This is a 1940 Chevy 1/2 ton pickup project truck with some 1946 parts. Everything is original and steel, no reproductions. This is a very solid project truck and has been disassembled. It is mostly complete and 98% rust free. The only rust is a small bit in the bottom front panel of the box not visible under the wood and a small amount in the head panel above the windshield in the cab that is not into the exterior sheet metal. There is a replacement panel included if you choose to repair, or just cover with header panel. Everything else is either rust free or has been repaired. Major body parts are here except lower grill and tailgate. The frame is mostly complete except the steering sector and rear springs. The cab forward is from a 1940 chevy and has the correct ID plates. The frame, box, running boards and extra cab parts are from a 1946 chevy 1/2 ton and include clear title and proper id tags. The cab is in very good condition and one of the better you will find. The only rust as mentioned is in the header panel and is covered by the interior panel. The beltline, cowls, back panel, cab corners, rear window, sheet metal above front window and floor are all rust free. There is a dent in the roof but it is an easy fix. All door hardware, panels, handles, trim moldings seat etc. are here. The rear window frame is there and not broken. All glass will need replaced. There is no front glass. The doors have new lower door skins have installed. The welds need ground down and the finished. They are original to this cab and fit as they should. Also comes with an extra cowl, vent, A-pillar and front roof section from the 46 cab. The front grill surround is rust free and straight. The lower 'chin' and apron have been restored and are ready for paint. The headlights have been restored. Chrome retainers are original and in good shape. The upper grill has some surface rust but no dents or cracks. The hard to find hood retainer is there and in great shape. The hood is the best I have seen for an untouched original. Straight and not a ding in it. The sides are good. Inner fenders have been straightened and repaired and are ready for paint. The running boards are in excellent shape. All body work is done and they are as straight as you will find. A small amount of filler was used to smooth up some pits, but it is not thick and is over solid metal. 2 sets of original steel front fenders, all rust free. They have some cracks and will need some repair but are about as good as you find these days. 1 set of rear steel fenders that have had a lot of work done, but need some more. The both sides have been extensively patched. The pass side is ready for finish work. The drive side need a little more work before it is ready to go. The box sides are rust free. New corner strips have been welded in. Stake pockets are good. New side tubes have been welded on so they are perfectly straight. Will need some finishing and minor dolly work prior to final finish. Rear cross member is good. Front panel is OK. It needs a small area repaired on the bottom under where the wood sits but is usable as is. Frame is original and unmolested. There is no rust through, cracks or welds. Its ready for whatever you want to do with it. Also includes most (but not all) original suspension parts, front axle and rearend if you want to use them. this is a solid project that includes title and paperwork It is a great start to a streetrod project. I have described this as well as possible, but may have missed something. This is currently stored inside. Pickup and shipping arrangements are the responsibility of buyer. It all needs to be picked up in 8 weeks unless other arrangements are made prior to the auction end. If you don't want all of it, such as original suspension parts, etc. they can be left. If you don't plan to pay please do not bid. If you have 0 feedback email me prior to the end of auction or your bid will be cancelled. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Thanks.
