That one has been for sale for several years on and off. I was looking at it but ended up buying a 1950 Chevrolet Coke Delivery truck a few weeks ago. I don't have it home yet but hopefully in the next few weeks will get it here.

Love it ! I have a 1949 3800 1 ton flat bed I have been working on for the fast few years. Mine came with the single rear wheels.

The day I picked it up

cutting all the rust out

Originally I had planed on it being Dr Pepper red but after putting the first coat on I think it was Coke red

Prep & paint the frame.

trying out some chevy 2500 rims. They did not work on the front due to the backspace needed.

After finishing the bed, still have some work to do on the rails.
