Looking for my old 46 (TX) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I had a 46 back in the mid 80's. It was complete and original but not any where near driveable. It had been sitting for a long long time. The motor was locked up. I had removed the head and was working to free the engine up when I sold it. The original green paint was actually in OK shape under the coat of yellow paint that had been brushed on. The original seat cover was in good shape as well under the stitched on leather cover.

My dad ran 2 gas stations in Rowlett, TX. Lloyd's Texaco and Lloyd's Mobil. I sold it from the gas station when I worked there. From what I remember the person who purchased it lost the head out of the back of the truck while towing it home.

That is one that I wish I had back. Just wondering if someone on here has it.

Thanks,
Matt

I figure it is a long shot. Hopefully it is not crushed. It was a good candidate for a restoration at the time.
