Firsttimer with these old trucks but I think I am starting out with a good one. the truck: 1951 chevrolet 3100 5 window, 216.5, 3 speed. the truck is all original and no rust. Even has the original owners manual. The truck has 38063 miles on it. I flew up to new jersey on saturday to buy it and the carrier pick it up last night. I should have it in south florida by monday.
