This old B3 followed me home last week.

Piced this up last Tuesday. Drove it home 23 miles. Just put new tires on it today. Needs a carb kit and a tune up but pretty solid. 51 B3B with a flathead and 3 on the tree

Nice truck, congratulations! I like the color, a friend has a 55 Job Rated Deluxe. And I too would like to see more pictures please.
 
As requested a few more pictures. I did kinda rebuild the carb and it’s loads better now. If anyone knows how to adjust the main jet on an old carter ball and ball I’d appreciate the advice. It’s really nice truck. I don’t think it’s original paint but an old paint job. It belonged to a school principal who passed away several years ago. Been in his barn for around 12 years.

I learned to drive in one of those in the mid-60's, a '53 I believe, compound low 4-speed. Cool find!!
 
I've always thought the 52-54 automobile designs not the best.

But not true for pickup trucks. Possibly the best looking era of all pickup models.
