Here is the lip that needs machined down. Anyone know of any machine shops I could call to see if they'd do it for me?

Spec Wheels if they are still around. They repair/restore aluminum wheels for folks, dealerships, auto body shops etc. Donald and Adrian, good people.

Anyone good with OLD trucks that knows what this is?

Ohhh, looks like this 1933 Ford. Door accents look the same.

What's throwing me off there is the inline 6...

Looks like what's left of a Ford Model A pickup. The flathead straight 6 was probably dropped in sometime around the 1940-50's.

Those style fenders were pretty common in the 1930's, but those wheels seem older.

Looks like it's just sitting in there. Maybe someone just tossed one in there before pulling that thing out into the field.

I think the one out at my place has a V8.

Could be.
I think it actually broke there. It is next to an abandoned lodge in the forest near Albany, WY. For being accessible to the public for that long, it is rather good shape.

One of my buddy wanted to buy a Porsche 911 GT3. I told him that Any 911 requires him to take bumper and rear light out to even change a simple AIR FILTER! He thought Porsche includes maintenance. Nope! Just their 1st checkup is.
I did a 911 turbo oil change before, and it was NOT fun at all.
If someone like free maintenance, buy Hyundai 3/36, BMW 3/36, Toyota 2/24.

He will be joining rennlistDOTcom fairly soon.

You don't have to remove the bumper and rear light to replace air filters on the 997. You do have to unplug one of the sensors and pull 8 T-25 screws to get the cover off and then 2 more T-20 screws (1 for each filter) to pull the filters off. Reverse the process after swapping filters. Then there's the pollen filter for the cabin air ...
