My name is Jeff,just your average black and blue collar guy,I am into custom motor cycles,Ham radio and of coarse old trucks,tried the circle track thing back in the 90's(mini-stock pintos).
Now to the important part.I inheirited a 1953 3100.My grandfather bought it in '53,he died in 1983 and my cousin got it.And then last december he died and now I have it.It has not ran since 1984,and it was a farm truck its hole life.Lots of work to do,but for the most part it's pretty solid.

I think its great that your turn has come to care for the 53. The AD's are good trucks to work on and parts are still available. Now, how about some pics....keep us updated and if you need something give us a call. | | | | | Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 163 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 163 | Hello!

Great to see you're keeping the old truck in the family.
It might make a good bike transporter....
Pics would be nice.
Good luck.
