I have a 1946 1/2 ton that has seen 50+ Iowa winters and is pretty rusty.
I'm pretty sure it's 100% original, but the bed has rusted off its brackets
and the doors and cab have some holes.
My question is, should I use this truck as the basis of my project, or
should I find a better truck and use this one for parts? I am interested in
finding a truck with less rust, but I'd like to know if this holy grail
exists.
Does anyone have any suggestions/sightings of similar trucks? What areas of
the country should I look in? I've always heard about AZ, but some people
have mentioned TX and OR, so now I'm confused. (All I know for sure is that
IA is not mentioned)
I hope someone can lend me a hand to save my truck.
Thanks
Gene Merritt
