Start of another 32 project

Highly doubtful he will be using the vin. No registration plus long story short, he knows nothing in regards to 32’s hence the reason the cab, box, fenders and boards are going on the Sonoma chassis.

Again, I hope you're right. Down here, a clear title is the first requirement for a purchase.

I found it on Vancouver Island.

Model B ,4 Cyl vin

It's a U.S. four-cylinder engine number (vin), not Canadian, but that should not be an issue when registering it in Canada.

Yes it is. Before I can register it in Canada it will need a body on top. Either way, it’s a decent frame with little work to make it nice. No heavy pitting like some I see for sale, just some cracks and bends from years of service under a pickup in a logging camp. It has been parked many years in a shed from what I was told.

Been through this with my pickup as well. Either way, it’s a decent start regardless of registration and as a friend said, he can spot repro rails a mile away.

Without them, the market for garbage truck engines would not be there.

Then there are the guys who say, "I love the 1936 Ford". Then they tell you how they removed all the original 1936 Ford pieces, installed a chevy engine and vega steering and then they call it a "restoration."

"All Henry Steel" and GM everything else.

Nailed it Really get a laugh out of people saying all original but SBC, glass fenders and the list goes on…

Well…. this ended fast. Long story short, it is heading to Australia.

Maybe keep track of the guy and get the cab and bed when he figures out that a '32 and a GMC chassis are not a good match.

Too late for that.
The chassis is now destined for Australia, minus the wheels. Long story short, I sold it and my 32 pickup which is going to Germany to fund the 32 closed car I have a deposit on. I pick it up in the spring.
