This auction is for a 1949 bread truck. This truck is rich in history. it comes from Denver Co through a company called "Happy Home Delivery Service" which delivered bread and baked goods directly to your home. Looking at the sides of the truck, ou can still see the original advertising. This particular truck, as taken out of service and parked in 1966. The original plate is stillon the rear of the truck. Now for the good stuff.

When we got the truck, t had the hood removed and no motor/trans. We do NOT have a hood! The hood hinges are there and I will be more than happy to get one for you if needed. We installed a 283 out of a 1958 chevy Biscayne. This motor is super clean and runs VERY well. There is a pic included of the inside of the motor when we changed the intake.

We are missing the cap for the r/r at the moment but are looking for another one. The caps and rings are not in perfect shape either. Theyare dented and scratched. The front fenders, hough original to the truck, re dented and scratched and have rust in the typical areas where they bolt to the running board, here the bumper goes through at the frame and in front of the wheel just above it. The rest of the box itself, s aluminum. And the cowlappears rust free. The doors do work but need attention. The skin of the doors is steel and the frame itself is plywood. Hinges are steel. The seat needs upholstery. We do have the seat cushions in the truck. But they are in bad shape from all of the years left sitting. This has a CLEAN CO title in hand. Any questions just ask please.
