I vote for the engine section with a link to it posted here.

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Engine section or maybe the Alternate Tinkering section??
And as Doug said, a link to it here.

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build

Back on 1/24 I showed a small update on my truck. I had taken the two pieces off that day, and they have been sitting in the shop. Today Mark trimed the black piece and tack welded it together and put in back on the truck. It fits good and lines up nicely. He will finish welding it together then I can start doing some more work on getting it ready...Jim

Here's a couple pics.

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

The repair looks great. After paint, no one would be any the wiser if you hadn't shared all of the pictures with us...ha ha

Marc,

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

They will be good repairs. Bolting in place and then welding to verify positioning is a great idea. Jim, those inner are a work of art.

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Thanks Marc, I would have preferred not to have to make the repairs:devil:...Jim

Thanks Doug, and thanks about the inner as well...Jim

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Well then you shouldn't have "aimed" for the deer!:lol:

(Sorry, I couldnt resist. Your repairs are WAY better than you'd have gotten at any garden variety autobody shop your insurance would have had you use.)

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

That's was funny Dan, Thanks...Jim

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Repair looks really good so far!
Expert level!!

Maybe a dumb question...in your last photo is an electronic device.
Is this a Cruise Control computer? If so, what brand and how is it hooked up inside cab to operate it?
I was looking for a CC but haven't found the right one for me...

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Thank you kees, yes that is the cruise control unit. I showed a complete install on this, further back in my thread. I'll check later and let you know page and post number...Jim

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Page 24 for the CC. I am trying to find where to buy that unit because it looks like Brandon Distributing is out of business.

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Nice work!

:uhmk:

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Wow, outstandingly clean work.

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Looks good Mark. Very clean!

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Lower, I was surprized that they were gone. I did a check for the Smartline AP500 unit, and it seems they are no longer making a universal kit. They have a 9000 unit but its for newer cars. There is another company that has a decent unit, I will check tomorrow and get back to you both...Jim

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Nice metal work Mark....you make that look way too easy.
You will back painted and assembled in no time Jim.

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build
 

Hey guys, here's a link to Haywire that has a unit very close to what I have, may want to check it out. I've got one of their old catalogs and it sells for around $225.00 Hope this helps..Jim http://www.haywireinc.com/index.cfm/...=cat/cat19.htm
