Great to hear someone else who will actually keep a big truck stock. Few enough people will leave an vehicle stock, even fewer will want a truck...and even fewer a big old truck.
It looks a little like when I went to get my '46 1.5ton....except you have a bigger truck, bigger trailer, were getting a bigger truck and your '46 is in a lot better shape.
Keep us posted on your progress.....everyone like pictures, and seeing someone else make progress is a great motivator
I did notice that your trailer is two single wheels on the axles. Was it made that way or are you just running single? I was under the impression that all of the deck over trailers were dually....but then there is a lot I don't know

What is the load rating? Really it has nothing to do with anything....just curiosity.
