I've got a '48 3800 now, it's my third advance design truck over the years, (prev. '51 3window, '50 deluxe, both 3100's). Aquired, fixed, drove both for many years, before letting them go to good homes.
My intention with this 3800 is to keep it and drive it often as a working member of my family. I've missed having a P.U. for a couple years.
I'm in the process of installing a dual master brake cyl. set-up for safety's sake, and i'm finding some distinct differences between 3100s and 3800s. Glad to see the new forum for 3800s! Thanx, John,(nice 1 ton b.t.w.). I've got a couple of questions, maybe someone could help me with. Is there a market for 17 in. split-rims? I could use some tires for the 16.5 rims i'm going to run. Also, if "swap" means swap, couldn't I post a trade offer instead of trying to figure a specfic price for items I have? Money is tight these days, and shipping is already expensive.
Thanx for any help, and I hope I can provide others with help too.I'm a lifelong auto upholsterer and trim guy in Racine.

Yes, you can post 'for trade' offers in the swap meet section.
Heck - someone might even need some upholstery done in trade.
Good luck with your 1 ton, and keep us posted on your progress. | | | | | 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.
