The 28 is coming together.
The 28 is coming together.
Chatted with you several times over the past couple of years. I'm nearing the point I will drive it around the block for the first time. I'm still thinking of finding a manual crank dump or put the platform body back on. I have been very lucky with this truck it was in very good condition, no rust. Any thoughts on a dump body.

Re: The 28 is coming together.
WoW! That looks great! nice job. I am working on a 28 with spoke wheels just like yours, and I'am putting a platform with a hand crank on mine. I like the looks of the platform.
Great job you have done. I hope my truck will look that nice. Would like to see more pictures.

lowtide,
Please send me a high resolution photograph of your rack for lowering the cab onto the chassis. That looks like a great idea. I assume that one person can lift and lower the cab?

Re: The 28 is coming together.
I too am interested in seeing more of your "tower" there.
Looks like a very servicable item with minimum effort to construct.
Was wondering how it's supported laterally, so's it doesn't lay over sideways.
Gotta love them pics, eh folks?

Re: The 28 is coming together.
Nothing like a 28 ... Is yours the early left hand brake lever model ? Plus the wire wheels give a look that suits the 28 .. gotta Love It
Re: The 28 is coming together.
Harry you are right the hand brake is on the left, the brakes work perfect. See my follow up on lifting the cab.
