Hello fellow Stovebolters! I new around here but not new to AD trucks. I finally got my 1951 1/2 ton truck after almost 15 years of searching. I picked it up from a co worker who was saving it for his 18 year old college bound son. But..his son didnt want it,he wanted a brand new F*** mustang. So, I got it for $1500 after being stored under a carport for 10 years! The carport really protected it from the hot, blazing Texas sun. It took me awhile to figure out what kind of engine I had since the previous owner didnt know either. I found out it has a 235 from the casting numbers on the block.The truck had an engine swap and a 12v conversion from the first owner. As far as the history of the truck,it spent most of its life hauling cattle in a ranch outside Brackettville,Texas.No major damage except for the floor boards are shot and so are cab corners. Next step is to figure out where to start!
