Re: My 50 roadster pickup build

wow nice work mark, these cabs really need AC and 41 degrees in the "humidity belt" is a real promise.

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build

AC in a roadster??
You must have some Hot summers then?
We use the AC mostly to get the fog off the windscreens in wintertime.....

Only joking Jim

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build

Kees, we have "humid" summers here in southern Missouri, so AC is much needed. I also enjoy the top off with the AC on, or heat on in the fall...Jim

+1

I grew up in western Nebraska (almost Wyoming), 4000' elevation and arid...Northeast KS is like living in a sauna in the summer, and not near as bad as you guys further South!

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build

Well, we all have to move where it’s warm and dry then

I know what you mean Jim, AC is a great thing to have!

Re: My 50 roadster pickup build

Hey forum members, Black sheep (mark) and his 58 pickup, and myself Oldman3 (jim) and his 50 pickup, are in the running for Truck of the Month. So I'm asking as a group for all of you to Vote for Mark or myself, one of us should win this. Mark is Truck #2 and I'm truck #9, thanks...Jim
