  1. You tried the sources that kscarbel and ws721 posted above?
  2. Looks like a pretty nice truck, says it's a rare heavy spec unit. I'll bet it was pretty slow pulling a heavy load with that gas engine, but then again most trucks were slow in 1939. https://www.ebay.com/itm/154694354899?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
  3. What you're saying about the one-way jack sounds right...you'd have no way to pull the cab back past the "over center" point if you did take it 90 degrees.
  4. Watts had the chrome ones too but they were about $30 each.
  5. These were pretty common back in the day, but I don't have any info on them.
  6. I'm a member of BVH but I don't get to all the shows, I've seen those guys but don't know them personally. My air start system had some leaks, one thing I did was put a new ball valve on the tank outlet so when the truck is going to be sitting I can shut it off. Mowerman is right, you could look at the check valve...also soap the fittings or listen for leaks with a stethoscope hose.

    Floor pan

    The foot valve is bolted into the pan, if the pan is rusted out there's nothing to hold the valve. Rick, I don't know your particular truck but pans are usually welded in.
  8. I have the SWDL56 rears on my H67, it had the brake chambers up against the frame rails so I couldn't use maxis. I saw some trucks that had the spiders rotated one bolt hole to put the brake chamber below the frame rail, I don't know if this would work on yours but as long as your parking brake is in good shape you'll be fine with it.
  9. Looks like it's coming along nicely! Good to have a helper.
  10. I want to mount my air horn...the cab roof is curved so I will need a gasket that will fill a pretty decent gap. Has anybody found some foam rubber or something that will hold up long-term for mounting stuff to the roof?
  11. With the red frame and black tires, those polished budds really pop! I agree on the spokes, but nice budd wheels sure look good.
  12. MB600 emblem on ebay, says it's used but in excellent shape. He started the auction at $50 but no bids yet. https://www.ebay.com/itm/224627493515?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649
  13. Fantastic! When I painted my frame, I couldn't wedge myself up around the camelback trunnion, brake chambers, etc. to get all the little corners.
  14. You didn't lose the two tires, did you?
  15. That is one short wheelbase little truck. Handy for tight areas!
  16. Cool web page! In the photos toward the bottom is a Terex 33-45, it looks like it's got a 16 cylinder Detroit in it...big motor! And below that is a really weird looking Mack, the entire body must have been made by Orrville.
  17. You have the attachments saved as .jpg files? Are they under 1 mg (1000 kb) size? If they're too big most photo software will let you resize them smaller. If so you should be able to drag and drop into the "attachments" box. If you can't, you could try a different browser. I usually use Firefox but it doesn't work well with photo files so I switch to Chrome so I can attach photos.
  18. It's good that you still use it, so many are sitting back in the weeds rusting into the ground. Thank you!
  19. This one's got headers on it so I'll bet it's really fast.
  20. Sure! My pump is an Ausco DP-148, the kit number is 02275 from Lazzar's. They also have diagrams of the assembly on their website. The vee packing for the cylinders is VS10004X112. I got them locally but there are websites that sell them. You're right on the safety prop, it could save your life if something gave out.
  21. Great! Still have a long way to go, many hoses, wires, lights, seats, etc. to install. You also could have used the name Large SUV.
  22. Yes, GMC.
  23. That is a fine-looking truck, and the workmanship is flawless.
  24. Whoops! I changed the link, sorry about that!

    1927 AC

    In SW Ohio...looks to be a tractor, seems like there aren't many AC tractors out there. $47,000--big money. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/895229057750833/?ref=search&referral_code=marketplace_search&referral_story_type=post
