The Bad.

This is still a project but its a GREAT start. I tow it to events and loads of people come to chat and buy my product. I am very reluctant to sell the truck because I love it but we just signed a lease to open a brick and mortar so I need the cash. You can TEXT ME Mike 512 917 5460. I can deliver it anyplace in the US for about $1.5

This rare vehicle was an actual bread truck for the famous Parisian Bread Company, which produced San Francisco's signature sourdough bread for over 100 years until closing its doors in 2005.

It was built by the American Body Company of Lynnwood, and they only made 148 of this body style. This is one of very few remaining, and it is well preserved for its age.

It's a '57 Chevy (second series) chassis. It is titled as a 1957 Chevrolet.

The body is fiberglass with plywood backing, and the roof is steel. It is very straight, with no dents and just a few minor dings.
