Is the Wrecker sold yet ,have not seen anything on it lately ?

Alan's Classic · 06-22-2014, 02:27 PM

I took it off the market so I can roughly put it back together then I will park it under the shed or sell it.

Bomp · 06-22-2014, 04:41 PM

Ain't nothin wrong with lettin it sit,,,, or hang from the rafters.

Great things take time.
In the meantime the wifey always finds time for us to go to her favorite restaurant.

Alan ,I hope things work out so you can finish it ,its a cool old truck.

Alan's Classic · 10-20-2014, 05:55 PM

Did a little something this weekend.

Worked in the front brake lines and prop valve.

Pulled the intake and sat a dual plane in place.

My motto is "one step at a time is progress". That's definitely true in this case.

I received CaptainFab booster brackets today.

Trying to remove the nut. After the initial failed attempt I used a little heat and PB blaster then hit it a few times with a cold chiesel. It didn't budge. I will let it soak over night. With all the oil that covers the entire unit I'm thinking soaking won't help since it's been soaking for years.

Did the socket from CaptainFab and a breaker bar not work?

I just went out and tried again after letting it soak over night and it broke loose. Maybe I can get it mounted this weekend. Trick-or treat tonight.
