Re: 1936 Truck restoration
To be original, your running boards should be black. Pinstripe on 36 is on the belt mold on the hood, doors and cab. 35 had stripe 5/8" below belt mold. I like stripe location on 36 better. BEAUTIFUL TRUCK.

Re: 1936 Truck restoration
The color reminds me of the "ma bell" telephone trucks that ran around my neighbourhood 60 years ago.

Re: 1936 Truck restoration
That's about as nice as it gets for a pickup IMHO.

Re: 1936 Truck restoration
Excellent job on the restoration of this 36. I'm not sure my 36 could be brought back to this condition but the 37 I picked up could be. Enjoying your progress.

Re: 1936 Truck restoration
Thank you guys for the replys. I ordered what should be the last of my bolts, screws and hardware from Roy Nacewitz tonight. Still have to finish the interior and wire her up.
Ive made zero progress on exhaust yet so if anyone has any thoughts on that I'm open ears. Love to just buy a stock system. |

Re: 1936 Truck restoration
Its up to you whether to go to 12 volt but a 6 volt optima has a kick like a 12 volt ,so that leaves only your lights to deal with and you can sort that with the Drake /Macs quarts halogen kit ,If you go 12V you need to consider the chances of being on the side of the road with a broken bendex Ted

Re: 1936 Truck restoration
I just did a up grade on my 35 so these may be of help ,yours will be a mirror of this since its left hand drive ,The two rusty pipes are Ford issue , the front pipe enters the muffler at 12-0 and exits at 8-0Ted

Re: 1936 Truck restoration
Need some electrical help from some pros, here's where I am:
All new 1936 wiring harness 8ba motor and generator. It's been converted to Hydo brakes so I'm thinking about moving the battery to the passenger side floor board, under it. What additional electrical will I need to make this work? I understand my harness is short one wire to the generator as well? |
