Default Re: 1932 The Deuce, Dually, Dump Truck

Folks,
Thank all of you for the responses! Obviously there are still a lot of old Ford lovers out there. Bill OH, Thanks for the explanation of the reverse lock out thumb lever! Its cute as a button! My Allis tractors have a spring loaded feature to keep you from going into reverse too. Also the same shift "H" pattern. So that will be easy to remember!

By the way in my life these are some of the other projects! I hope you dont mind me sharing. I can go a little over the top some times!
1954 Allis-Chalmers WD45 that I did a (RCP) Refurb, Clean and Paint. The mounted 3 bottom plows are the same ones I used when I was a kid.


A friend on my WD45 at plow day:


Also just built a new shop since this time last year. Still much to do but made it through winter OK. This is one of the reasons I was looking for a new project too. Ok I like to show it off. So far I like it a lot! Should be a nice place to work on the 32 also!




The wife caught me actually trying to do some work on the shop:


Added a jib crane during the build:




another Allis WD:


My home away from home!


1/2 mile of PEX in the floor:


The wife and I:


some concrete:


Working on the inside now: still lots to do . This will be the home for the 32.
I have a spot picked out.


We have some winter too was happy to be dried in for first snow last fall:


interior walls (two zones of heat):


Stairs to the loft:


Some of my toys in the shop. Yes I will make room for the 32 for sure. I have a spot picked out already!
