1955 Chevy 3100 Series 2 Pickup Truck - Amazing Natural Patina

If you want to turn heads. get conversations every time you stop for gas. receive countless thumbs ups. and have people take selfies with your truck then this is the truck for you. A local photographer even used the truck for fall pictures last year. 1955 Chevy pickup. drive train is all original. 235 straight six. three speed on the column. Great driver while you decide if you want to swap in a V8. bag it. all up to you. Truck is great mechanically. I'd drive it anywhere. The body is how I bought it with the exception of the custom artwork on the doors which was hand painted by a local artist. This isn't paint that looks like patina. this is the real thing. Yes it's rusty. and that's precisely why the truck is so appealing. All gauges work with the exception of the odometer. I have run nothing but 100% gas (no ethanol) in it since the carb was rebuilt. This is a 60 year old truck and drives like such. which is what I love about old vehicles. If I wanted to drive a new truck. I'd buy a new truck. There's something priceless about driving it the way it came from the factory. but that's just me. The truck still has the floor starter pedal. manual steering. and manual brakes. Not sure if it's the original wood in the bed but it's definitely a possibility. The wood looks amazing with the truck's patina. The wood in the bed is wet from where I washed the truck but it has a great grey patina. Within the past 6-8 months I have replaced (and should have all receipts from):New brakes - Hoses. lines. master cylinder. rear wheel cylinders. Shoes and front wheel cylinders were fine. New style tie rod ends and drag link. New vent windows. I've replaced the driver's side. the passenger's side is still in the box along with new window felt for that side. New door sealsNew HEI distributor. plugs. and wires. Rebuilt carburetor. New gas tank sending unitNew fuel pump (mechanical)4 new BFG 2 7/8" wide whitewalls from Coker (235-75x15)New steelies have been powder coated. New baby moon center capsSeat belts! 3 new lap belts. New headliner and rubber seal. New glass pack mufflerThere is no radio and the heater isn't wired up. I've never tried to make the heater work but it all appears to be there. The speakers in the kick panels were there when I bought the truck. Turn signals work. brake lights work. headlights work. The bullet holes were in the driver's glass when I bought the truck and adds to it's character. so I left it alone. Horn doesn't work. I believe that's about it. Please let me know if you have any questions. Selling because I have four other old vehicles that need some love and this is the only vehicle I own that the whole family can't fit in. Thanks for your bid and good luck!On Mar-04-15 at 06:59:11 PST. seller added the following information:Also. the parking brake does not work. I replaced the front cable (which was missing entirely when I bought the truck). but the rear cable is frozen and needs to be replaced if you want a parking brake. It's not been an issue for me. but want to be fair and disclose anything I can. On Mar-05-15 at 05:22:43 PST. seller added the following information:This morning. I lowered the reserve amount by $2000. I am confident that the truck will hit this new reserve. so please bid accordingly.
