Re: today's score
while cleaning out the cab ,took the bench seat out of course, thought i might find some things of interest.. not really anything cool,...just lots of junk but two things i didn't throw out
(1) a BIG knife under drivers side!, and (2) this pictured part. i think has something to do with tire jack, or mounting of it, ..or??? guys? |

Re: today's score
I think that is the piece that holds the spare tire to the bracket?

Re: today's score
That piece holds the crossbar of the rear mounted spare tire carrier, up to the frame. Which in turn holds the spare tire up to the bottom of the frame.

Re: today's score
I just read this, and I thought this was the coolest thing said in it:
"...i just want to get her running and road worthy , then go pick up pops from the old folks home and go for a ride...". That's great - these weren't even people you knew and you thought of that. That's really nice. Any old guy who hung onto an old truck he had driven , even after the years he was able to drive it...that'd be a gesture he'd appreciate. Obviously had sentimental value to him the whole time. I will subscribe to this...hopefully if you ever do that (shouldn't be too hard, since the truck's still in 1 piece) you can post up pics here. I took a car back and showed the guy who had owned it (40+ years, and all I had done was get it roadworthy and polished it up...not even restored yet. Cars are more than cars when you have them that long. WOuld just bring back memories I bet, for him! Last edited by SUBURBANlinoleum; 04-21-2010 at 11:30 PM. |
