Thank you folks so much for the add! I purchased a 1946 3/4 ton with the original running 216 in it. It was originally a pickup but was changed to a flatbed dump back in the early 60s. I intend on putting it back to it’s original form.
The truck has spent it’s entire life within a 20 mile radius. Bought brand new by a Mr. Ripley, then sold to the Greenough farm located in Dresden a short time later. That’s when it was changed to a flatbed. Hauling hay and firewood. I don’t know exactly how long it was on that farm for but was sold to the Lamphere farm in Whitehall. Now she sits idle (for the winter) in a nice heated garage.
This forum is full of knowledgeable members. I’ve only looked at a few threads but I know I’m in the right place. Thank you again!
Scott

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

Thank you folks! I Attached a couple of pictures on this message. Figured out how to resize them according to the rules. Definitely not your typical northeast truck. I do appreciate the welcome!

Welcome to the Bolt!
Nice truck! I'm a fan of '46's myself. Don't own one, but grew up with one.

Thanks! I really admire the 41-46. You could always break down and buy one!
