My bud has a 46 chevy and needs some parts. is there a big difference from 47 to 46? Is it because of the war at the time?

Even after the war the first trucks were just warmed over Pre-war versions. Even for 1947 the first trucks were basically a 1946 which is why we have a "1947 1st series" then later the NEW retooled/styled 1947 Advanced Design truck.
So basically from about 41 thru 46 they were pretty much the same. Then the AD years 1947-1955 1st series.
At least this is close!! The experts may chime in. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 1,501 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 1,501 | Check Jim Carter, he has a catalog that goes from 34 or 36 to 46, with lots of parts for the 41 to 46 trucks. Dave
