Vehicle Detail
1951 Chevy 5 window truck COMPLETE THE TITLE IS CLEAR AND IN MY NAME FOR EASY TRANSFER. IT IS TITLED PROPERLY AS A 1951 CHEVY TRUCK. PLEASE NOTE THE TUNNEL RAM THAT IS ON IT IN THE PHOTOS HAS BEEN TAKEN OFF. IT HAS BEEN SWITCHED OVER TO A SINGLE CARB DUAL PLANE INTAKE. WATCH THE VIDEOS BELOW TO SEE IT IN ITS CURRENT STATE. ONLY AFTER READING THE ENTIRE LISTING AND VIEWING ALL THE PHOTOS IF YOU STILL HAVE QUESTIONS YOU CAN CALL OR TEXT (812)-820-2945 This truck is unlike any other hot rod or rat rod out there. I started with a 1951 chevy 5 window cab and narrowed it 12”, chopped it 6” in the rear and 7.5” in the front, then I took a 5” section off the bottom of the cab and redesigned the entire front cowl section. After the cab was put back together I hand built a custom one of a kind frame and bed for the beast. Please read the entire description and look at all the photos of this truck and build progress to see all the work that went into it so far. ELECTRICAL- For the wiring harness I started with a Painless Wiring fuseblock. The truck has high beams, low beams on a dimmer switch, 4 corner turn signals, hazard lights, electric fan, electric fuel pump, and a jegs roll control with button on the shifter handle. FRAME- The frame is all custom built. Check out the pics and notice all the braces and gussets throughout the entire frame. It was built to hold up for the life of the truck. SUSPENSION- The suspension is a traditional hot rod setup with a medium arch leaf setup on the rear and a model A spring up front on a ford straight axle. The rear has custom built ladder bars while the front has model a ford wishbones. The rear has tube shocks and the front has some custom handmade friction shocks. DRIVETRAIN- The rearend is a posi track 8.25 rearend out of a 73 plymouth fury. The transmission is a 350 turbo automatic that I ordered new from JEGS. Upon arrival the delivery guy had dropped the trans and it had a couple small cracks in the casing around the bellhousing portion of the trans. I had a local machine shop repair the cracks so there are a couple welds on the trans, but internally it is still all new. The motor is a 355 Small Block Chevy that runs great. It has a Holley aluminum intake with an Edelbrock 650cfm carb with electric choke. PLEASE NOTE THE TUNNEL RAM THAT IS ON IT IN THE PHOTOS HAS BEEN TAKEN OFF. IT HAS BEEN SWITCHED OVER TO A SINGLE CARB DUAL PLANE INTAKE. WATCH THE VIDEOS BELOW TO SEE IT IN ITS CURRENT STATE. BRAKES- The truck has new disc brakes, spindles, and kingpins up front. All came frome speedway motors and utilize the common GM metric disc brake parts. There is a JEGS roll control hooked up to the front brakes. The master cylinder is a new gm master cylinder. The rear brakes are all new drum brakes for the 73 plymouth fury rearend. Please look at all of the photos and read the entire description. The truck is titled as a 1951 chevy. I will consider all reasonable offers, just ask. The truck is sold AS IS, WHERE IS. No warranties.
