I have seen your website and have some of the photos stored on my computer. I can see the brackets I mentioned on the bed but I am still not sure how the front part of the bed secures to the frame. I stuck the bed on the frame with the oak boards in place today. Where that front bracket is...

Its been a while since I last posted. The forum's have been so helpful in figuring out things. I have the PU bed finished after many hours of TIG welding and fabricating. Trying to figure out the right way to mount it. My question today is on the brackets that mount to the cab end of the bed...

Its a closed cab 1928 PU It is a closed cab, sorry I did not post that. the photos posted are exactly what I have. Wondering if there are no wooden frames mounted to the springs, how the seats mount to the bottom and back. I saw what looked like metal clips on two of the wooden back...

I have a 28 PU I am putting back together. Sub frame was gone. I got a metal seat pan. Will get new springs also, but wondering about any wooden frame that goes under the springs? Or seat back. Information needed on seat construction. Was there a wooden frame that the springs sit on...

I have a model A rear end I swapped out. I drove on top of this rear end for years and it was still just fine. Reason I swapped it out was that it was missing most of the secondary brake parts and I had another rear end that had everything. Gears were replaced years ago on this rear end...

I have a good set of 29 TUDOR buckets. These have covers on them and the frames and springs seem to be in great shape. Also have the mounting posts. Email is joatmon2@bellsouth.net for photos.

I have two 1929 Tudor bucket seats with foor mounts. Good for restoring with seat covers. Wanting $150 for both seats. I also have a Model A rear end with original traverse spring for $200. I drove this rear end for years and it had no gearing issues, missing most of the E-brake parts but...

Fender need not be one with a wheel well. I can take care of that. Just need down stream end for patch work.

I can work wonders with sheet metal, but I have a right front fender that is missing so much metal on the down stream side where it bolts to the running boards its not funny. My finder has a wheel well, but I am looking for a replacement fender that can be fixed or a bad fender with the down...

Well, the front end I have been working on has been a real mess. Bent axle, bad king pins and bushings, damaged axle wishbone pad, missing grease fittings and worn out brake hardware. Now, the steering linkage. All the 1' balls are worn out badly. I see that they sell the balls on studs and...

I can see wear on the spindle bearing houseings which contain the king pin bearings. Obviously it has sat hard against the lower block for a while. I can see that the king pin is locked in place in the axle so yes, the weight is hung on the top of the spindle. Makes sense now. Bearings were...

In rebuilding a model A front end, I asked myself why the thrust bearing is on the top instead of the bottom? It sits under the top of the king pin where the brake actuator shaft fits. On most spindles, the thrust bearing is on the bottom where the axle will sit with its weight. What is the...

I put the axle under my 20 to press this morning. I pulled a string from the center to center of the king pin holes. I could see that there was a bend in the center but also one to the passengers side further out to the end just inside of the radius rod hole. With remarkably little pressure...
