Still alive and kicking. Still have the 69 D100 and 49 B1b-108. Restarting on both of them, again.
Enroute or on hand for 69: Scarebird brakes for front, HEI conversion, newer bench seat, rot repair sheetmetal, Bronco poly tank, 4bbl conversion, power brake conversion, upgraded heat/ac, upgraded wiper motor/intermittent controller. Will be on 31-10.50-15 or 7.00-15 tires.
Hope to have it running, towing the 49 truck, by Halloween cruise night this year. As much as I loathe 2wd, my wife loves the Swepty. Had it ready to be gone, “somebody” insisted on keeping it. Probably a good thing, since if a side deal comes through, it will have to tow my real deal modified in 1963 Chebby drag car. 1956 210 2dr post, blew its last engine and got garaged in 1972/3...
BOO!!! Long absence...

If I didn't build it, it ain't mine.

Sounds like you have a lot of nice upgrades to get done. Good luck

Will take all the luck I can get. Truck last ran in 2013, plates expired in 2011 or 2012. Been sitting on a tarp in front of the garage since then. Truck won’t fit in a 1920s garage.
