Hi, I have been on this forum since last summer when I bought another 46 Chev 1/2 ton. I had one that I used for a daily driver, took the differential out, sat for 25 years and eventually sold it. Regretted that decision, so am starting again. I am presently working on the box. Have a rebuilt 235 to install and am going with fiberglass fenders and running boards, as mine are too far gone. http://s1303.photobucket.com/user/Brenda_Fiege/library/Mobile%20Uploads?sort=3&page=1

Elton, it sure sits up nice and pretty. Had a 46 myself back in 1985 and wish I had kept it!
Nothing wrong with fiberglass fenders. I've been running all 4 fenders fiberglass on my 37 for 15 years and no problems at all.
Kind of helps it go faster. LOL
...and I have ribbed fiberglass running boards as well. All holding up good. Beats the price of metal and body work!

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile

I added some pictures of the truck that I sold. Kids jumped on the roof and caved it in, and I had to move it to another farm that has no hiding places (ie bush) so I thought it would get vandalized and parts stolen, so I sold it. Doesn't hurt quite as much to look at it now that I have another, but still not one of my better decisions.

Did a little shopping tonight bought 3 trucks, te price was right. So now I I don't know what I will do with them. 2 are missing the serial number plates, enough parts to piece a couple of trucks together. I will post pictures in a few minutes.

Nice picking, you will end up with one fine truck.
The 1957 sports sedan will be quite a save for someone.
