The pickup is a new acquisition and has some gremlins to work out, seem mostly to be from sitting too long. Great information on this site. Thanks for letting me join. ~TF Attachments 66D0B820-09A6-471D-8BC8-17BEC51B5B28.jpeg (407.48 KB, 175 downloads) 4FC9833B-24F7-4898-B537-C0ED71990F87.jpeg (288.69 KB, 177 downloads) A88D9730-DF2D-4334-BFB1-F586E47A4F21.jpeg (266.75 KB, 174 downloads) EE364BD9-212F-40E6-881F-41F3F315C1D3.jpeg (220.7 KB, 177 downloads) 12730AA6-E0DA-489A-B31D-833DD7FEAB55.jpeg (40.7 KB, 172 downloads) Last edited by Peggy M; 12/04/2023 10:05 PM. 1946 Chevrolet 3100 1/2 ton 1940 Chevrolet Master 85 Coupe

I'm in Aroostook county and run a 1946 GMC 3/4 ton that I finished restoring a couple of years ago. Have additional non-runners; 41,45, and another 46. Let me know if you need any thing. 1946 with WWII 270

Not sure what he was talking about for a forum for your '40. They don't usually allow car photos on this site unless it's a daily driver. Rich 1947 Loadmaster 1947 Chev. Loadmaster 1959 Chev.

It has the same engine and instrument cluster as my coupe, so it feels very familiar. I always wanted a pickup of this vintage, but always dragged my heals and lost out on the ones I saw....not this time. 1946 Chevrolet 3100 1/2 ton 1940 Chevrolet Master 85 Coupe
