Re: Lets see your truck!
Here's my '46, "Rusty". Posted on other sites, I just found this one. He's on a '94 regular cab swb S10 frame, still running the stock S10 4 banger/5speed. No plans to change him much, we enjoy him just as he is.:lol:

Cash in pocket, I rent a flatbed trailer, hook up and drive from Phoenix to Tucson to pick it up. I'm not a mile from the owners house when he calls me and says someone else offered him $500 more and already took it away. I was gutted! -Steve |
Re: Lets see your truck!
Here is mine. It is not much to look at. It belonged to The Department of the Interior - Bureau of Mines until 1976. It was then bought by the local John Deere dealer. He had plans to restore it to haul an antique tractor to tractors show. He never built it so I bought it about 12 years ago. It is still sitting. Maybe I'll get around to it some day. It shows 38681 on the odometer. It is still completely original.

My dad's '39 Chevy 1/2 ton short bed when he bought it, around 1982.
He stripped it down, sand blasted it, and then it sat for 10 years. Sold it to the neighbor for $800. 5 years later he bought it back for $400. Currently it has a Pontiac front sub frame and 305/350 (it was free). I'm trying to get him motivated to finish it or sell it to me. |

OK it's not GM but it's close. It's an REO Speedwagon (not the band). REO is the initials of Ransom Eli Olds, the founder of Oldsmobile.
My dad bought this 1946 in 1958 and used it on the farm. It sat since 1962. I started restoring it 4 years ago. Just wanted to show it off. I thought you might like it. |
Re: Lets see your truck!
Great looking truck. Does it have glass?
|
Re: Lets see your truck!
Yes, we had all new glass cut. It took me 3 months to build a new crank out windshield frame.

Building a new window frame is something that I would like to see documented here. Any pics of how you managed that? I have two that I can work with but neither are much to start with. I was thinking that I would just eliminate it but it is such a cool feature that the time spent would be worth it to me! |
Re: Lets see your truck!
No pics, I try to give detail in another thread.

Re: Lets see your truck!
Are you hands on , do it yourself kind of man ?
|
Re: Lets see your truck!
Sure am Mundo. I don't like other people workin on my stuff, Even my newer vehicles. I always figured if he can do it why can't i?!. as a small child i would take apart brand new toys just to figure out how they worked and put them back together before my parents caught me.
|
Re: Lets see your truck!
You know sir, I used to take things apart but unlike you I couldn't put them back together !!!!, Until as of late , things are starting to make sense..
Are you currently building a project ? |
Re: Lets see your truck!
Not at this time, I need to get that dump indoors.
|
Re: Lets see your truck!
What are your plans for that dump ? Looks like a solid truck, I have my 46 for sale, just need a reason to keep it !!! lol
|
Re: Lets see your truck!

|
Re: Lets see your truck!
These cars are really old yet nice. They are worth keeping for. There are only few left with this type of car now and I guess no other manufacturers.
