It has a dead-on hot rod stance that just sits right!

UNFINISHED RESTORATION / KNOWN ISSUES

-*Paint is in really good condition overall and looks amazing however there are some minor scratches on various parts of the body (mostly from people leaning on the truck looking at it at shows…unfortunately).

-**The AC is installed and connected to the engine although it has not been charged for use. Control wire still needs to be connected to compressor.

-There is a crack in the body across the front lip of the hood. This is not super noticeable when the hood is closed.

-The original 1955 in-dash instrument cluster including speedometer does not function.

-The new dash mounted gauges (4 of them) by Mooneyes do not function with this LS3 engine.

-The radio that is installed is a replica and it is not connected nor are there any speakers installed in the truck. Speak wire has been run to behind the bench seat.

-The interior overhead light is installed although not connected.

-This truck intentionally does not have any windshield wipers. A cool “hand grenade” mounted on dash is in place of windshield wipers handle. We get a million comments on the hand grenade alone!

-Door and body panel gaps aren’t perfect as they were in 1955.

-The side vents windows and back windows are original. The vent windows have bubbles in the glass as was common in 1955. The rear glass has some minor scratches only noticeable when up close.

I have described this truck as accurate and fairly as possible. Given the nature of custom hot rods trucks it is SOLD AS-IS WHERE IS. This is an amazingly beautiful truck that turns heads everywhere it goes. I am happy to answer additional questions or provide additional pictures. Please contact me through Ebay.
