Re: What are you up to?
Putting on new king pins(what a Fun job) & wheel bearings on 64 ND. New filter,gasket & fluid in 68 G-20 PG. Also stared on body work on 65 from CA . Troy made these louvers. He still got the mold for them. As I remember he said they would fit Chevy & Ford vans[img][/img] He might make more if enough people want them?? Let me know.

Re: What are you up to?
Friday and Sat. took a few old tractors to a antique tractor show , I still have one down there I'll get it Mon. They had a big concert here last weekend and there was a flash flood over 1000 cars were drowned in the parking lot, they say they are hauling out 200 a day now that the river has went down some most all of them are totaled.
I had 3 there and the pedal fordson
At the B93 Bash in 20 minutes the water was up to the windows in the parking lot
not a junkyard, just some of the junked cars in the flooded parking lot

I'm interested..
In the picture they seem to stick out from the glass a little on the outsides..??
These are something I've been wanting, just didn't know where to get them.

Re: What are you up to?
Now that is the problem,,,,,,I have only tipped it up so far,,,,,but once I pull it over, then it becomes another problem,,,,,,it will block my driveway,,,,,,especially if I cant lift it or move it,,,,,,,I started on it 2 years ago when it was a 70 foot pine tree,,,,,,and now its almost gone,,,,,,,I need that spot for a parking place,,,,,I have dug up and gotten rid of 30,000 lbs of dirt around it so far,,,,,,,but I am winning the battle,,,,,,,,,

Re: What are you up to?
Thats a Big stump Don . As for Dodge louvers ,Troy wanted to make a mold for them,but hasn't had time so far. Scott in the pic there on pop out windows,with them open. I think Troys going to make some more of the Chevy ones. Well let you know when he does.

Re: What are you up to?
Went to the tax office yesterday to inquire about using the 1966 plates that I found inside the side door of the van. They said I would have to fill out this paperwork (4 pages) and send it to the main registration office in Tallahassee, Fl. with $260 to cover all the processing and taxes and reintroducing of the plates back into the system! WOW. And if the plates were not up to the states used plate standards it would be denied and I would be refunded the amount minus shipping costs and processing. The plate is in great shape, I just thought this is a bit out of hand for just trying to reg. some old plates.
Well, for $260 and a "Maybe" I don't think so... I got these instead for $47...

Yeah, If I had a V8, I would have gone much larger but didn't want to stress the 250 to much....
