    Hypothetical Trade

    neohic replied to neohic's topic in The Pub

    Yes and no. I physically have space, but in doing so I know that I’d drive my current truck even less than I already don’t. My heart says yes, but my head says no.

    Hypothetical Trade

    neohic replied to neohic's topic in The Pub

    I think what’s keeping me on the hook with this potential deal is my stash of SCCA parts and getting that project out of my system. This truck has the right patina that it could pull off the “rode hard and put away wet” look. Maybe I’ll try and get out that way next weekend and give it a good once over.

    I’ve got a TIG welder I don’t need. It’s a Lincoln Square Wave 200 and it’s a good little machine. A friend of mine is interested in it, but not at the price I’d like for it. He proposed a trade for his Comanche. Not sure the year, but it’s a pretty solid truck that needs floors, there’s some rust on each door, but overall it’s a good truck. It’s an Sportruck, 4x4, manual, with an 4.0 that doesn’t run. It’ll turn over, but the story is that one day it quit running and there it sat for the past 6(?) years. Thing is, I need another vehicle less than I need an extra welder. Thoughts?

    Again, very excited to see an update! I’ve been following this thread since the first post. Welcome back!

    Ha! This morning was my biannual reminder to wash up the clock that lives over the stove.

    I’ve been hoping for an update like that! Looking forward to updates again.

    Ick… why do I never drive this thing when it’s nice outside?

    Oof… looks like a deal to me. Love the saw tooth stripes of that generation Pioneers!

    Welcome! Where in Colorado are you located? There’s a few of us sprinkled around the state.

    A 30” is about as big as you can go under a short bed. I removed the riveted in panel behind the bumper to get mine to fit.

    Just got the confirmation from the insurance company that I’m good to go!

    Thanks! The plan was to do a green door in the spring, but the existing red has grown on me. I’ll probably get enough to do the front door on the house along with the top half of the shed. Hasn’t thought of orange though…

    Spicer 706112X for a Dana 44. This part number is for 70’s vintage 3/4 ton trucks and they’re about 5/32” thick. Not sure I’d pull one from a used rig because of their age, but they’re cheap and easy to find.

    Do you know what caliper is designed to work with that bracket and rotor?

    There… … I fixed it. It’ll get painted in the spring.

    Ugh… Not exactly the perfect time of year for this type of project, but we’ve got a homeowners insurance requirement to either move the little shed 10’ away from the house or reside it in fire resistant materials. I chose the siding route. The bottom will get the same skirting as the house and the cement board will get painted in the spring. I’ve got until early March to get things “insurance done” and I’m hoping for another weekend with workable weather.

    Doing truck stuff today. Got back to the parking lot to find three guys looking around the truck.

    Either drill a hole on the other side and send the roll pin all the way through, or sharpen a trim nail, hammer it in there, and try to extract the roll pin.

    Two, actually. I little while back I contacted Strokermjcomanche about his 3D printed repops from years back. He told me that he thought he still had some around, but then he posted about loosing his mom and job. Haven’t brought it up since. I’m in no real hurry, but I also don’t really notice the lack of frames since reinstalling the original seats… suppose I might if I drove the truck more.
