You're probably in the wrong forum. The F-3's (M-H Model R3-4 or R32-4) first year was 1948. The 1947 and earlier equal would be the tonner (M-H Model OT5-4), but I know of only two ever found. There's a M-H group of us over on the 1948-1956 forum if you want to join us there. Unless the moderator moves your thread. I don't know of any trucks for sale, but one of the other guys might have suggestions. Stu

Whats your idea of "nice"? With only a handful of survivors any F3 MH should qualify as nice. Heck, I can only think of a couple that actually run as of today. I have a Coleman F4 we can talk about. It just needs a few thousand dollars worth of wheel bearings, stuck flathead etc.

Yeah, the guys here I believe account for probably half of the known population of F-2/F-3s. But none of ours are yet fully restored. Two restored trucks have been for sale in the $35,000 neighborhood. One I know sold on eBay while the other failed to meet reserve. If you want it I have contact info for the original owner who can refer you to the guy he sold it to. Don't know if it's still available. A couple of "as found" trucks sold this year on eBay for about $4500 each. Stu

To put some perspective on those $4,500 "as found" F-3 M-H project trucks I mentioned, here's a '52 F-1 M-H project now in Hemmings with asking price of $15,000. The half tons still appear to be thought of as a lot more valuable. Asking and getting are of course different. Stu

Hmm, drivelines are off. Could be trouble?

Yeah, have seen it. And it might have been mentioned here earlier too. For a guy looking for a big truck it's pretty nice. And an added bonus, it has Daytons on the rear and the Budd-to-Dayton adapters up front. Any tubeless 22.5" outer rims will fit. Stu
