I looked at the '46-'47 cabs I have today and didn't see the one I took the clearance light bar off of. I did have a '41 1 1/2 ton that I scrapped out a few years ago, it may have come off of that cab.

I live in Montreal. We have neighbours from the Gaspé. I have a soft spot for '42 to '47 Ford trucks as my father had one for his fuel oil delivery business.

About the horn a few pages back, I believe you are correct, it was standard equipment.
The two photos are from my Canadian 1946 Ford truck sales brochure.

I don't have a truck, I'm just a big fan of flathead Ford trucks. Here's a picture of my father's fuel oil delivery truck he owned in the early 50's. Joe.

little updates sanding is long and tedious. i,ve hired a young guy to help with bondo and sending. actually he probably better than me ! were going along slowly. i will probably finish later than i would like but once done its going to be a big step. brought my speedometer to weld the gear that i unjammed.
was going to post a few pictures but photobucket doesn,t work i will try later. i will paint the inside light grey like our friend down under.

i would like to set my odometer to 000000. the numbers that were showing are all brittle! a drill seems like a long process,has anybody ever taken apart the odometer to do this. i still can,t get my photbucket to work,trying a different way!
