You're like all the rest of us, you see the potential in things that most people wouldn't. When it's all done someday everybody will be like dang that's a good looking truck and you can say I know, look what it started out as though.. Good luck

Looking for a service manual for a 300 Maxidyne. Any info I can get on this engine would be great. Service, maintanence overhaul manual whatever, let me know, thanks. Tony

Dammitt, I could've used those H models.

Thanks for the help. Anybody ever been to a site called metalmeet.com? Got on there last night, great pics of restoration projects people have done. Didn't see any big trucks but some very talented metal workers out there. Makes me feel like I did everything wrong on mine so far though. Seems like a great site for anybody wanting to learn sheetmetal fabrication, similar to this one with different forums and chat rooms. Check it out..

I'm having some issues doing some bodywork on my H-63. I've done all the patch panels from the windshield down. I'm starting to do some body filler and need some pics especially of the sides of the truck from the bottom of the cab to just above the doors, mainly from just behind the doors to the back of the cab. I can't tell for sure if just behind the doors if the sheetmetal is supposed to begin to roll inward towards the front of the truck. It seems 6" to the rear of the cab from the rear door jam my sheetmetal flattens out until 24" to the rear from the jam and then begins to roll to the rear of the cab. It may not seem too important but I'm wanting to be as origianl as possible on the cab. From the middle of the sleeper up to the vents on the sleeper, the metal was stretched pretty good and had the "oil can" effect going on. I shrunk it back so that's gone but it definitely needs some straightening now. It would be nice to see another H model in person so if anybody feels the need to visit beautiful Bakersfield, Ca. you're welcome as long as you bring your H model with you. As many front to back, back to front or whatever H-mopdel pics would be appreciated. My body work is on hold until I get some because I don't want to start guessing at it. Shoot me an email @ aingram@bak.rr.com. Thanks alot, Tony

Bring a body guy with you Garth cuz I about threw in the towel on this sanding and bondo stuff. I'm not a body guy I can tell you that.
