1962 RAT ROD CHEVROLET PICK UP TRUCK 62 CHEVY

1962 Chevrolet Other Pickups

62 Rat Rod Chevy Truck with 64 Grille. 305 Engine. This truck is a C20 Long bed with 5 lug front end and an 8 lug rear, wanted to swap out rear end next. Bought this truck from Florida about 5 years ago. Think it was a California truck at one point. Kept in garage here in Pennsylvania. Put a bunch of new parts on it about 3 years ago, only about 3500 miles since. New Parts: Tilt steering column, aluminum radiator, complete wire harness (front to rear), chrome all the way around (missing passenger side headlight trim in pics, but i have it), gas tank sending unit (origninal tank behind seat), Dolphin gauge cluster, dual exhaust and mufflers, old aire air conditioning and heater, rear back up lights. also new: Drop spindles (i think 3 1/2 inch) and 5 inch drop coils from (i think Classic Performance Products) with dual reservoir power disc brakes in front along with shock absorbers. Dropping it and adding brakes cost about $5,000 alone. Clutch takes a few minutes to pump up if sitting for a month.
Only 3 gauges work correctly in the new cluster, the guy who installed it didn't wire it correctly.
Engine runs pretty good for an old engine although i'm sure it could use some tuning up, new plugs and wires added when wire harness was added. Starts in winter cold even thought it hasn't run in a month, good battery. Junk batter tray added by p.o. and they cut into inner fender to fit it. I think it has the original 4 on the floor transmission with the granny gear and original rear. Floor parking brake that works. Original bench seat with slightly worn fitted seat cover. I bought a vinyl floor for it but I bought the wrong one, doesn't fit right so you will need a new floor. Some patching on drivers side floor. Some patching on outer rocker panels, needs work on inner. Good enough for this look but if you wanted to fix it up, need replacing. No firewall padding. Air conditioning control panel was put into old control panel opening and attached by some weld tacks and it damage the dash around old opening in dash a little bit. Air conditioning is installed except for hoses, hose hardware and belt are included.
Body is pretty solid and straight except for: rusted through behind front wheels, puttied up and ok for this look, would need new patch panels if you were fixing this up, some rust but not through on bottom corners of doors, puttied up, good enough for this look, dent in front drivers side hood, puttied up, football size dent in drivers side rear bed panel behind wheel, puttied up.
Underneath of truck is solid and good condition with surface rust. Need new tires, dry rotting and low tread. This truck is in drivable condition but to pass inspection in Pennsylvania, the exhaust needs to go all the way out the back end, it stops right before rear axle. we had to remove tail pipe when we dropped it. The exhaust will also need to be worked on in front, when we dropped front end, exhaust is a little low. don't think the exhaust guy did a very good job at that point.
Wood bed is rotted out but metal strips are there in usable condition. No radio. passenger side speaker mounted, other speaker included. Has new shoulder seat belts and middle seat belt although passenger door seat belt already has corrosion on it and middle seat belt has corrosion and will not work, will try wd40. Chrome door sill plates are new too but rusting already. cheap crap. Outside chrome door handles are new and same keyed with working glove box however driver side door handle mechanism needs some work, inside door handle will not work, need to open window and use outside handle to open. New window felt.
New parts also included: Windshield and rear window rubber, new in packaging but at least 5 years old. Door rubber for both sides, again, new in packaging but at least 5 years old.
I am in the middle of a faux patina paint job like they did on the Trucks! tv show with a 49 chevy. It has been hand panted several layers with a hand brush, next up was to wet sand it to finish the look. There is no real natural patina on the body and I am not trying to portray it that way here on e-bay. Some people like this look, some don't. I was not finished with the look I was going for. I would call this a distressed looking red oxide primer look.
It is a fun drive around town and gets tons of looks, a bunch of thumbs up and offers to buy it. I don't want to sell it but i need to right now.
I have tried my hardest to list everything good and bad about the truck and will probably remember something I forgot tomorrow, so check back for updates. Will also add pics of interior, bed and underneath. Message me with questions.
