Looks like a pretty rare rig in my neighborhood is for sale. 1950 3800 w/ 9' bed.

Check out this item on OfferUp. https://offerup.co/dUhR6lMv6tb
Wow, the guy who wrote the offer is good enough to write speeches for Brandon. Chevrolet (and GMC Truck) made thousands of these 9' monsters, and a lot more than 17 were produced in 1950. This series of one tons was a standard catalog offering from 1939 thru 1965.

I wonder if that production figure is accurate?

Rare or not, it's a cool truck.
Probably for 1950 as stated, but higher after that

That's not actually a bad price at all if it is in fact as rust free as it looks. You never see something like that at those prices in the north east.
Driving that thing around is like birth control on 4 wheels. You’d never get laid!

After 25 years of marriage, I'm pretty used to that problem.......lol
Ha, just wait until it reaches 48. Then you understand the word exponentially quite clearly.

Yeah, I've got a half dozen or more out at the cattle ranch. I stopped buying them for $25 or thereabouts when I got too old and couldn't lift them anymore.
