Well, the other thing I've thought I might do is rebody it as a '51. I've got all that stuff, plus that'd neutralize Bob Jones' sins for putting '48-'50 sheet metal on his '51 F-4. Unless, of course, that'd make me a dark sider! Stu

Sounds like when Mom or Dad used to threaten to pull the car over to the shoulder to settle an argument going on in the back seat.
Truth is the truck deserves to stay a 1950. For some reason most of the F-2 or F-3 Marmon-Herringtons that have survived are 1952s. I've asked Chuck if he can think of why that might be but he didn't know of any reason. I can think of maybe five 48-50s that have surfaced since I've been keeping track (going on 10 years), I can think of four 1951s, and a dozen or more '52s. Stu

Could be that the WWII Surplus 4x4 Trucks were starting to dry up
