  1. Just goes to show neither one of those idiots can make decisions
  2. Thanks for that. They were both very interesting….. bob
  3. Still not sure about Coca-Cola colors all I see is Howard Johnsons
  4. Those colors really look good on that truck makes me think of a tasty dessert at the soda fountain . We don’t have too many of those anymore. It’s no wonder you’re hired hand always looks happy around it… bob
  5. That’s interesting. I thought all the 400 series were gas jobs…. Bob
  6. You bet….. good luck bud just retired 3 weeks ago pretty much on here all day now … bob
  7. I’m thinking it’s probably that shifter with the chrome round dome with a three speed switch and yes, it does look like a Scandia. I didn’t think they were using them in those years either, but I have seen them and R models.
  8. Hell, I was just flipping around Google search I can’t find anything that even looks close
  9. I think that’s pretty much a universal switch and watts has a lot of them worth a try
  10. Excellent thanks for that Again, your truck looks amazing
  11. Oh, by the way, since we’re on the subject I’ve also had two beetles and one bus. Yes, I have had a lot of cars in my day.
  12. Ha ha yes it would be a lot more than that now I also had a 57 back at 1973 but it was a four-door sedan. I sold it and bought a 62 Impala.
  13. Tom, I think we’ve all done stuff like that before one to one match is pretty hard to come up with
  14. OK, that’s funny Dave. I did not even notice the hole in the fender. That’s just what it looks like.
  15. Excellent 40 years ago they were a lot cheaper I got my 55 for 100 bucks back in 75 but it wasn’t much more than a rolling shell had to put a lotta time and parts on it
  16. it should look something like this
  17. Looks excellent Tom and yes that’s what they used to tell us in the 70s was to hook it to the battery. I don’t know what’s up with that but I think it was cut cut out all the engine noise frankly I never liked the idea anyway especially on a company truck. But it’s probably a good idea.
  18. Yes, mine are all junk. Two of them are shredding rubber and flat. I’m going to have to do something soon. I’ve got to at least takeoff the two shredded and swap some things around for now. I am also on a budget now I am retired and trying to cut a few corners around here, I was going to go for the double coins 175 a piece I can’t even find those now Hobby trucks nobody really wants to go full on with prices
  19. Just checked it said I only got 8% of storage. Looks like I got a while before I max out.bob
  20. I just bought one of those single air horns from watts don’t know if you need one it came with all the accessories to install it I it wasn’t that expensive either
  21. Thanks for that have a ball bud….and yes I’m hoping to drive mine out of my yard atleast once before I croak ….. great progress… bob
  22. Hell I’ve never even checked my storage
