It's nice to see someone restore a vehicle the way it should be done. This is truly a restoration not a quick tidy up or a modification with fat tyres, different motor, different suspension etc, etc. You can justly be proud of your work. Well done!

Very deceiving. It was pretty bad with rust holes that were bondo filled and metal cracks, etc. the hunt for solid metal was fun!

Great engineering . 6cyl could move big truck !

Great video! I have a 46 Dodge that I am just starting to restore!! Beautiful work! Dave from Long Island

We are just a couple connections from finishing the wiring and installing the dash.

To some, an old Chevrolet pickup truck may not mean much but like most of us when we get to know a little about each others' history we become more interesting. My Dad was a WWII navy veteran and he owned a 1945 Chevrolet pick-up that he used to haul feed hay to the ranching customers of his Cottonwood Feed and Seed store.The only trucks built in the U.S. between 1941 and 1946 were built for the military.

Lindo esse tipo ( modelo chevrolet gigante ) anos 40. Segunda guerra mundial. Esse modelo de caminhão foi quem desbravou Goiás, mesmo sem estradas. E em muitos lugares as estradas eram construídas pelos moradores locais e pelos antigos CHOFER ( motoristas), estradas essas feitas a ENXADOES, Enxadas, machados e facoes.

Seu motor de 06 cilindros a gasolina. Era uma verdadeira obra de arte. Fascinava as mulheres da época. Quase todas queria namorar o famoso chofer.

O seu funcionamento (partida) eram na MANIVELA) NÃO possuía o espelho retrovisor pelo lado direito. Usavam se correntes nos pneus traseiros (tracção) nos atoleiros. Os chofers tinham que ser motoristas; mecânicos, eletricistas e borracheiros.

realy good job kind regards Da Kropfinga.at

Really pretty job. Did you keep the 4:11 ring and pinion, or go to a 3:55?

Andrew Bardone I unfortunately lost my hosting and have not had the opportunity to rebuild the site. While I have the resources, I simply have failed to find the time to rebuild it. If you are building a similar truck and have questions or need info; shoot me an email at 46chevy@att.net

Tim Sheridan thanks for the quick response! Don’t have the truck yet to restore or the time to dedicate as I’m swamped with the engineering program at Penn State, this is however my dream resto project and I’d like to do a ground up factory restoration like you did! I’m sure I will have lots of questions for you once I start haha. Just out of curiosity did you Babbitt the rings yourself, have them bored out to fit bearings or send the parts out? Looks like a fun technique to learn. Oh and how’s the Burb resto coming along?

@46chevytruck

Andrew Bardone sold the burb to someone that is keeping it original. I found oversized pistons and rods with the Babbitt done so I just used those. Local machine shop did the machining for me. Search artdecotruck.com on Facebook. I have a page out there you will like.
