Hi All:
My brother saved a '52 B3 this last December/January. I hauled it to his house, moving it from near Barstow, Calif. to about 1/2 hour outside of Fresno, Calif.
It's REALLY complete (except for one item missing on the engine which we're not sure of- there's a 1/2" steel tube with flare and nut with nothing attached near the firewall on the passenger side).
It doesn't run- on my advice he has already removed the manifolds to clean out the intake and will be removing the radiator and water pump to inspect the water distribution tube before trying to even start the engine. Also, he has already rebuilt the carburetor.
That's a '41 military 1/2 ton he got early in 2010 next to it; also my little Dakota getting ready to pull 6,800 pounds over Tehachapi pass (this truck has been a real work horse for me for its size!).
