Insured the 46 the other day and went for a 20 mile cruise, what an awsome ride,but why is everyone honking at me smile . Got the grill back and have it installed. Mounted the widened bumper and deck also. I don't even notice that the fenders were widend 4 inches each anymore. A few more bugs to work out and charge the air conditioning then it is time to install the hood and start enjoying. Have a look at the updated pictures here, go to widened bumper photo

Sublime, You've done an awesome job on your truck. I can't imagine the number of hours you've got into that project, but I'm betting they'll be nothing compared to the hours of enjoyment you'll get back.

Congratulations!

Thank Jed
Your 46 is really nice looking also. I am going to redo my 40 to original, So that way nobody can [censored] at me, for in some people's eye's, butchering my 46, and that way I get the best of both worlds

Yea.. that truck is fine as frogs hair!

Looks good, true to the original lines, and functional for your needs.. you've got the best of all worlds in one nice looking package.

A truck that pretty, i'd be afraid to use as a work truck.


an idea is only stupid if you think about it rationally.

Nice job. What are the twin tanks on the bed for? I don't remember.

Thank you for the feedback

The dual tanks are for propane. With the price of gas, up to a $ 1.13 a litre for regular compared to .52 cents a litre for propane. Plus I have it set up so I can hook up a barbacue, propane lattern and tourch. for camping purposes. I would have liked to install the under the bed, but there wasn't enough room. I will have a cover made to hide them from veiw
