Going to pick up this 1952 3600 w/title first part of Novemeber caught in a huge range fire 2-years ago. It was a runner 2 owner at the time. Lots of good parts and a complete set of 3/4 ton hubcaps sealed the deal. Check out the carb it got so hot it melted to a puddle yet the license plate 4' away was not even scorched.

I would use it for a parts vehicle. Fire damage ruins bearings, warps transmission cases and a lot of things you would never think of. I am a licensed salvage dealer and I stay away from fire damage. Wheels are usually warped from tires burning off. But for $300, the title is worth that and the sheet metal and that kind of stuff, you can see what you have. With all that said, I still think you got a real good deal.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

It seems like the more I buy the more that people call me to come look. I have an ad on a local no cost TV station and it generates a lead or two a month. It is some fertile ground out here in the west for AD trucks, it has been a fun adventure for my boys and I to go pick them up and part them. I am excited to get this one that massive bumper has protected the grill and I need one for my 1950 3/4.

As compared to most fire damange trucks, this one did not get that hot or hot for a long time, as shown by the glass still intact, etc. Great buy, most parts will be usable, but not all.
