Sheridan's 1946 Chevrolet
Model 3104
1/2 Ton pick-up
 


 

 

Welcome to my Chevy Art Deco Page.  This resource web started as blog of sorts on the restoration of my 1946 1/2 ton Chevrolet Pick-up.   I have since added various links and resources as a reference page for people doing similar restorations.  I will continue to add information over time.  If you have any original documentation or photos for the 41-46 Chevy or GMC trucks that you would like to share, please e-mail it to me for inclusion on the site. 

Thanks to those that have followed the restoration over the 8.5 years.  If this is your first visit, click on the "Read about it"  link below for all the details.
 

Here are my "Before" and "After" photos!

Here's the last couple entries of the Restoration Log:

The truck is back together, running and ready for the Milwaukee Masterpiece on Sunday!

11/14/09 - Winter is quickly approaching but the truck has not quite been put away 9maybe one last drive.  This winter, I will be focusing on restoration of some of the accessories that I have collected over the years .  I have my original radio working and it is ready to be installed.  Still looking for an original dual post red ball  antenna.  I will VERY much struggle to install that once I get it.  Just the thought of drilling holes in the cab just kills me. 

I picked up an old uniform coverall which made the perfect place for me to put my "Approved Chevrolet Mechanic" pin.    

12/07/09 - My search for that elusive spare tire carrier has officially ended !  A HUGE thanks goes to Michael Davidson from Northeastern Oregon.   Michael learned of my search through  this web page and set out on a mission to find one.  As a fellow owner of a '46, this is the type of thing that really makes this hobby a great one.  I have replaced my former Spare Tire Carrier parts wanted page with a Spare Tire Tech info  page covering the spare tire carriers. 

I also managed to find that dual post red ball antenna.  Just waiting to get it in the mail.  I was a bit shocked at how much these things go for.

Here's the last couple entries of the Events & Shows Page:
