I am going to try the Behr route after reading how pleased people have been with it. This is 1944mb's engine, but he used the paint color I picked out a few years back. It is about as close to a perfect match as I could get to some original paint I found on an old gas can and under some layers...

Progress is slow but it is happening. One of my wheels is an oddball. None of the others have this marking.

Here are a few data plates I have seen and thought to take pictures of. Maybe it will help narrow down a month for you. 19,090 by May 1952!

My trucks have style B. 5314 was made February 1952 and 4984 was made January 1952. There are no order numbers on any of my trucks. Not sure On the 4G marking since there was also a 4A marking under that. I read somewhere that the 4A and 4G markings was a change the Army made in the 1960's...

It appears to be mostly complete! When will you try to start it?

If you ever get out this way, I think I have some of what you need. Passenger seat (would have to make sure it isn't rusted out) and canvas top. Can you post some pictures of what the engine looks like?

I'm not sure how you can single the truck out without getting very invasive or have it be reversible. Man those rules in California are stupid. Do you have a friend outside city limits where you could park the truck so you don't have to chop it? Please do post more pictures when you get a...

Looks good!

Best gaskets added.

I'm finally getting rested back up from the trip north. We played hard, accomplished much and slept little. We had so much fun, but I am paying for it this week. Now that I am more rested, I figured I'd share some pictures and some more of the story. First is the picture of the snake that...

Here are pictures of the rubber piece under the hood we spoke about on the phone the other day. I need to figure out how to make some new ones since mine are rough.

I will get these numbers added soon.

I got the belt number changed and the manifold gaskets removed. Still looking for a part number for the pilot bearing for the transmission and a proper fitting manifold gasket. To all....please let me know if a part does not work. Most of these part numbers have been contributed by various ones...

Very cool!! I wonder how all that ended up going so far north.

I haven't been keeping up with you guys since we got here. We had a really nice drive up here to Montana. We left out last Friday after work. Due to poor planning on my part, no motels were available after we got to the desired stopping point. The closest available motel was hours away so that...

We do have some great vendors. Unfortunately I can't post what they have for sale in this list. I was told early on that vendors had to list what they have for sale in the vendors section or classifieds if they are not a vendor but just selling off parts. I know that sometimes those adds get...

Does he have an pictures of the trucks from his Air Force days? Would be neat if he did so you could duplicate the truck markings, etc.

Very cool! Did he drive them in the Army?

Here are those parts I'm bringing for you. Let me know if you think of anything else you need.

Thank you for the fine compliment. I think about all of us have contributed part numbers to the list. It is exciting to see so many parts readily available for these trucks and new discoveries made. A big thanks to all of you too. Keep those part numbers coming!!
