We will keep you posted when we find the right one. I can't wait. My father's first truck was a green '53 3100, and I have always wanted to own one.

You might want to place an ad in the Trucks Wanted area of the swap meet.
When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

I have limited time with 3 young daughters so we are hoping to find a completed truck in the $9-15k range. I have restored several cars and motorcycles over the years, and know that I could never finish a project truck. | | | | | 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 | Again, welcome to the Stovebolt and let us know what you find or purchase.

Hope your bid is successful. There are lots more in your neck of the woods. Oh, and never say never, in my opinion trucks are easier to restore than cars.

I am working through my first one now and its great! Hang in there and find one that will work for you and your family as you intend it too.
*UNDER CONSTRUCTION* 1953 Chevrolet 3100 1/2 ton-previously abandoned resto. My Project BoltI hate when people leave their brains at home. Seriously when did critical thinking and customer service go out the window? How about common sense and striving to go the extra mile? Idiots, surrounded by idiots it tell you.

I do enjoy the restoration process, but I don't think I will tackle a 5 year restoration again until the kids are a bit older. | | | | | 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 | Congrats on your new project, Nielert.
