Barn find old Dodge Navy truck from a base in Northern California. Truck is complete less a couple items and is mostly unchanged and has only minor ham-handed damage.
Shows 45,500 original miles.
Has a 1950s Dodge engine in it. This was common, since the old ones let go quite a bit.
Will need a complete restoration. Was said to be running when parked. Not registered since 1956, included two original Ca. 1956 plates. Last driven about 20 years ago, was stored inside. Used on a ranch.
It has been a California truck all it's life. That is a good thing, for restoration.
This is an excellent winter project, most everything is here, and inexpensive rebuilding parts are available from many online suppliers.
The rare stuff--the seats, spare tire gear, engine crank, bed, tailgate, reflectors, etc. are all here.
Please look closely at the pictures, they tell the story.
The truck is not rotted at all and has only minor surface rust--no rust through, no thin metal. In other words, a perfect restoration candidate.
Missing--original coil, carb (has replacement carb), battery gone, glovebox door, glass, spare tire.
Cut off--the low skirting around the cab floor at the doors. This was commonly done.
The disclaimer: This truck, while an excellent restoration project and in great shape for what it is, shows the use and wear of it's 73 years of life. You can expect to see all sorts of wear, damage, surface rust and dents. This will need serious work. Please only bid on this truck if you understand that it is a fine old relic that will need extensive work, and that it comes without guarantees. Please come take a look or ask for more pictures. Just don't ask two hours before the auction closes.
I will not be taking returns on it. I am also not going to hide anything I know about it either, so ask questions before you bid.
The truck is located near Oakland, California, near San Francisco.
Sold with bill of sale and original pink from 1956.
Shipping is available from many online outfits. For example, I payed $1650 to have a truck shipped all the way across the states from the east coast. If you're closer, it will be much less.
I will meet the trucker and help load if you choose professional shipping. I can also deliver up to 500 miles for a fee.
Bid with confidence. This is a great old truck, a fairly easy restoration, and a perfect candidate for the job.
I will accept several form of payment. Bank transfer is best, cash in person is great also. Personal checks will take some time to clear, as will cashier checks and money orders. Best to expect two weeks for these. The truck will not be released until we are way, way sure the money order or check was not printed in someones garage.
25% is due within 48 hours of the auction close, the remainder in three days.
Please do not bid unless you have money-in-hand. I will not accept promises about the next paycheck.
The truck can stay here after full payment for up to 30 days, after that it needs to go.
Thanks for your interest.

eBay Find of the Day: Viper Defender from '90s TV show
Fri, 24 May 2013As car lovers, it's always hard to find a good television show with decent cars, but what the 1990s show Viper lacked in acting, scripting and plot, it more than made up for with cool cars. For starters, the lead car was a Dodge Viper RT/10, but, on screen, it was able to morph into its "Defender" mode making it an armored coupe with a full arsenal of weapons.
Fortunately, you don't have to be a fan of the bad show to love its lead car, and if you really want one, a Defender is up for auction right now on eBay. According to the listing, this car is the real deal - not a clone - and it comes with a V8 engine (not sure what happened to the V10?) and plenty of swag and memorbilia. No word on its actual asking price, but with a day left and 42 bids already, the reserve has not been met at $133,400. The listing does add that this same car was listed at Mecum back in 2010, but did not get sold, even with a bid of $270,000.
Cruise Woodward Avenue with Autoblog's Dodge Challenger Hellcat
Thu, Aug 20 2015While Autoblog was consumed by coverage of the increasingly important Monterey Car Week last weekend, there was another big even going on. The Woodward Dream Cruise is significantly lighter in terms of news, but there's no denying that it's a far bigger, and far more egalitarian than what the wine-and-cheese crowd experience on the links at Pebble Beach. The Dream Cruise crams tens of thousands of cars and over a million spectators along a four-lane ribbon of asphalt between Ferndale and Pontiac, MI. What's remarkable aren't these numbers, though, so much as the distances they travel. Owners and admirers come from far and wide, across the United States and in some cases across the globe, to take in the spectacle. This year, local radio and television coverage featured fans that traveled from Japan, Australia, and Europe, just to take in the cruise. Of course, we realize that not everyone can make the pilgrimage to Woodward Avenue. With that fact in mind, we decided to bring a bit of the Dream Cruise to Autoblog with a time-lapse video of the cruise route. You can experience the good (a Lamborghini Gallardo, Chevrolet Chevelle, and Oldsmobile Cutlass 442), the bad (the traffic jams), and the ugly (no, your 2003 Ford Focus does not qualify as a classic, get the hell out of the cruiser lanes). So join us, as we turn off 8 Mile Road behind the wheel of our 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and run north, through Ferndale, Pleasant Ridge, Royal Oak, Huntington Woods, Berkley, Bloomfield Township, and Bloomfield Hills, before ending up on Wide Track Drive in Pontiac.
