Hallo,
i´m an german guy from berlin, germany.

I own an 49 Panel Truck 3100 in horroable condition, but it will a "little" time to rstore it.

My firest question to this forum is:

My block number is 383 38 913

number on the side is: 09597 45 F 54 Z (235ci, built in MI, 1954)

In the casting # , i cant find the number of my block.

Can you help me?

Thanks in forwarding

Thats the casting number for the cylinder head. The casting number for the block is on the right side, below and forward of the distributor.

Dear Robie;

A free catalog from Patrick's will have a lot of free information on your truck.

Their #is: 520.836.1117 or you can write then at 1079 West Main Avenue, Casa Grande, Az. 85230

Good luck.
