Re: 1946 ford truck??????
If it's a half ton pickup you might be ok in a rust free area of Texas. I just wrote two long paragraphs about restoration of these great old trucks, rust etc, but deleted them because it really boiled down to your level of experience and commitment. Have you been a part of the old car hobby, done restorations, have mechanical abilities? If you have to hire out the inevitable bugs, you would likely be far better off buying a running truck you can test drive and then tinker on as you go. And we love pictures if you can get one!
