Hello-
Would anyone know where I could find a pictorial showing the headlight bucket assembly on a 46' Chevrolet? Thank you.

I'd be interested in having that too, as well as one for a 41'. My understanding is that there is a difference in the parking light assembly for 41' vs. 42-46. Otherwise, I think the bucket, ex the parking light is the same.

Couldn't find the online catalog from Jim Carter but in my paper catalog help page 132 shows a breakdown. I could scan and send if needed.

Thanks Gene. I found the headlight bucket, but not the parking light assembly. I did note what appears to be a differenc in the bucket. Yours has a "plate" between the bucket and the fender. Based on what I can see through the sealed beam opening, mine does not; could have been left out at some point in it's life. Mine is titled as a 41' but I see a lot of indicators to say it's more 46' than 41', so chasing every detail at this point.

There is the head light inner ring riveted to the bucket on the front. Whatyou might see between the bottom and the fender is rubber gasket but the bucket is open to the fender except for a cross piece toward the front bottom. My parking light housing is one piece. I have seen the 41 on ebay and it is a lot different. My truck is titled 46 but it has exposed welds on the a pillar, a leather gas tank gasket,curved door painted door handles. I am sure gm used parts up from the 41 or even before to assemble my truck so I betyou have amix too.
