For sale this beautiful 56 Chevy 3/4 ton pickup. The truck has been fully restored and is in fully operable condition. The original 235 straight six runs like a top and provides plenty of power to easily run 60 down the highway. The manual 4 speed transmission shifts exactly as it should. The clutch and brakes operate exactly as they
should as well. All the running gear and drive train is original to the truck, and is in excellent condition. Even the original steering box only allows only an "hour" of play, if you imagine the steering wheel to be the face of a clock. A chrome tilt steering column was added to the truck, and completely rewired the entire truck with a fused wiring harness. All signals and lights work correctly.
The seats have been updated to black and grey cloth upholstered captain style seats. They are very comfortable and in excellent condition.
The chrome rims are brand new and the tires are deep in rubber all the way around. The wood bed is natural oil finish, and the sides of
the box are lined with a smooth satin black durable industrial coating, not simply painted. The tailgate has hidden latches and the chains
have been deleted so they don't beat up the paint. The front bumper is brand new chrome, and the rear bumper was custom built
and doubles as a compressed air tank. A heavy duty trailer hitch receiver is mounted beneath the bumper, complete with a six prong
trailer light plug. The restoration is several years old, but has held up extremely well. The steps into the cab show a bit of paint
wear, and there is a small paint chip above the right headlight that has been retouched. This is a gorgeous truck that you would not feel bad
about enjoying on the road.
