Several of you have been asking for photos of my BB project, so I posted an album of a few photos. I'll get it out in the spring and wash it up, then take some really nice photos. Thanks for ALL your help guys!!!! I couldn't have done it without you! :)

I just FINISHED restoring my Dad's '32 BB Truck:), and need to find some affordable antique insurance, but of the 2 companies that I contacted today, neither could give me a value on this restored 1 1/2 Ton truck. Any suggestions on where to arrive at a fair market value today? As for...

1932 Virginia License Plate- sandblasted, etch primed, painted and re-lettered before clear sealing. Mailing fees included in price. :)

I would like to find a repairable Oo-ga, but with no horn at all, I'd certainly consider a beeper.

Hey fellows. Any of you got an extra horn for sale or swap? I also need to know where to find about 7' of 3/32 copper tubing (for my fuel gauge). The steel tube is rusted badly, but I DID get the fittings sweated off. Any ideas about instructions for filling the red liquid into the gauge...

Thanks Terry! That REALLY helps! I fully understand what you've described. I've seen where suppliers show a tiny bottle of red liquid, but I didn't have a clue as to what was needed to make it functional. I'm wondering if instructions are given with the red liquid, regarding how to install...

Can any of you guys tell me how the gas gauge is supposed to function in my '32 BB truck? I've cleaned-up and re-soldered a tiny crack in the TANK unit, and removed a "whittled wooden bung" from what appears to be a venting tube. however the tiny steel line (running to the gauge) is rusted off...

Can any of you fellows tell me how the gas gauge operates in my '32 BB truck? I've cleaned up and re-soldered a tiny crack in the tank unit, and returned it to the tank. however the tiny steel line (running to the gauge) is rusted off and clogged shut. So I will need to replace it. But it...

Thanks again Jim. It's looking like my Dad must have put a '33 cab onto this '32 chassis. It appears that the unused regulator on the firewall may have been required on the '33 & 34's, but not necessary on the '32. Those schematics are VERY helpful! Thanks again.

Thanks Jim, that's the info I was needing. Any idea where I might get a copy of the entire wiring schematic? There was a single fuse holder and a 1.5 X 4" bakelite plate (with some type of small regulator and ceramic resistor) bolted to the inside firewall (above the steering column) that were...

I'm restoring my Dad's old 32 BB truck. I'm replacing the old wiring harness now (which was badly damaged, and cut up). The new harness is just about all in, and a partial schematic shows me which wires to hook to the + and - of the amp meter, but there is NOTHING marking which post is which...

I'm looking for a counterbalanced crankshaft for my B 4-banger, and a window pattern for my '32 BB truck. Can any of you help me? Thanks, Dave L.:)

I'm still trying to find a counterbalanced crank for this 4-banger, and also a window pattern for this '32 BB truck. Can you help me out? Thanks, Dave L.:)

I'm in the same boat right now. However I guess I can spend a week trying to repair the ones I have! Let me know if you find more than you need. Also, I need to find a counterweighted crank for my B engine. Let me know if you know where I can find one.

I am restoring my dad's '32 four cyl BB truck. It's engine (pre-Nov '32) has the small crank, which I would like to replace with a newer counter-balanced crank. My block has already been bored to 0.80 over, and has some other issues, so I bought a better block, but still need to find a crank...
