Best looking Chevy as far as I'm concerned was the '55! Ron

For that matter what's a windshiled? Ron

Wonder if he'd be interested in modeling a very small "E" model? Ron

Ken, I'm pretty sure that works for V-Mac1 but only if it's an active code with the light constantly on. Ron

Is this going to replace the B-75? Ron

Beautiful truck, the prettiest cab forward fire truck ever made! Ron

The ring gear on the flywheel is a separate piece and is replaceable if still available. It's not too bad of a job once everything else is dissembled. The ring gear is a shrink fit onto the flywheel. Heat the ring gear gradually and evenly with a torch to expand it then drive it off the flywheel. Installing new one is the same deal after everything is cleaned. Turn flywheel upside down and lay ring gear on top of flywheel. Gradually and evenly heating the ring gear until it expands and just starts to drop onto the ledge on the flywheel. Gently drive the ring gear until it is completely seated on the ledge on the flywheel. That having been said, I'd just use it for now until you have a problem with it. Who knows it might never give you a problem. Just for curiosity sake you could look into the availability of a new ring gear, they at one time weren't that expensive. Ron

Great looking truck Carl! Good luck with it, being that most of the stuff is there that's half the battle! Ron

Happy Birthday Hope you have a great day! Ron

Congratulations Randy! Ron

Ken We had R.H. power window lifts in 4 of our "MH"'s. I see no reason why they couldn't be used on the drivers side as well. They were however not electric, but were air operated and made by Sprague Devices. They didn't work bad, a little different than the way electric ones work, a little harder to control. Only ever had one go bad. The cost for the one we replaced I thought was higher than elephant ass and that was about ten years ago. Don't know if it would even be still available!? The air switches for the R.H. window lift and R.H. door lock were mounted on the edge of the center console right behind the ashtray panel. Ron

It's an "A" model cab (has cowl vents in the sides). Lots of differences, "L"'s are much bigger, "L" models have a 2 piece windshield "A" models have single piece windshield. Ron

You better keep an eye on him Doug! Ron
