I have a 1951 3100 5 window which I bought last year in Iowa. Not 100% sure of its history, but fairly certain it was always a Midwest truck and possibly a southern truck. Brought the truck with me when I moved back to NY. The goal is to restore it and keep it looking as original as possible. Thanks for all the help in advance! https://flickr.com/photos/133232360@N02/sets/72157652853892761 | | | | | Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall | | Moderator: Welcome Centre, Southern Bolters, Legion Hall Joined: Dec 2001 Posts: 14,522 | Welcome to the Stovebolt, konans1951.

Nice looking truck. I also like to keep my trucks close to original-appearance/equipment. Here is a Specification Manual for your 1951 Chevrolet Truck. If you check out the Serial Numbers, you find out if you have the original engine and where the engine and truck were made/assembled. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,215 Moderator | | Moderator Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 4,215 | Welcome Kienan, Nice to keep them looking as they were meant to look. If you need to know anything, just ask.

From the Vin my truck is from St. Louis, MO but it doesn't have the original engine in it. The paperwork I got when I bought it says it has a 261 from a 1955 1 1/2 ton grain truck. Thanks for the comments and support, I know I'll have plenty of questions, and I know I came to the right place! | | | | | Joined: Jul 2004 Posts: 2,987 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2004 Posts: 2,987 | Very nice truck!
