1949 Chevrolet Other Pickups

1949 Short wheel base. Flat Bed Duals. Stove bolt 6 engine. 4 Speed Manual.Fresh rear springs.Spare engine (needs rebuilt). Spare Tranny. Few spare small parts too. Good Oklahoma title in hand and it was even insured and tagged until this last year. Drove it 60 miles home 3 years ago and drove it around town a few times then parked it to try and rewire it. I'm no electritian and I gave up.Ran like a champ, but needs a new floor starter switch, battery and some wirnig work to run again. I had all of the lights working before the starter switch went bad.Needs wiper arms replaced.Body rust is pretty bad. Need new floor boards. Fuel tank is still in good shape and clean. Been sitting a year and a half so it may need the carb cleaned.Needs a headliner and door skins on the inside. Still has the orignial mechanical shocks on the front.Its a cool old machine, but it needs some love. The guy i bought it from was going to Rat rod it and couldnt make himself do it because it was too "original". I just had to have it. Moving now so she wont come with me. Please take this doll and keep her going. Clear coat on the paint is peeling. It appears to have always been red and maybe the red is even original and someone shot clear over it.Tires have tubes in them. Tread is decent on all. Exhaust is split and newer with chrome tipsPrevious ownertold me that the truck had been a firetruck its entire life until the guy before him bought it and made it a flatbed. That might explain the short wheelbase. Mileage....Who knows for sure!If you need more pics, let me know. In no way would this thing pass a state inspection....Just making sure that is out there.
Winning bidder needs to come get her in Miami Oklahoma. She will need to be trailered or towed, all your responsibility.Needs to be gone within 7 days of the auction ending.
