We just picked up a nice all stock 52 3100 this past weekend. I have enjoyed the articles and reference material on this site and just wanted to say hello and thanks!
I am impressed with the knowledge base you have here and look forward to hopefully meeting up with a few of you next spring/summer at some of the local shows around the Fraser Valley.
We have had a blast working on this old girl, and woke it up from a 2 year slumber today. It went through a complete frame off restoration about 22 years ago, and has only had about 800 miles on it since. It was purchased from Wisconsin 3 years ago and stored in a garage here in BC since. An opportunity arose to purchase it and glad that we were able to pick this gem up.
After going over it and correcting a fuel line issue it purred back to life as though it was brand new. There were a few relieved sighs and very happy faces, along with a couple of high fives!
I look forward to learning more about these amazing trucks and hope to be able to contribute a bit of our experiences eventually as well.

I host a pic a nic every spring at my place in Rosedale, you should come out and meet some of the guys. Check out the B.C.

Sounds like you have a good one. Good luck with it.

Be sure to take 3B up on the picnic deal. He has lots of trucks to drool over! | | | | | Joined: Oct 2014 Posts: 56 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Oct 2014 Posts: 56 | Thanks all. I may just have to take you up on that. Always love to see ones obsessio... i mean ... no I was right, Obsessions.  The more I "work" on these cars, the more I realize how much went in to creating these masterpieces that are so beautifully simplistic in comparison to todays rolling computers. I have the pleasure of working on an old carry-all and a few Nash's as well. Bit of a family affair. Definatley helps relive stress after a crazy day/week/ect... Cant wait until Spring! | | |
