Popular Post Willie dog Posted December 15, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2017 Got all the wiring harness installed, everything works except the front lights. (no front sheet metal yet) Poured a little gas down the carb, turned the key on and pushed the starter button, she fired up after about 4 revolutions. I didn't want to run for long with no radiator in yet. 5 seconds was long enough to know it will run. THE OLD TRUCK GODS ARE PLEASED! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to get off 81 and deliver to Woodstock(forget exit #). Went down the hill crossed the tracks turned right at the sheetz and went 11 south for just a little. On the right hand side we had a small building we leased off a guy. We had holsum bread trucks there I'd bring a trailer down and they'd pick there loads to deliver locally. Good progress on the truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobert62 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Our building had 4 dock doors on each side. 2 for our trailers and 2 for the route trucks. I think the guy that owned the property had a old firetruck of some kind fixed up for parades. It's been about 7 years since I ran down there.
