we just purchased a HF English Wheel and wondered if anybody came across a way to get more anvils for them? Eastwood is out of stock. HF is out...
There is a guy on my Diamond T trucks facebook page that used 1-ton chevy front suspension (IFS) and he said it bolted right on with only a little...
what did you do for the ends Skipstitch? That stuff looks so similar to the hinge on my Diamond T hood, haha. Thanks so much for the link!
Me, like others, can't seem to find that c-channel - everything labeled c-channel is more u-channel :(
I happened upon this old thread in the effort to find any how-to on doing button-tuft for automotive interior.... lots of youtube on tufted...
I am so happy to come across this thread! I am going to attempt my own headliner in our 36 Diamond T - that would not have ever had a headliner!...
I am happy to report that I won an auction for a NOS headlight conversion kit for our 36 Diamond T buckets, so we will be able to use modern...
oh, I am cheap, but sometimes buying new is the only option. We really don't have swap meets around where I am (NW WA) that I know of. I *do*...
the opening is 6 7/8'' and the outside lip is 7 7/8'' (the buckets are 8'' on the outside) I will have to look to see if I have the chrome rings,...
haha - good luck finding 40's or 50's buckets that look like these gems: [ATTACH] I didn't mention - I was hoping to be able to use sealed beam...
would I still need the conversion kit for this to go into my buckets? The original reflectors are not in good shape unfortunately - the buckets...
I have a related question - we have the original headlight buckets for our '36 Diamond T that we want to make so we can use modern sealed beam...
I have the 'aqua boomerang' formica also that I put in my '67 Serro Scotty - looks quite a bit like this little trailer actually :) I love to see...
oh, the cabinets are lovely! What type wood did you use? It looks like the edges are rounded on the face frames? I likey!
Here is our '67 Serro Scotty (15' Gaucho). I have totally removed/redone the interior with all mahogany walls and oak cabinets, all built from...
I took a couple pics of the drip rail profile. These are off our '36 DT 221D This is above the door: [IMG] and this is the back/corners: [IMG]...
I have the drip rails removed from our '36 - trying to get them cleaned up before reassembly - I will try to take a pic of them to post so you can...
ya, probably not a DT bumper - maybe it had brackets clamped to the brace that held it to the truck/car it came from.....
That truck is a 40's truck, not sure what year specifically. But, also may or may not be an original bumper on that too........
looks like it could be a '36+ Diamond T bumper and I NEED one! :D Here are some pics we took at the ATHS show in Yakima a couple weeks ago....
We will be sending Tom the hinges to rebuild soon :) Karin
bkvail is me, and I am a she :) I hope I'm not in trouble! :) Karin
What a beautiful young lady! Everybody should learn to drive a stick! I have only ever owned manual cars except for our Suburban's (which you...
We are looking for new hinges for our '36 Diamond T truck. I know it's probably a long shot, but we are holding our breath and hoping! We have 5...
Where have you seen pics? We are going to the ATHS show in Yakima tomorrow :)
things like that are frustrating! At least you got it figured out what the problem is (fairly quickly it sounds?)
at least you can quickly test the thermostat to see if that's the issue. Hopefully it is! I had a car that would NOT heat up, no matter what....
I vetoed the fender marker lights on ours too. It came with them originally, but I think they are cheesy. I think they deter from the lovely...
is this an annual thing? Maybe our truck will be done enough for next year, Conway is only a half hour from our place.....
