Promised to let it play in the pasture with our 1939 John Deere. Very strong running, few miles on the drivetrain. No smoke, no leaks. Has the orginal babbit pounder Loadmaster 235, and a manual shift 2 speed axle, 5.68 high, 8.22 low. I've got a 53 Powerglide 235 in the shop to build up, but we'll have fun tinkering and doing some light farm work with her for now. More in the DITY gallery. http://s1048.photobucket.com/albums/s363/sgtdrydock/ Last edited by Drydock; 02/28/2012 3:35 AM. 1945 1.5-Ton Chevy Big Bolt Maynard In the Stovebolt Gallery More pix of the old truck

Tinkering is fun, I tinker too much sometimes. I like the Johnny corn poppers too. Leo 1953 Chevy Panel In the Stovebolt Gallery More pix on Photobucket
