It's my truck. But I sure wish it fit in the garage. Time to look into those canopy structures once it comes time to pull out some windows and clean it up.
I picked up my carb rebuild kit today. Um, lots of little parts.
Don't be scared by those little parts.
A bit of some Kansas sand in there!

I'd tank all those parts in a carb cleaner solution. I bet that gunk is everywhere
Soaking as I type this!
Ugh, got the spring out, but the little ball won't budge!

magnet?
All of the directions I found said to remove it. Gave up and put it back together.
And..... it runs!!!
Looks good, have fun with this project!
Thanks!
I know some are saying to put a modern drivetrain in the thing...and not that I think you are considering it, BUT, if you were to consider doing something radical, then I'd suggest just putting that old body onto a whole modern frame...that way, EVERYTHING, even the ride, is substantially upgraded.
good job on the carb rebuild though :)
I'm a long way before I even think of things like that, but we'll see. It's fun making a little progress each day after work though!
It would be a crime to ditch the flathead motor!
Even with a rusted out exhaust, it sure sounds good!
Every girl's dream.... a tilting bed.
Nice truck.
Get those brakes working and take it for a spin.
just think how many tractors can fit on the flatbed at once!
