Rare 1955 Chevrolet 1/2 ton first series short bed pick-up.
I’m listing this truck for a friend; he drives this truck everyday as his daily driver. 1955 first series are very rare, they have a 1 piece windshield from the factory, they have open drive-line rear axle, and a unique bed with flat top rails and raised/embossed bed sides.
This truck is a nice driver with a modern 292 inline Chevrolet 6cyl, an S-10 5 speed transmission, and the original rear-end. The Truck has a “Sids” (http://www.droppedaxles.com)
4” dropped front axle with new Kingpins, new tapered tie-rod ends, a new tie rod and drag-link, new “Timken” tapered front wheel bearings, new rear brakes including drums, new dual reservoir master cylinder, 4” lowering blocks in the rear, and new exhaust. The truck also has a new 12 volt heater fan motor and 12volt electric 2spd wipers, all the lights work except the dome light (it’s a new dome light just not hooked up). All the gauges work except the fuel gauge, and the truck also has an all new 12 volt wiring harness. The heater core has not been hooked up as of yet. The truck has 225/70/16 tires on 16” steel wheels; it has an original rare blade rear bumper also. This truck has the indent in the L-rear fender for the spare but a non-spare tire L-fender is included with the truck.
The truck appears to have some old “bondo” in the cab corners and some rust in the L-front cab corner. The fenders and doors are very solid as is the bed. The driver side window needs installed and the passenger wing window is cracked. This truck is an un-restored nice truck with nice patina that can be driven daily as is or you could paint it and make it your own, but all the mechanicals on the truck are in great shape.
This truck is currently a daily driver and will cruise at 65-70 all day and gets around 19-20 miles per gallon.
The owner is only selling the truck because he has to replace his shop roof.
The reserve is 5,000.00 I think that is more than fair for a solid driver, which needs nothing to be enjoyed as is. Good luck and bid to own. The owner would like a cashier’s check or cash in person for the truck. The truck must be paid for before it is shipped
Good luck and thank you for looking at my item.
Please check my other auctions often as I’m cleaning out my shop with 25+ years of accumulation. I will also be selling more cars and project cars.
Due to the fact that this is a 50+ year old used truck and I can not control how it will be used by the new owner there is no warranty or returns. This truck is sold as-is. What I have listed and what you see on the truck in the pictures is what I have and what you get.
I will need a $500.00 non-refundable deposit within 48hrs of sale, and then balance must be paid in full within 10 days of end of auction. If not paid within 10 days the truck will be re-listed and deposit not returned. (I will work with you if there is a good excuse. I will not lower price though). I will not charge storage on the truck, if the truck is paid for it can be stored at my home for awhile (1 or 2 months, not a year) until shipping is arranged.
I will not arrange shipping for the truck that is up to you the buyer but I will work with you and your shipper in any way I can.

Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva
Thu, 07 Feb 2013Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.
GM is quietly slashing prices on base models
Fri, Jan 30 2015While General Motors' fourth quarter financial figures haven't yet been released, the automaker seems to be weathering a potentially rocky time well, even beating third-quarter projections last year. To keep the climb going, the company is launching new base trims for several popular models that make them cheaper than ever but with tight dealer margins. The new entry-level trims are the Chevrolet Cruze L, Equinox L, GMC Terrain SL and Buick LaCrosse 1SV. Buyers lose some content by picking them, but the prices are slashed. According to Cars Direct, the biggest savings are on the LaCrosse, where customers pay $31,065, plus $925 destination, $2,570 less than the previous base 1SB trim but must accept things like 17-inch wheels and no cargo net in the back. If you're wondering how Buick can remove only a little equipment but cut the price so much, it's because the company also slashed dealer margins. According to Cars Direct, the difference between the invoice and MSRP for the LaCrosse 1SV is only around $150, compared to around $1,350 before. The disparity is even greater for the Cruze with an $81 difference in the prices, compared to about $600 for the LS version. Showrooms are expected to keep very low stocks of these trims, though. "Dealers use such vehicles to get people in the door, but they do not generally want to do high volumes of these strippers. The margins are next to nothing; they don't make much money off these cars," said Ed Kim, Vice President of Industry Analysis for AutoPacific to Autoblog. Dealers are also expected to advertise that these new base trims undercut major competitors. For example, the Cruze L rings up for about $2,320 less than a Honda Civic LX, according to Cars Direct. One potential drawback for buyers is that these models might not be eligible for incentives. While the attractive prices might get customers into dealers, folks may not actually end up driving home with these entry-level models. Kim indicated base trims also make up a small portion of the sales mix. "Consumers aren't asking for stripped out vehicles, even at the low end of the marketplace," he said.
