Daveingreenbay, Awesome story of your uncle Ervins AA truck experience! I have memories of my uncles old dump trucks chugging in low gear with a load of gravel! Hope I am going at 81! you have 10 years on me!
ACinSC, Yea I warn folks about the brakes too, just need to plan a little more when coming to a stop!:) Many farm tractors with no brakes set me up for this old truck!
Tom and All Allis Folks, Merry Christmas from Our family to yours!
Regards, Chris and Cheryl

Allis Guys, Thanks! The ragged ol' truck has been a learning experience for me! Glad you approve. I have attended several car shows in the area. Some folks that walk by ask when I am going to paint it? I tell them that it's done! It took 90 years to get this look, the next guy can change it! The original patina just seems to fit the old commercial truck. It would have been one of the biggest trucks on the road in 32. The truck's top speed is about 45 MPH. Mechanical brakes and a shift pattern the same as a WD series Allis makes me feel right at home in the cab.
Our son Adam was at the wheel for a spin in the 32 on a nice fall day.
Regards, Chris and Cheryl

Seeing your "0ld" new to you Ford truck reminds me of riding with my uncle Ervin in his 29AA. It had a platform hoist and he was hauling a heavy load of Pea Vines up a steep grade gravel road. As the truck began to slow down slower and slower, the engine was barely running. He told me to open the passenger door and put one foot on the running board. If the engine quit he said JUMP. He was worried that if the engine quit completely, it would roll backwards down the hill and possible end up in the ditch and turn over. But fortunately that didnt happen, and we made it to our destination. I was only 6 or 7 years old at the time. I am heading for 81 in march, but that memory is etched in my mind. I know you will take good care of that jewel, but as someone who has dabbled in the old car market for many years, the unrestored ones alwaus drew more attention than the highly restored ones. over the years, I have had both.

That's a great looking truck. Almost a shame to see such a pretty engine between the fenders. Fantastic job

Folks, It has been a long time since I updated you on the 1932 Commercial dump truck. Part of the reason was that my internet connection was so slow the picture would not load / download for resizing and or viewing. Well I did not stop taking pictures. Here are a few: The machine work was completed on the #1 engine (short block). A 4 cylinder "B" mill, All fresh components in a good leak free replacement Ford block.
I did the assembly work on the engine, pulled the temporary B engine, swapped all the goodies and set it back in place:
Rebuilt the clutch assembly with new bushings and cross pin:
Wooden floor boards were patched sandded and stained:
Fuel gauge system was cleaned, repaired, and installed. The speedo was removed gently cleaned and oiled and functions again:
Testing the two post truck lift with the 32 on board:
Cheryl and I have driven the 32 just over 1000 miles with the new engine in 2023. We have also hauled the ragged ol' truck to a national Early Ford V8 club event in Tennessee in June 2022, and a Grand National show in Detroit in June of 2023.
Regards, Chris and Cheryl

tadams, ACinSC, Folks, Yea the ragged ol' truck gets lots of looks! Weather has finally turned cold and snowy. The 32 gets to rest in the shop. But just prior to this cold spell I took it out for a late afternoon run. Here with just the parking lights on:
View from the back I added the non stock red tail lights on either side of the stock tail light/ license plate light. Also added the non stock turn signals but these are at leat 70 years old or more.
Several projects to do on it. I have another block that I would like to build, and replace the current temporary engine. Also looking at some glass repairs and the window channels in the cab. Regards, Chris
Regards, Chris

I'm working on procuring a 1964 Dodge one ton that a friends dad bought from the lumber company he worked for when they closed in the late 1970's. Body is in excellent shape, no rust and only a small dent on the passenger side running board. I think the engine is ok, will need tires and some of the wood bed replaced. Will be a nice truck to go to the Farmers Market with as I can haul a lot more empty fruit boxes home and won't have to unload it between Markets like I have to with my pickup. She has a bunch of neat old stuff but she and her sister and brother are not getting along well over how to dispose of the stuff. Families!

John, I doubt I will replace the glass. Too many other irons in the fire! I will add it to the list. Hope things are good! Regards, Chris

Good to see it back on the road. I remember you saying you hoped to have it running for the show in July or August, but there always seems to be something more to deal with. Better then never! Are you going to replace the drivers side window?

Allis folks, Thanks guys! The truck is running good except for bad rear engine oil leak. Several other small projects on it but would like to get moving on the first block. Plan is to get machining work done and new insert style bearings in place, basically a bare short block to be ready to accept all the stuff from this engine. Which would be the .100 over pistons, the valves guides, springs, keepers and adjustable tappets. Along with manifold, carb, fuel pump, distributor, water pump, head, timing cover, and other misc....
A couple more clips:
Our Christmas card to you folks!:
Regards, Chris
