1946 CHEVY 1/2 TON SHORT BED This is a chance to own a solid, and almost complete, "Art Deco" '46 Chevy pickup. I just purchased this truck and as luck would have it three days later I stumbled across one that was already finished, as much as I'd like to have both I don't have the space or extra funds for both so I'm going to let this go to finance the other. The truck has great patina for someone wanting a rat rod, which was my intentions, or it would be a good candidate for restoration. The pictures pretty much tell the condition, there is a small amount of rust in the bottom of the doors as usual on these trucks and a couple other small places but overall it's very solid. The fenders are all usable with just a little work, the cab is solid over the windshield, the cab corners and rocker panels are nice, the bedsides are surprisingly straight. The front bed panel and the rear cross piece are both rough. The tailgate is a little rough but I think it's useable, there is no bed floor so the bed is not solid on the frame. The previous owner removed the front clip and disassembled a several pieces of the sheet metal around the radiator area, etc. Therefore the hood is not attached and the front clip isn't bolted solid, all of the pieces that were removed are in the floor of the truck. The only thing I see that is missing is the actual floorboard piece that bolts in which is available aftermarket and the drivers door panel as well as both door glasses. He also removed the components from inside the drivers door but they appear to be all there. The front bumper is in the bed but it has a bend in the center, the braces are there and in good condition. It has the original 216 engine and 4 speed transmission, I haven't tried to turn the engine over but I'd guess that it's stuck. There is NO TITLE for the truck, it should not be a problem obtaining one from a title service but that will be the buyers responsibility. These are the trucks that everyone is wanting, they are becoming very hard to find, especially in this condition. Please ask any questions BEFORE bidding. The truck is located in Mansfield Missouri and can be inspected at any time if you wish. Shipping is the sole responsibility of the buyer and the truck will have to be picked up at my location. Upon completion of the auction a $500 down payment is due within 24 hours by PayPal and the balance is due within seven calendar days by cash or certified check only.
