also, i'm on my 2nd golden retriever myself. he's part of the family. they don't make a better dog. and, really like your 46 panel. one day i would like to get one. i had a 46 1.5 ton about 30 years ago. that's why i jumped on this truck when i found it. the art deco years are my absolute favorites. in fact, if i had my druthers, i would be driving a fully restored 41 through 46 panel just like yours. one day maybe.
