Wa Hooo ~ Southern Dew Tennessee Moon Shine Truck For your consideration: I have for sale a unique and fun little truck! It’s a Tennessee Hill Billy, Moonshine truck. It is very nice quality and has lots of the good stuff to make it drive, stop and run better. The paint is great and the truck is rock solid. The paint is loud, it’s a lime green, the MoPar color of sublime green from the Muscle Cars in the last 60s. The art work looks better in person than my pictures, its hand painted and nice. The truck is done mechanically to the Street Rod style, this means made to drive.The engine is a strong Chevrolet 350, the transmission a Turbo 350 automatic, Mustang 2 front end with rack-n-pinion, 9 inch Ford rear-end, power brakes (disc front) and more. The interior is a nice tweed cloth with no wear, the wheels are Old School smoothies and the chrome is nice. This truck would be great for just plain old fun, great to bring attention to you business if you park it out front, great to put your advertisement on the side boards. “better than a bill board”. MILEAGE: 2919 reading and I was told since restoration, I can not document the mileage. This year truck is exempt from a mileage statement and everything has been rebuilt of replaced. VIN: 118614 TITLE: Clear Tennessee title in hand IS THERE ANY RUST PROBLEMS? No rust bubbles in the paint, no cracks in the paint, no rusted holes on the underside. IS THERE ANY ACCIDENT DAMAGE? None that I can find. WHY AM I SELLING THIS CAR? When I find a nice car at a fair price I buy it and make a few dollars. PAINT: Very nice paint with no dents and dings. The color is bright lime green (MoPar sublime green from late 60s Muscle Cars). The artwork is painted on and very nice. ART-WORK: On the doors are a painting of a Hill-Billy scene in the Tennessee hills and says WaHoooo Southen Dew! On the side boards it reads Tennessee Express & Bottling Works. On the tail gate it has a Hilly-Billy scene and the words from a Tom T Hall song Old Trucks..OL Dogs… Children & water melon wine… CHROME: New or very nice condition. TRUCK BED: All diamond plate with a tool box built for the battery and fuel cell, it also has some storage room. EMBLEMS AND BEZELS: Nice. PANEL FIT: Pretty nice! HOW DO THE DOORS and HOOD OPEN: Good, the rubber weather stripping is a little tight on the doors so you have to close a little hard, the hood has a little trick, but does fine. INTEROR: No wear and clean cloth tweed. GLASS: The windshield is new, back glass new, right side window new, left door window is cracked (it needs replaced), the left vent window has a small crack and need replaced, the vent window lock is missing. I can fix this, but its not in the price. I WEATHER STRIPING/ RUBBER: Good. ENGINE: Engine is a nice running Chevrolet 350 with no leaks, no blue smoke and no rattles. It has a Edelbrock carburetor and lots of detailing. EXHAUST SYSTEM: Headers with dual Flow Masters, the system has the deep/loud Muscle car sound. TRANSMISSION: Turbo 350 that shifts good. BRAKES: Brakes are disc in front and power assisted. SOUND SYSTEM: Nice JVC system with remote. STEERING: Good steering, it is power rack-n-pinion and a Mustang 2 front-end clip. A clip is where you buy a after market made for the truck and replace the old one. WHEELS AND TIRES: New looking chrome smoothies. TIRES: Good radials with wide white porta-walls. LIGHTS: I think they all work! WIPER WORK and is electric! PARKING BRAKE DOES NOT WORK! GUAGES: Temp works, volt works, oil works, fuel is not working, but I can fix it for parts only. PAPERWORK: I know what to do! I am a Tennessee licensed car dealer and have sold cars all over the US and exported many.

I do check my emails several times a day. cell 423-506-8987 email: dreamcar@live.com WHERE THE CAR IS LOCATED: The car is here at my home in Athens, Tennessee. Athens is in east Tennessee, we are 50 miles below Knoxville. Look at a Road Atlas and follow interstate 75 south from Knoxville. I live one mile and one turn from the interstate exit. My zip code is 37303. The closest large airport is Knoxville. Athens does have a good small airport, but has no commercial flights. I WILL ONLY PICK YOU UP AT THE AIR PORT UNLESS THE CAR IS PAID FOR IN FULL, I HAVE MADE TOO MANY WILD GOOSE CHASES! RENTAL CARS ARE AVAILABLE AT THE AIRPORT! WHO YOU ARE BUYING FROM: My name is Ron Watson and I live in the small town of Athens, Tennessee “Athens is called the friendly city”. I am 63 years old and work with my son Keith who is now 38. I am now retired and living my dream restoring, selling and improving classic cars. I was an auto mechanics instructor at Tennessee Technology Center here in Athens for many years. I am also a veteran of the US Army; I served as a Chinook helicopter mechanic, crew chief and instructor in the late 60s. LIFE IS GOOD IN THE GREEN HILLS OF EAST TENNESSEE! US TRANSPORT: “No problem”, I can recommend a very large company, McNutt Auto Transport Service 800-755-2324. “open carrier only” US OR EXPORT: Classic Car Transport, LLC: This is a very good company that will handle any type of transport in the US or overseas with the white glove treatment. Call Steve at 913-749-0948 Email stevens@classiccartransport.com MY AREA CODE FOR TRANSPORT: The area code for Athens, Tennessee is 37303. I live 1 mile off a major interstate (I-75), so transport is usually very fast. PAYMENT: I require a $500 deposit for a Buy Now or to hold the car. Option 1: Pay the old school way face to face. Option 2: Pay by check, I will wait till the check clears, I have had a fake one. Option 3: The safest is to let our banks handle it, my bank is a member of the US Federal Reserve, this is wire transfer. Option 4: Pay Pal is good, but it cost a lot. It cost me around 3%, so you will have to add 3% to the price. SHIPPING COST: West coast: About $1,000 East and Central US: About $1.00 a mile. Australia: About $2,000 from the west coast a $1,000 to get it there=$3,000. Europe: a least $1,200 from east coast ports = $650 to get it there=$1,850. INSPECTIONS: Please come look and be happy. All inspection have to be done before the end of the listing. I listed this car as I see it as a 64 year old car restorer, please come and judge it for your self. WARRANTY: Come inspect, judge and drive the car all you want to because I do not offer a warranty on classic cars. TRADES: No trades, its to hard and my truck will sell. BOTTOM LINE: I am asking $18,500 and will let people bargain me down to $16,500. That’s the game and it’s a real bargain for this truck, I’m a car restorer and it would cost you $25,000 up to get one to this point. Don’t waste our time calling or offering less, I will be taking the truck to the big shows this fall and relisting it until it sells. It fun and I know a bargain, I also know this truck is not for everybody, but is for some people. It’s a fun truck, it’s a good truck! Thank You,Ron Watson cell: 423-506-8987 email: dreamcar@live.com
