Just wait.....retired man already has plans.....might just have a WT build thread

KOWBOY · 03-23-08, 08:02 AM

Looks like a nice little truck.

Better secure that battery though or it won't pass tech.

Texican · 03-23-08, 11:18 AM

You need to sell me that 55 before you do to much to it so you can build up the 40

Green Lantern · 03-24-08, 06:05 AM

Nice catch Carl!
Clutchee, don't pay no attention to Kowboy. That rope tied around that yellowtop is better than my rig's got.
Happy Trails! N

I have to replace gaskets and seal all over the engine. I made it home fine but I got more oil leaks then when I left. The front and rear main seal leaking/moisutre around them. oil pan gasket was already in bad shape. so my as well change them all at this time then later.

Sorry about the hijack

DHONDAGOD · 03-26-08, 03:36 AM

Congrats !!!! I know you both have been looking far and wide for one! Whats his plans for it? Mods? To-do list?

When you have a chance, I too would like to see a pic of the rear driveshaft and t-case adaptor on this. I should be mocking up the one for the daughter's '40 this week ( TINKER TOY buildup.... - Page 2 - Pirate4x4.Com Bulletin Board ) and would like to see what In in for...

Nice looking ride!
