1954 Chevrolet Pick-Up Truck, 3600 Model, 3/4 Ton, 5 Window, jet-black interior/exterior, automatic transmission, fully restored, ALL ORIGINAL and winner of several trophies for best in show. All numbers match (title, engine block, frame and transmission); title in hand, cash only please. I will consider helping to arrange for shipping within the States, but the truck must be first paid in full, in cash!
No expense has been spared restoring this truck to its full glory and with all original luxury-options available in that era. The total cost for the restoration was over $29,000. The truck's "average-retail" value is $14,800 and its "high-retail" value is $36,600, so pricing it at $27,500 doesn't even cover the restoration expenses, but regrettably I need to sell it :(
In addition to the truck I am including:
1 Storage bin full of brand new parts and accessories worth over $1,700
2 Small boxes with hard-to-find old pats. Estimated resale value: $900
2 Oversize, custom fitted, breathable, dust covers, both worth over $600
If the ad is running, the truck is still available!
