    Hitched up and ready to roll at dawn tomorrow. First trip with this truck pulling this trailer. This year is a little different than last year. I only have a 27 roadster body bought so far, but a lot of good possibles. I'll be posting ads when I get back

    Well I haven't gotten the trailer full yet. Nice 40 Chev 2dr sedan project w/title, 40's International cab, 400 sbc and a 406 sbc. Still have room for some more. One possibility is a 49 Ford coe.

    I spent the day with a local car guy from Kalispell showing me around some yards in the area. So far this trip has been pretty good for finding stuff. I have the front half of 2 touring cars, they make nice roadster buckets, 2 Diamond T coe's, 40's International cab, 40 Chevy sedan, 400 sbc and 406 sbc. At this time I don't have room to bring it all home. I'm going to a local swap meet tomorrow and maybe I'll get lucky and sell some things. If not 1 roadster body and the International cab are staying here at my sons place

    Dig the rig! Looking for a pair of doors for a two door 1934 Buick Coupe. I would pay for searching and shipping. Thanks!

  13. That is a pretty full load of cabs and car! I guess you left the roadster buckets and some other stuff and will be making a second trip.

    454, I brought the T home in the truck bed along with the motors. The only things I left were the Dodge roadster and International cab and their at my sons in Kalispell. That's why going across a scale in Wi. I was at 19,500#. At this time I have no plan to go back out until next year, of course that could change.

    Ratfink, the chassis were left for the guy who helped me get the cabs off them. It was that or not be able to buy the trucks. They both had missing mechanical parts and most guys are only interested in the bodies to mount on newer frames
