Vehicle Detail
Hi and thank you for looking at my auction. This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION!! This is a 1953 GMC 1/2 ton short bed truck. This truck was meticulously restored from the frame up. Other than the electrical system being upgraded to 12v the truck has remained amazingly original. The suspension was all restored or replaced with all newbrakeslinesSpringsSteering gearShocksDifferentialTires The original engine and four speed manual transmission were completely rebuilt and all accessories were replaced such asGeneratorWater PumpStarterClutchBeltRadiatorAll HosesComplete Exhaust SystemThis rust free body was also meticulously restored. The color is the original Flame Red. No expense was spared with the process. This is truly a "SHOW" quality paint job that has been color sanded and polished to a mirror like finish. You will not find a straighter, smoother, or shinier paint job on any vehicle at any price. The process included Stripping everything down to bare metal via media blastingAll bare metal was acid etched and epoxy primedAll body work was achieved with minimal filler by a true old school craftsmanAll paint is of the highest quality urethane base coat clear coat.Hand Lettered Tail Gate. All Fasteners replacedAll seals and weatherstripping replacedAll New glassAll new wood in bed finished in original oil finish (beautiful)The interior is all new in the original vinyl. This was masterfully done and looks amazing. The gauges were restored mechanically and are not cheap Chinese replacements. All chrome and bright work was replayed or plashed to show finish. I know I am forgetting things, but basically everything in this truck is new or restored. Absolutely no disappointments here. The truck is truly breathtaking and deserves a really great home. I would have no hesitation to jump in it and drive across country right now. The pictures do not do this truck justice. Clean California Title In Hand I can help arrange shipping to anywhere in the country at buyers expense. I prefer a wire transfer, but you can also FedEx me a cashiers check. If you have any questions feel free to email me. Good Luck to all bidders. The winning bidder is going to end up with amazing truck!
