Hi everybody, now i can smile again. the first step is ready. the bed is done also finish the engine (rebuild), transmission (rebuild), brakes (all parts new, i remember the invoice ). I think i have new friends (Jim Carter and Chev's of the 40's Now i'm waiting for the cab. My Painter works on it and found a lot of rust holes at the rear, but i saw the primer on the cab today. I hope i can get the cab next week. Come back with new pics..... i have one question: i'm looking for pics from the windshield hinge. these parts are not at this truck (the windshield was w/o the frame) and i have to reproduce. (1/2 ton from 1946)
Looking Good ! Volker ; Ity's been years since I had a 1946 Chevy truck but I can tell you that the cab (and therefore the windshiled , frame & hinges) are the same from 1941 to early 1947 . If you go to The Stovebolt Page and look up a fellow named ' Mothertrucker ' who sells in the parts forum , he should be able to fix you right up with some hinges . Remember to send us pix of it as you go along .
Thanks for this information. i found and sent an eMail. Of course, i come back with new pics ASAP. Volker
What a great project you have going, Volker! Can't wait to see the pictures of the rest of your ride!
