NO RESERVE YOU BID YOU BUY! http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=ST7vwBuODdo http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=RaBkVNf1FVg Up for auction is a very well built custom 1939 Chevrolet Rat Rod. It is very reliable and runs great. I take my 3 year old son out in it and we have a great time going to car shows and showing up rides that cost tens of thousands more. Here is the run down. the motor It has a clean great running 307 v8 Chevrolet motor. I don't know how many miles are on the motor but the oil is clean and does not smoke or leak. the motor starts and runs great hot or cold. Tons of power for a very lite truck. Holly carb and a Weiand intake. fined valve covers and a classic louvered air filter give it a great look. the headers have baffles in them but don't let that fool you it is loud. It is kept cool with a very nice aluminum champion radiator. the transmission It is a turbo 350 Chevrolet transmission. I just serviced it and it is clean and shifts great. It is hooked up to a B&M ratcheting shifter that works perfect. It takes a little to get used to but after you do it is the only way to go on a vintage ride. the frame It is all stock in the front with the rear half grafted from a chevy s10 truck. drum brakes front and rear. manual brakes on a under floor reverse mounted master cylinder. aftermarket proporting valve The master cylinder leaks a tiny bit but stops the more you drive it. the steering column is stock so is the steering box. Everything is tight and rides good for a 70 year old technology. This truck was frame off rebuilt, the frame is clean and painted black. The bed is nice with new wood. The custom gas tank is professionally custom pinstriped. it does not have a gauge but It has a stick that works just fine to dip and check! tires are like new 14 inch bias ply real wide white walls. no fake crap here. and no flat spots. the body This rat rod sits in rudy red primer. I guarantee that it HAS rust and dents or your money back! That being said it is really solid. If you wanted to doll it up with a nice paint job it would be easy to restore if needed. The grill is a fiberglass 32 ford I do believe. The spade could be easily removed if you so desire there is a grill behind it. The seat is leather and folds down for storage. the battery sits in a under floor compartment. The wiring is all new and in perfect working order. turn signals horn and headlights all work. this is a safe truck. it has a lot of room even though it has about 6 inches of channel on the body. I would recommend it to anybody any size. lots of room especially for an old truck. the cowl vent works in front. the windshield is a custom glue in and does not flip out. The electric wiper works great.. All doors and handles work well. I am waiting on a driver side handle in the mail but it will be on the truck when it is picked up or shipped. I also have the window cranks on order and will be on when shipped. all windows roll up and down great on new felt seals. The title has a brand that reads "rebuilt reconstructed" due to the fact that it has a Oregon assigned VIN number and it was built using a mix of parts. It is very insurable with Hagerty insurance, and is easy to register. The bottom line is that this is a turn key reliable well crafted attention getting truck. I welcome anyone that wants to bid on it to call me and I can give all details. I have more pics to post and I have some videos on youtube. I have a great track record on eBay and make every attempt to represent the vehicle for what it is. No glamour shots here or weird angles that hide things.
