Bill,
Thanks .... and one more question - I have yet to find power steering or power assist kits for a '46 and have looked in my catalogs and online ..... do you or anyone know who sells these? So far i have only found them for 47 and up. Parts for the '46 seem more rare and hard to get. I imagine that there aren't enough of them out there for manufacturers to commit to design and implementation of things for these trucks [window regulators and so forth come to mind].
