1950 Chev truck
Owned since new by my wife’s family
Has been sitting outside for 45 years so the condition went from running when parked to rough
I have had it in my possession since 2010
I am doing a total tear down and rebuild to a driver truck I am putting a 2000 GMC Jimmy frame and drive train.
I am about half done the build

Hey Kevinski
I might be wrong on the model of my truck I said it was a 3100. However it was made in Canada so that would make it a 1300. Would it not?

1300 it is .should have the 1300 emblem on the sides of the hood.

Just had rivets where the emblem would be. Can’t seem to locate 1300 emblems so I am going with 3100 emblems.

New pictures in original post. At the top of the page.

Sorry for the delay

What a beautiful bed. From the looks of the photos, did you place it in the frame of the bed first and then pull it out to stain it?

Yes that is exactly what I did

I have added a few more pictures of the truck.

Sorry that your question where to post your updates was never answered.

See you figured it out ... your DITY Gallery update is great new images. Thanks for that. I'll add the DITY to your signature line.
