Vehicle Detail
BEING SOLD WITH NO RESERVE or BEST OFFER before the auction ends must contact me to make arrangements OR HIGH BID WINS NO GAMES THIS TRUCK WILL SELL This is a cool five window cab first series 1955 Chevrolet truck. It is a custom build. This truck was purchased off a collector car lot in Fla. for $23K in 2011. I took this in on a trade late last fall. I drove it several times only when it was nice and then stored it for the winter. Very fun to drive. The pictures were taken several days ago so what you see is exactly what you are buying. It is a driver and seems to run very well. After 6 months in storage it started right up! I had big plans for it and it kills me to part with it. Really have too many other unfinished projects and in reality, need the space. It is a custom build on a Monte Carlo chassis so it has late model frame,suspension,brakes etc. Most of these trucks are restored with a factory frame from the cab back with a late model subframe welded on. No weak links here. It has a Chevrolet V8 engine and dig that custom air cleaner Wow! Auto trans floor shift, tilt wheel and more. Signals and lights work as they should. An older build not perfect and showing minor wear and tear but overall a nice truck. As with everything to be 100% mint will need a restoration. Has a West Va. title and is ready to go. The inside of the bed has been lined with bed coating. Lots of custom diamond plate including a 3 door cover. Known issues. Trans has a tiny leak and looks to just be the pan gasket. No leaks last fall and noticed a small spot when pulling it out of the garage. Shows full on the dipstick. The fuel guage is intermittent and may just be the sending unit ground. Not sure as I haven't spent a lot of time with it. Not perfect but still a nice truck. NEED TO SELL YOUR CAR FIRST?
