I have a cover or two lying about but I'm not sure if it's 216 or 235. I usually run my 216 cover on a 235 so it looks like a 216 and paint it the gray color,...

I am selling a hood i got with my 1949 3600 it has 1 medium sized dent on the nose section of the hood but still solid compared to others! I want $100.00 for...
I think that what you are really asking is about the caster setting. Those wedges adjust the caster setting. You want about 1 degree of caster . The easiest...
Agree. A single stage or AE paint allows minor repairs/buffing as you reassemble. I am in the process of getting mine back painted in pieces and it's...
Looks like a even split between Acrylic Enamel and base coat/clear coat. I guess that means it is a personal preference thing. Is their a source online that...
Try these guys they are very helpful, the red paint was about half price of the local paint store and I believe they ship free over $250. They are PPG Dealers....

For the better part of 2 years I have looked for the original paint that is on my 1951 1/2 ton. The catalogs I have collected steered me to Dupont / other...

Hey Truckers, Thought I'd let everyone know about my latest old toy; a 1953 F**d Customline 4dr sedan. I have been looking for a '52 sedan for a while without...
Glad to hear you found a close match to the color on your truck. Since you made mention to "original paint", I thought you should know that Chevrolet didn't...
Correct, no metallic on, but yes metallic in. Or did Chev discontinue the metallic brown (Champagne?) in 1950? Steering wheel and column solid color. Allen ...
... Sorry to disagree, but I can send an original 1951 Ditzler page that color charts "Woodland Green" - metallic. If I had not seen the book, I would have...
