Vehicle Detail
FOR SALE 1948 Chevy 3800 1-ton TruckThis truck has a RARE 9 ft. box I built this truck using 2 trucks. The frame and hydraulic dump box came from a 4500 series grain truck which I added the 1-ton suspension to. The cab and box came from a 3800 1-ton truck. I recessed the hydraulic cylinder and hoist into the frame so it looks like a standard pick-up, but has a dump box. Complete brake system has been replaced (see pics) including 4-wheel cylinders, master cylinder, all steel lines and 3 rubber hoses. The brake shoes were over 50% so i reused them. The engine I purchased form a person that had it overhauled and decided to go with a V-8. I was told it only has a few thousand miles on it, and the way it runs, I believe it! The windshield and rear glass are new with new weatherstrips. Both side windows are original and roll up and down with ease. New exhaust pipe and muffler (see pics) I did not repair/replace any body panels because I wanted to keep it original (just buffed the paint). It will need cab floor panels and driver door panel repaired or drive like it is. Also, will need wiring harness replaced. I left it original also. I would recommend replacing it, so the lights, charging system etc will function correctly. Also has new fuel pump, rebuilt carb. and complete tune-up. I flushed the original fuel tank and installed inline filter (may need to be changed again). Box floor is treated deck boards, which has not been varnished or stained. I have a Wisconsin title for the 4500 series truck which I received when I bought the chasis. Since these trucks were identified by the engine serial number the title does not match up due to the engine and cab being replaced. If this concerns you..please don't bid. I have 100% feedback and plan on keeping it that way. Truck is located 15miles West of Cedar Falls/ Waterloo Ia. (Stout 50673). Delivery available for $1.50/loaded mile. Less than 10 POS feedback contact me BEFORE bidding. $500 non-refundable deposit due immediately and remainder in CASH due within 7 days of auctions end. Any ?s please call (319) 239-5238 Thanks and Happy Bidding,JIM
