New 55 1st series purchase....educate me.
I bought a 55 first series 3100 this week and have several questions I am hoping some of you can answer.
First off, the truck is in very solid condition with the general spotty surface rust, but no rust-through except for behind the left front fender on the cab. We drove it home and everything worked well. We paid 1900........too much? just right? good deal? we liked it so we jumped on it. Also has chrome smoothies and good radials, but all else is stock. Questions: 1. is there a patch piece available for that rusted spot behind the left front fender on the cab? 2. Is it a 6 volt or 12 volt system? we threw a 12 volt in it to get it home, but wonder what is correct. I have been searching online, but the info on the 1st series seems inconsistent. Also is it a negative or positive ground system? 3. What parts outlet would you recommend? Would I have better luck searching for 54 or 55 parts on this particular vehicle......I am currently under the impression that driveline is like 55, but body and such like 54. 4. If you were setting it up for a decent driver with a better stance, what would you recommend for the plan of action with this thing? We have built up other cars and have solid fab skills, but the current plan is just to make a good solid driver with a good stance. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
