This is my 1949 3100 1/2 ton. Got it about seven years ago and it is nearing completion - but when are they ever REALLY done. It is a daily driver, but still needs a little more TLC. It is mostly original, but is sporting a 235 6 cyl and has an open driveline with 3.25 rearend gears which help it get down the highway a bit better! It has an original radio, deluxe heater, new bed wood (varnished yellow pine), a windshield washer, and a Weiand dual intake manifold (with twin oil bath air cleaners on top of Rochester 1 bbl carbs). I am always looking for other options (so if you know of any, email me).

The above picture was drawn by Dic Pate of "Pate's Pencil Pushin' Page" fame.
