I guess title says it all, but where do I find Chevrolet Fisher Body Shop Manual Book for 31-32 chevy 1.5 ton truck?

I found 33-36 body manuals on ebay but can't seem to locate the 31-32 body book anywhere for sale or download . The frame measurements are probably fairly close but have different body styles so I would rather find the correct book in case I need other info later in the build.

If anyone has a scanned copy, down-loadable source , or a place to buy the actual body shop manual for 31-32 1.5 ton truck 157" wheel base please let me know by posting here, Pm me or email me

.

I'm not sure if that year truck is a Fisher Body. You could look at the Filling Station at www.fillingstation.com If I'm wrong some will will correct me I hope.

Truck bodies were made by Chevrolet and I have never seen a truck body manual.

I believe that prior to 1931 bodies for Chevrolet trucks were made by independent manufacturers.

I believe it is Bill's web site that says 1930 and earlier where independently made and in 1931 chevy started to produce there own body's so I would think they had body manuals for a 31-32 somewhere (but could be wrong) there is reprints of 33-36 body manual on ebay now but he said he doesn't have access to the 31-32 manual so I had kinda hoped someone here mite know where I could get one

I have never seen or heard of a truck body manual for those years. Been messing with '31-2 trucks for nearly 40 years.

Yes Chevrolet made truck bodies when they purchased Martin Parry in 1930 and integrated it into the company as the Commercial Division headquartered in Indianapolis. It was not associated with Fisher Body.


How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!
