No problem, it will buff out...

Eddy Lucast (8/2/2022) Aaron (8/2/2022) I won't have anything new, its getting time to get the 49 Plymouth restored and pull the 72 Chev pickup out of mothballs and back on the road.
If you need a hubcap, this one appeared this spring when the dry Texas dirt in my yard covering it up blew away.Frank may have to do his magic on it. I might just have to have a go at that hub cap just to keep in practice

My first car was a 49 Plymouth 4dr deluxe complete with gasoline heater under the glove box After a successful evasion of the county sheriff at speeds in excess of 85 MPH on a graveled road the old flat 6 decided it had, had enough of my abusive driving. so my dad and I dropped a 383 and the entire drive train from a 68 Belvedere in it. Me and the county sheriff had a couple of rematches. I'd lure him onto the gravel and dirt roads each time and loose him.

My first car was a 1941 Mercury coupe. I was pretty solid, but it did smoke a bit. So I rebuilt a '50 Mercury engine for it. Put in a mild cam and slightly larger carb jets. It did run! I drove it from NY to Texas when I went back to where I was stationed in the AF. Sure wish I had it today, likely some of you could say the same. I sold it to a buddy and bought a '52 Ford. My son has it now. Tom

Wolfcreek_Steve (8/3/2022) My first car was a 49 4dr special deluxe, (I think they all were) brush painted two tone Rustoleum green. Lawdy, what a pig!
I inherited my Uncle Lee’s ’48 DeSoto Fluid Drive in ’55. It had a fluid coupling, clutch and a 3 speed transmission on the column. 0 to 60 in 5 minutes. I destroyed it on our dirt track behind the barn before I was old enough to get my license.

ScottM (8/3/2022) I will have to check out the Plymouth Special Deluxe, sounds like an interesting car, I've probably seen one, just didn't know what I was looking at.
Eddy, I suspect that prior to '59 if you had a need for a 4wd pickup it was a Marmon Herrington kit that one needed after you left the Ford dealer? Was the F100 of this era a joint venture with a firm like Marmon Herrington or was this solely a Ford product?Would have been a Marmon Herring or IIRC a Coleman in earlier years 1959 was the first year for a Ford 4WD from the factory. Ford used the Spicer transfer case.
