Brad Allen 'Bolter B Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 3,596 Salt Lake City, Utah	This weekend we pulled this 53 3800 home. Came with 3 oil baths, carbs, radiators and the original title for $350. Will start parting it out (some must die so others can live). This is our 23rd AD but only the second 3800. http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2390793400102454676VvZjIZ http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2327252570102454676gGSHhn http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2807578170102454676ocbBrK http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2321201490102454676VdfxZn http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2563480100102454676kJOiAm 1950 Chevrolet 3/4-Ton 3600 More pictures on Flickr

Best thing about parting out vehicles is you don't have to remember how to put them back together! After doing a bunch, you eventually can put them back together.

Funton New Guy F Joined: Jan 2009 Posts: 55 Yamhill, Oregon	Say Brad, are the 3800 numbers on the side of the hood nice chrome instead of being pitted? If they are in good shape I may be interested. I'm about 2 weeks from having my 1953 1ton restored. I'll check here to see if you get my message. FUNTON
