My 32 Truck
Some of you would have seen this on the Hamb already. Picked it up this week about 2 hours north of where I live. A sweet old original truck. In pretty good shape. I'm thrilled to have it.

Re: My 32 Truck
I have to put juice brakes in it. I just doesn't stop worth a darn. Its already got a new muffler. Carb kit, new rad hoses, and motor mounts this weekend. Other than that drive it as is for awhile. Its just too cool to change right now.

Re: My 32 Truck
I like it. Put the juice brakes on it like you said and drive it. I'm planning on doing the same with my dad's truck.

Re: My 32 Truck
I will admit I haven't tried adjusting the existing brakes yet. Guess I could try that first.

Re: My 32 Truck
Kevin,
Just a random thought. You might want to find a fuel pump rebuild kit designed for this new gas and put it on the shelf (or maybe a complete Pump). It is something you will probably need. Be sure to check out Renner's Corner (734) 428-8424 for parts. They are small and don't advertise but have a few unique '32 parts and services (maybe the fuel pump rebuild kits). I notice that ken ct, 1-203-260-5945 cell email [email protected], also rebuilds pumps. Either of these sources might have the correct rebuild kits.

Re: My 32 Truck
Thanks for the info Charlie. All it has right now is a 6 volt electric fuel pump, which works good but looks a little out of place.

Re: My 32 Truck
Nice find Kevin. Don't change it too much. Neat as it is. I agree on just adjusting the brakes according to the service manuals.

Re: My 32 Truck
I have a question pertaining to the color of this PU, Were they painted from the factory with all one color or were the fenders black like on the model A's?
