Going to look at a 1957 Dodge 1 ton next week . Need to know what engines were available for that year. I all I know is that it is a V8 / 4speed . Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Might not be my place, but here goes. Look at the main page of both forums and you can tell what the priority is. KB still has much good info but someone is making money off the site and that tends to change the outlook pretty quick . You will "defend" something that puts money in you pocket...

When I am looking to buy an item, when It comes price , I always ask what their bottom price is. If that is acceptable to me I will go look and bring it home, if the pictures were accurate. This is the easiest for me and the seller get what they want. As you can probaly tell , I hate the...

Only asked again, in case there are others that used the same rim. Seems that most cars around here older than 20 yrs have been eaten by the salt/rust. Having to find "just" an early Mopar will be a big challange.

Just read the entire thread. Awesome build so far [cl I have one question for ya Preacher . Are you not worried about the front of the frame hitting the cross steering shaft when the the leaf spring flexs over big bumps ? Doesn't seem to be a lot of clearance in the pics.

Ok , I was wrong, I need 16 x 4.5 rims. What cars / vehicles came with theis rim ? 5 x 4.5 bolt pattern .

Anyone have the basic cab measurements ? I am looking for the length of the cab, front to back. I haven't had a chance to retrieve my cab yet and want to get the frame mostly completed before the cab arrives home. I have the basic front engine section completed and am ready to do the cab...

I am in Tillsonburg . I can get pics when I go out to bring my cab home. Should be before next week.

The gentleman that I bought the cab from also has a 49 Fargo that is in good shape. The only thing is it is a heavy truck as well , so it would be mainly for the sheet metal. Anyone interested from the Southwestern Ontario area let me know.

Here are couple pics of the cab before it was removed from the 2 ton chassis.

Good day gentlemen and ladies . Found the site via KB and thought I would check it out. Seems to be a relaxed and well informed bunch. I am building a 52 Binder rat at the moment. Using the stock IH cab, 64 Fargo front axle, 71 Ford Galaxie 9" rear end . Just picked up a 68 Caddi 472...
