Hi everyoe
In August 2010 I went looking for a self-reward to celecbrate 3 and 5 years cancer free. I found a great '51 3100 Pickup after looking at several thousand trucks on Ebay. We made a deal and I trailered it up to Burlington, ON, Canada from South Calorina.
I wanted a truck that had most of the heavy major mechanical done but, still needed enough body and trim work be to interesting.
This one realy suits my needs. My wife was adamant and very insistant that I get a hobby to get me out of the office and distract me from my work.
My '51 3100 is a 20 footer and I would like to bring it up to a quassy trailer queen but, only for fun and only to show at local non-competition cruise nights.
It needs some interior work such as upholsteryy and other mehanical work such as changing the differential ratio to let me run at 45 mph. and a few other tweeks.
I would like to take a leisurley approach to the restoration although my basic nature wants me to finish the whole thing before summer!!!! But, that is why I got it - to teat me patience and appreciation of the process.
I would like to thank all the members who have contributed to all the forums and have given me such insight into my new obsession.
Thanks to all.
Peter
