I check in to the Barn from time to time and seen this thread. A lot of people on the Barn has offered me advice and direction on my engine build. There was a lot of phone calls to Ron who freely gave me direction when I started on the engine and could not have done it without him. I purchased...

Several years ago I was able to snag an old original 1939 cab mounting blocks off Ebay after the PO found new reproduction. I used the original and traced out the pattern onto new cypress wood and with table saw and band saw cut/glued together. It fits like a glove to the frame. I think I still...

I'm looking for used overdrive unit for my 68 CJ5 so I can get it out more. Moved closer to town and people will run over you doing 45 in a 45 zone.

The year was 1974 and I was Junior in High School. Worked all summer stuffing fiberglass insulation in buildings to purchase 1946 Willys Jeep CJ2A. Ran the wheels off that jeep for 12+ years before selling it. First work vehicle was 1966 Ford Pickup truck, good ole 3 on the tree 6 cylinder.

I just purchased a used Asymmetrical lift and have not installed yet. From what I can tell the Asymmetrical Lift allows the vehicle to open/close the door better while getting in/out. The vehicle does not set as far forward and as long as you are not doing crew cab diesel trucks with 8-foot beds...

I recently posted 4 items on Facebook Market Place and within a week they sold. Yes, 2 seconds after posting I got a response on one of the items asking if they could send me a code. I just responded "NO" and that was the end of that Scammer. I asked reasonable prices and got so many responses I...

I had a problem with 8ba engine I installed in the 39 frame. Bolted it to the engine and put a rake handle inside the header pipe and bent to desired location needed. All good now.

Very well done!

Happy Birthday!! Thanks for all the help and freely passing along info I needed to complete my engine.

Can't decide if I like WWII or not......

Just came from a retail establishment where Security Guard was walking by a Jewerly Store and looked over on the counter and spotted a very well done counterfeit bill. The guy buying the jewelry had a receipt where he got the bills out of an ATM at a gas station. Let me add again it was very...

Thanks Merc Cruzer, that was a big help. I missed that sight while doing a google search. I think the colors I want are Tacoma Cream, and either Moselle Maroon or Monsoon Maroon. Do either of the Maroon colors have a tint of brown in them. I could not tell by the color chart on the site.

If all I have is the name Ford Cream #100 and Maroon #21 can most local auto paint stores take that and get correct color? I believe these two colors are for Ford Trucks 1939. I can turn a wrench and weld, but body work and paint are out of my league.

30Murray, That is a great site, thanks for sharing. I'm always looking for part in better condition than the one I have, or don't have.

Jack E/NJ That was very educational to google that. First one is to be a born liar.... I just want to find parts as fast as they do. "Early bird gets the parts" or is that worm. First 15 minutes I got 12 scammers...unreal. If they worked as hard at a regular job as being a crook they would be...

I decided to sell my 41 Ford Pickup cab and posted it on CL. Been several years since I posted anything there and only got one to two scammers then. Within 2 minutes of posting today I got 5 texts from scammers. My question is what software, or search engine do these people use to find auto...

Found this in my 1932 to 1940 Service Bulletins stuck in the back. May not be of any use to you, just thought I would put info out there.

I'm currently watching with a lot of amusement a part I ordered on the 18th with expected delivery date of 8/20. The order left Nashville, TN on the 18th and went to Denver, CO. From there it went to Birmingham, AL then down to Montgomery, AL it almost got to me. From Montgomery, AL it went back...
