Checking in.

Just a quick hello to all.
Will be mostly hanging out in the "older classic and Antique Trucks threads" as that's where my interests are (But enjoy reading all submitted contributions).

I am a proud steward of a 1946 matching numbers, 6 volt Mercury 1 Ton Express survivor. I purchased her in fairly decent condition (Third owner). First owner was from Ontario and settled in Ohio. Second owner was also an Ohio resident. I enjoyed keeping them abreast of her progress. I have had her garaged slowly picking away on her off and on over the past 9 years. This year is the big push to get her truly roadworthy. Long term goal is to maintain her as original as possible and pass her down to my nephew when I can no longer double clutch. In the interim, No trailer queen, intend to drive the heck out of her.

Big Thank you to member @51504BAT who helped me source much needed correct rear wheel cylinders this AM.
Thanks again.
