Hello all, Ok, i just open my mail and i've got my Truck Owners manual for 1953 and got to page 2 which had 'conrols and instruments - 1/2 and 3/4 ton'. It has a 'Foot pedal park brake', then page 3 has 'Controls and Instruments 1 1/2 amd 2 ton' with Hand brake lever. I had come to beleive that my 2 ton GVM truck with 8 stud wheels was a 3/4 ton truck. however, i have a hand brake lever, does that mean i have 1 1/2 ton or 2 ton truck? It is a chev built by General motors Holdens in Australia. The badges on the side of the hood said Chevrolet, 1420. But the hood could have been off another truck. None of my other numbers match anything in the US/Canadian books. Now i'm confused. Any ideas?
