hello cheeZ
like you, i just purchased a big bolter. i found a 41 chevy 1.5 ton that had been sitting on a ranch idle for more than 50 years. not quite as clean as yours, but i love the body style. in fact, i had 46 1.5 ton in the early 80's. shouldn't have never let it go. anyway, we seem to be at the same juncture. good luck to you with this project and i'll be sure to keep an eye peeled for your posts.
