Here's the story. A month or so ago my buddy Dave called me to say that a friend of his was going to come over and take some pictures of his truck (a 1941 1/2 ton) he said I should bring my 46 over because two old chevys are always better than one. So when I got there it turns out that the guys taking the pictures are the editors of Pickup Truck magazine from Japan.
We spent a couple of hours talking old trucks and taking pictures. What a great time. I was kind of suprized that the Jpanese are interested in old trucks. Well I guess they are. They did an entire artical on trucks in the LA area.
Well they sent me a copy of the magazine and low and behold my buddys truck is on the front cover! They did a feature artical on our trucks. There's a great two page picture of both our trucks plus pictures of Me and Dave with our trucks, and some detail pictures of the engines and the differences between the 41 and 46 year trucks.
I'll have to get the artical translated into english. It's going to be interesting what they said about our trucks.
If it doesn't infringe on any copyright laws maybe I can scan a couple of the pictures. How bout it Peg, Would this be OK?
If so I can get them scanned and perhaps someone would be willing to post them for me, as I can't post pictures from here. (long story)
It was a fun experence all around. I'm not sure if we have any Stovebolters in Japan, but if so You might want to look a copy of Pickup Truck.
