I'm the odd one as I bought a M715 with a Pontiac 400 swapped into it and changed it out to put the stock 230 back in it. I love it and it runs great. Never has it left me stranded and I have put quite a few miles on it. The thing that I remember though is that these are fun cruise vehicles...
Looking good, and that is a nice looking meat wagon in the last pic. With snow just around the corner it should be time to get the top back on it. I just put the top back on mine last night, as I feel that the chance of nice enough weather to run topless are gone for the season here in Michigan.
Well now that SS is back up I can post up the pics of the finished M725. Everything is mainly done except for the wheels which I'm going to wait until I disassemble them for new tires sometime soon. Anyway, enjoy.
Yeh, it was great to start with a truck that was so complete and in running condition. The only major missing items were the rear steps and the passenger side litter rack. I have since found a correct set of steps but have not located anyone yet with a passenger side litter rack that they are...
Thanks guys.
Rob, yes I'm still at it, and my family of trucks has grown to 5. With how busy I am at work (I bought 2 more businesses recently) I just don't seem to find the time to post much anymore. By the time I get to read things in the evening, there is not much more usefull info I can...
This past march, I picked up a very nice clean un-restored, un-molested 1967 M725 from a fellow who bought it surplus over 20 years ago. Really nice older gentelman who finally realized that he would never have the time to do a restoration on it. So I got it for a great price. It had sat for a...
A feature I just added is the customer submitted photos at the bottom of the home page. Any of you guys who have bought marking sets from me, I would love to show off your great vehicles on the site so email me over pics at davidallenracing@oceana.net and I'll get them up for you.
No, the paint mask sets are a one time use product. They are made from a low tack vinyl material that to apply then paint over. Here is a summary of how it's done. http://www.deltateamdecals.com/paint-mask-how-to.html
Well I have finally got my new decal website up and running. http://www.deltateamdecals.com/ is the new site and will replace the old one. Plus it allowed me to add a few new items and have a straight click through to PayPal. Look through it and let me know what you guys think. If you are...
I'm on the far west coast of Michigan. I live in Silver Lake near the sand dunes and have motorsports shops in both Silver Lake and Fremont. I usually run my trucks in most of the parades and events around the area.
Yep, I can do all kinds of things including the MAX SPEED and under hood cautions.
Somedays I wonder how I get it all done with running the 2 dealerships, but luckily I have great staff at both places.
No offense taken, I do appreciate it because it helps show areas that could use improvements that I don't think of (like squaring the surrounds).
Yes it would be nice to advertise more as right now I do most of my work through word of mouth and on the forums. I do my markings as a little side...
Looks good Matt, sorry you had problems with the one paint mask. If you want I will cut you a new hood numbers set and get it in the mail. I keep a file of every marking set I make so that if anyone has a problem, or needs to remark something later on down the road, I have the exact replacement...
I'm an hour and a half north of him, but have a house full of kids as mine had all thier friends over for one last sleep over before school starts. I don't think it would be wise to leave the wife home alone with 6 kids under the age of 8. I have several tires if he needs to barrow one, but...
Good to here his is making his way OK. Tell him that an oil leak is what lets you know there is still oil in a deuce. It's when it doesn't leak, that should worry you. That means it's out of oil! :grd:
