Re: 1932 The Deuce, Dually, Dump Truck
Not sure if Gar Wood manufactured boats but he did race them using Ford FH V8's.
Chris,
You may want to use an engine stand that supports both the front and back of your engine. Not sure if the...

Re: 46 Ford 1.5 ton
Mine leaked about half a pint after I lowered the bed. Had some air bubbles also. I’m wondering if I overfilled the cylinder.

Re: GB Sisson
He has been MIA over on FTE also. His profile says he was active here today and June 8 over on FTE. Hopefully just not much going on around his place and he is doing ok.

Re: 46 Ford 1.5 ton
Thanks guys! I think the 8.25x20's in the rear and the 7.50x20's front give the truck a nice stance.
Mark, are the dump bodies you have made by Gar Wood and do you have the hydraulic cylinders?...
