While I was typing the previous message the truck was idling, getting the exhaust pipes hot again, burning off all the excess penetrent. It worked. With only half a dozen or so blows from a small sle

And that's exactly what "they" want you to do. Buy an even older truck, restore it and 'stick it to the man'. Old enough that there are no computers, sensors and idiot lights. I had a '54 Chevy pick

I doubt I actually would buy a new truck. The only vehicle I ever bought new was an '87 Honda Civic Si - a great little car that served us well for 22 years. Yep, a 50s Chevy would be sweet! mjb. ___

Man...that was me until about 2002. I gave up on: 1) Finding the truck ('55 Fords aren't thick on the ground) 2) Paying for the truck ($25,000 is too much to spend on someone else's half-finished and

No experience with vintage Fords but my Chevies (I had a '54 1/2 ton pick up & '41 1.5 ton ex-fire engine) were easy to work on and parts were rarely a problem. Back then there was an independent aut

Yeah, that shop here closed a while back. You want a '65 Spitfire oil filter? With adapter or without, and we're sorry but it'll have to come from the warehouse--can you come back about 2:00 today? A

We moved into our current house back in 1986, I think it was. About 6 blocks away was a parts store. The store manager owned a TR6. It was so nice to have counter guys that knew that a Triumph was ma

In the last decade or so, parts for older american cars have gotten a lot harder to get. It's not just that the local autoparts stores are worse, there's also a supply problem. There used to be a fai

Good point. And not just American cars. As they get older, there is less volume for parts, so the manufacturers start making "one-size-fits-all" parts. Which of course they don't. Had to redo the fro

They make a kit so you can mount a 1946 to 1954 Chevy pickup on a Chevy S10 LB. Get a 2000 S10 and put on the old body. Now that is the ticket. I doubt I actually would buy a new truck. The only vehi
