2019年3月22日 · I have always wanted to build a 28-29 RPU, some of my favorites were owned by these men. Joe Cardoza, Dave Diaz, Don Varner, Dean Lowe, and Jim Stevens, all California trucks. Last December the planets lined up, and I was able to purchase a …

2011年11月10日 · That put the RPU project on hold for about 2 years...2005 and 2006. One thing that did come from the cleanup of my dad's place, was a renewed parts supply. Things that had not seen the light of day for decades...were sorted out were they could be used. One thing that came my way was a 4" Merc crank.

2013年10月2日 · The guy I bought this RPU has an extra A motor on a stand that he's had running and didn't smoke, overheat, etc. He wants $500 for that one- thinking that might be an easier route to go. Shaun1162 , Oct 9, 2013

2020年12月14日 · Yes, this particular 1934 Ford RPU was one of the last hot rods in Jimmy’s collection. It is all Ford powered, traditional old school build. He also had a 1933 Ford RPU, Chevy drive train that was sold about 16 years ago. Thanks for recognizing and commenting on this post.

Roadster Pick Ups are usually A's and later and it's just the descriptive name that are accepted by Hot Rod Lore, although a rearely seen T with stock style hood, grille and closer to full size box would certainly be a RPU in my book.

2015年11月10日 · I'm tossing around the idea of starting on a 1930/31 Ford RPU build. I've been offered a deal on a cherry cowl and doors as a start. After doing some homework on the HAMB I've found some info on the cosmetic differences in the grille shells but not much more info.

2019年2月15日 · Wondering what coil over spring rate you guys with RPU's are running? I'm at the point of having a roller except for rear shock springs. Got a set at swap meet but had 200# rate on springs. Definitely too stiff. '29 rpu,327/350,GM 10 bolt rear. Thanks,Bill
