phatdave Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Hi everybody . It's been a long time , but here I am. I am the Dave that started the " Sightings " thread. It's going strong ,I see....... Well, I got the bug again and found a truck on Craigslist. It's a very clean 1969 521. New brakes, zero dents in the bed, good glass, no floor rust. White in color, fat black rims with new tires. Runs well but backfires through the carb....guessing vacuum leak...800$ well worth that and more. I will post photos when I get my computer fixed ( this is from my phone) Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 I want to see the truck! There is something you dont know mike? haha I Thought He Knew Everything... :huh: No no, this is what we called this tranny...."Dave's mystery dogleg ". I finally found a reference to where it was used and a likely reason for why they rarely show up here. I know of three or four being mentioned. Quote Link to comment
Bleach Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 No no, this is what we called this tranny...."Dave's mystery dogleg ". I finally found a reference to where it was used and a likely reason for why they rarely show up here. I know of three or four being mentioned. Ya guys! Now let that be a lesson to you.

phatdave Posted January 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 He was the only person that knew what the tranny was AND what pouteen is. I'm still trying to get my computer working so I can show you guys my 521 . I also had a conversation today with an older gentleman that has an electric 78 truck . I will post it on the sightings thread with pictures when I'm able to . Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Poutine (noun) : poo' teen {also spelled pouteen} French Canadian derivative of the Old World French pautien : Immature, childish, unripe. Used in Quebec (Lower Canada) even after confederation by French Canadian men to taunt/describe the British women in Upper Canada. Today it is a slang term used to describe a dish of french fries, melted cheese curds and gravy that while delicious hot, has gone cold and clingy and is best left alone. Quote Link to comment

mklotz70 Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Great to see you Dave!! I've been wondering what happened to you!! You might check on the valve adjustment....tight intake valve will cause the backfiring. Welcome back!! :) Quote Link to comment
