stay stock. It will be cardinal red and bombay ivory. Can't wait!
