I am new to the Stovebolt Website and wanted to say Hi, and ask for some help in identifying a truck that I just bought.

The truck is a GM Canada built 1953 3100 1/2 Ton pickup.

The previous owner owned it for many years and did not know much about the truck prior to his ownership.

I looked the truck over and found info. on the Vehicle Identification tag, Engine and Transmission.

Below, I will list them out, and would appreciate any information that you may be able to share.

Model: 1314
Serial: 3131418024
Engine: C714816
Body Serial: 6821
Trim: 394
Paint: 332

Numbers I found on the Engine:

Stamped Serial Number: 040i7i0 F54X

Embossed numbers found:

B224

10 GM (by the fuel pump)

There is another number behind the starter, but I can't make it out.

Head numbers:

E 5 3

3701887

Transmission:

8686832 GM (On Shifter Cover)

On Case:

E203

I would appreciate any help that you can give me

Thanks
