Partial Site Is Up! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Balls McGee · 01-12-2003, 05:10 PM

I just put it together quick so others can get an idea of what I got and what I'm doing.

May take a few minutes for some pages to load for dial-up users.

Nice Job on the site, and of course the truck looks great to. Just purshased my 64. Look forward to seeing your progress..From a fellow Canadian (Winnipeg). PS You gota get a heated Garage if you live anywhere like Winnipeg HA HA

Balls McGee · 01-12-2003, 08:01 PM

Hehe, I hear ya.... I have electric heat in mine and even with that, it's struggling to keep it warm cause them has been -10 or colder the past little while

I noticed you are from Winnipeg.... did you get that site I emailed ya?

our64 · 01-12-2003, 08:31 PM

Yes I got that website..Thanks a lot. I thought that company was out of business. It seems they just moved. I will be checking there tomorrow..Thanks again

Balls McGee · 01-12-2003, 10:10 PM

They have answered any emails I sent them within 24 hrs about pricing and what not. By the looks of it, they have just about enough stock to rebuid an entire truck! I found their pricing a little high.... I usually check eBay first.

our64 · 01-12-2003, 10:19 PM

Thanks I will email for prices first. How has ebay been for you, with shipping to Canada..have you found any other Canadian suppliers

Balls McGee · 01-13-2003, 05:55 AM

Very little. All of my purchases have been from across the border. My B&M shifter, valve covers, carb.... all from the US. I usually get them cheap enough so that even with shipping added on and with the conversion I still save a bit of $$. As far as all the ignition components that I bought, I got them through Canadian Hi-Performance in BC. Great prices there too and free shipping on anything under 30lbs!

our64 · 01-13-2003, 08:15 PM

Just to let you know I checked with Mid Canada. You were right, they are expensive and all the parts I wanted would be 2 weeks away. If you havn't checked out Scotts Super Trucks in Alberta , give them a try I ordered a catalog on line and they prices are real good, seems cheaper than from the Us with exchange etc. Here is the website http://www.scottssupertrucks.com/index.asp They also had everything in stock

Balls McGee · 01-14-2003, 03:59 PM

Cool, thanks...

Their prices are quite good!

I am glad I don't have to worry about the snow here in Houston, Tx.

our64 · 01-18-2003, 07:02 PM

Ok don't rub it in. I see you are running a 6 with power steering. Is it a 230 ? What did you get your power steering brackets from and was it a straight bolt on...Thanks

Balls McGee · 01-18-2003, 08:38 PM

Global Warming my arse....

Seems every year brings more of the white stuff.
Ahhh well, more time to get the truck ready for the spring!

Iron-Butt · 01-19-2003, 09:41 PM

The engine is a 250. The brackets came from a 60 model car with a six in it that had power steering. I'm using a Rez adapter plate for the box to bolt to the frame.

our64 · 01-20-2003, 08:38 PM

Thanks! I will check the junk yard. Did it mount on the drivers side?

Iron-Butt · 01-21-2003, 02:45 PM

Yes it mounted on the driver side.

JHickson6 · 02-19-2003, 09:51 PM

hey our64 it too bad i didn't know you were looking for a power steering box i sold the one off of my 250 with all the brackets and hoses to Ed at Mothertruckers. Timing is everything, i'm finding out the hard way.

our64 · 02-22-2003, 05:56 PM
