Have a 46 1/2 ton pulled apart about 15 years ago doesn't need much work but I need to know what is the best manual or manuals to buy to get this thing back together again. The Body is off and the drive train is out I will be replacing the 216 with a 54 235 the guy I bought it from had replaced the closed driveshaft with an open one. The truck is in pieces all in boxes but so you guys got any idea where to start. Thanks

I have a lot of pictures here. Maybe will help. Tom Brownells "How to restore your Chevy pickup" will help with ideas and procedures as well as Keith Hardys old car manuals website. This Stovebolt site is full of knowledgable friendly experts readily waiting to answer your questions. Have fun and good luck

What transmission and bellhousing will you use, BECAUSE if not using the original, you have lost the mountings for the clutch,brake and mastercylinder. I can send you a picture if you like. Dave

Sheridan, what a great way to document your restoration. What a great website or blog or whatever you call it. If I can figure out how to run this computer better, than I will try to do the same. Your pictures have already been a help to me. Thanks

Dan I started to look at your pics that is what I have to do with mine. the difference is most of it is done. The frame,brakes,chrome,and,most of the body work is finished. I need to do do the engine or put the original back in and I have to patch 2 rear fenders which shouldn't be to hard I have 5 to practice on.I am going to use the 4 speed that I got with the truck. I want to put a 235 from a 54 with hydraulic lifters in as I have a new cam, lifters, valves, valve springs and cam for it. What manuals did you purchace that was most helpful. I may have to take someone up on checking out their truck because I am sure there are going to be 100's of items that I will have no idea where they go. Thanks Wayne

You can send me pictures if needed, I have my 41 chevy torn down and my 41 gmc still in mostly one piece for reference. I just recently tore the chevy down so my memory is still pretty fresh. Dave
