UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $6000
Some dents and dings on the passenger side and has some floor rust.
“This is a mechanically beautiful truck hiding inside a well patinated body. I’ve been driving it all over Petaluma this year, enough that it’s become well known and loved. I’d keep it forever, but our first baby will be here next month, and I have five cars that can’t hold a baby seat. D’oh!
Here’s a list of recent work:
– new radiator, thermostat, hoses, belts
– new cap, rotor, points, condenser
– new spark plug wires, plugs, coil, battery, battery cables
– rebuilt carb
– oil change, filter
– new fuel tank, all new lines & hoses, new fuel pump and fuel filter
– new or rebuilt all wheel cylinders and master, new lines and soft hoses
– axle seals (inner and outer, front and rear) replaced and packed wheel bearings, new swivel seals
– greased all chassis lube points
– rebuilt original Dualmatic locking hubs
– new rear main seal, timing cover seal, crankshaft seal, oil pan gasket, rocker cover gasket
– new muffler and rear portion of exhaust
– fresh tune-up including valve adjustment
– new NDT tires and tubes
– new full top bow set and Sunbrella canvas half cab
– 48″ farm jack mounted to front bumper
More good things:
– original chaff guard included (hard to find)
– starts easily, runs very well, shifts, steers, brakes etc. just as it should
– tow bar included for easier transport
– spare engine with all ancillaries comes with it; very handy for reference and emergency spares
– original black CA plates with current registration
Current needs:
– speedometer broke and was taken out to send to rebuilder; can rebuild or buy new one from Walck’s for $75 (maybe less on ebay)
– fuel tank sender needs replacement; registers ok between 1/4 and empty so at least you know when you need gas
– obviously needs body and paint if you want to win a show. Most people (including me) seem to get a bigger kick out of the patina that only 66 years of existence can produce
– rust through on passenger floor and bottom of tool box, pitted driver’s floor; otherwise just surface rust
– new owner may want new front seat canvas ($110 from New Life Canvas, screws in place)
– windshield vent levers are not installed (they are included with the truck)”
