I am new to this so please bear with me until i am up to speed. I finally purchased a 1952 gmc panel. i have had my eye on it for two years but the price was too high for me. then the owner came down into my range and i jumped. it is a model 9435 with dual tanks and a 292 engine. it came with new rubber and three tranys one 5 speed installed and 2 ,4 speeds in the back. along with axles and brake pads and the pile of parts i ave not yet identified. does anyone have info on how to get a build sheet from a vin number.

Since you have a Canadian model number I assume you have a Canadian serial number too. If you post the number one of the Canadian members can probably interpret it for you. I don't think there is a way to get a build sheet to go with it.

The 292 is not the original motor and that 5-speed isn't original either.

I'm not up on Canadian model numbers. Is it a 1/2-ton or a 1-ton?

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile

thank you. the serial number is 2943504183.
i know that the old fellow who had the truck did a lot of changes so that it is not stock. but he put a lot of care into every change that he made. any help with the serial is appreciated.

Is that serial # coming from the metal tag,with all the weight specs,etc., on the lower driver side hinge pillar or the smaller stainless tag just above the larger one ? I think it makes a difference when trying to get info.

Here is some information on the numbers for Canadian trucks:

Canadian Serial Numbers

Your panel is a 1 Ton. I am unable to get your link to work but would really like to see your photos.
