Hello everybody! First off my names dan.Im from southern minnesota and a senior in high school. Ive always dreamed of owning a classic but never had the funds being 18 and working at a min wage job. I was lurking around my area and found a 1946 chevy fleetmaster in very good condition. I talked to the owner and he wanted $400 for it. I sold my old laptop and and got it the next day . Ive been working on it everyday since then. Im lovin it! Oh yea its a 216 stovebolt thats all original from what it looks like. I will post pics when someone can teach me how! Thanks for reading
So welcome to the stovebolt Dan. over at the bottom left of this page is an Image Posting Policy. Basically you have to host the pics somewhere else like photobucket and then just post links here.

Welcome to the Bolt Dan. I'ts very refreshing to see younger folks getting involed with these old trucks. We are here to help so fire away with those questions,..and some pics too.
Hi Dan,great to see another young 'un joining up. Sounds like you're well and truly hooked!
As the guys have already said,ask all the questions you need,that's what the Stovebolt's all about.
P.S. Hurry up with those pics! We're waiting......... Jock.

Its a big work in progress but ive owned it for about 3 weeks and im already priming it for a flat black paint job. The engine went from being stuck and rusty to loose and clean
