I finally found one locally for a price I was happy with. I know I’m going to have questions at some point, but for now I figured I’d just introduce myself and start reading the board a bit more.

The 235 has a few minor issues, needs a water pump, and something is off with the L rear shock. Huck breaks were recently rebuilt with new lines. Body work on the bed is the biggest lift, but i’ve got the time to do it right.

Welcome to the Bolt! | | | | | Joined: Jul 2018 Posts: 279 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2018 Posts: 279 | Good job, EWW ! Must be a nice feeling to finally realise a dream. I,too have wanted a 46, ever since owning one briefly in about 1972.
It had the 216 though. Looks like your truck has some upgrades done and is ready to continue to completion.
Complete , is a subjective concept. !

On one hand the way it sits is very practical for runs to town or the dump. However, I could turn it into a shiny thing that is beautiful and I’m afraid to scratch.
I’m just happy it’s now in my garage and no longer sitting outside under an old car cover.
