Up for sale is a true barn find saved a few months ago from where it had been sitting for the last 35+ years. This is a ONE OWNER truck. I purchased it from the widow of the original owner who bought it new in Wichita ks on January 1st 1960. It is a numbers matching 283 3spd Custom Cab Short fleetside factory dealer installed air truck with 56k original miles. The truck was originally a factory black and white two tone truck although 40 years ago the owner decided it was time for a change and it was painted all black! The truck still looks phenomenal all cleaned up! This is an extremely solid all original truck! It does have some minor chips in the paint here and there but no exterior rust or dents. However it does have some minor rust on a couple of the cab braces and in the floors as shown in the pics. Mechanically this truck is sound i went through the entire brake system, cooling system, and fuel system. The truck has a brand new fuel tank, sending unit, fuel pump. Radiator was flushed and all cooling hoses and belts were also replaced. Everything stopping related is also new. It has a new master cylinder, all new rubber hoses, wheel cylinders, brake shoes and hardware. I also installed a new Clutch Slave cylinder and turn signal switch. A fresh oil change new plugs, wires, points, cap, rotor, coil and this truck runs and drives like a new 1960 pickup. Did I forgot to mention this thing has ICE COLD A/C! I had it serviced by a licensed tech and re charged with the correct r12! Everything on this truck is nice and tight the way it should be. Doors open and close like new! ALL of the guages, lights, wipers (i have the arms off because they need refill blades)even the radio work as they should! I have put 250 highway, and in town miles on it without a single problem! Before i drop this thing on the ground, change the wheels and tires and build it to my liking I wanted to list the truck as is, as close to original and give someone else the opportunity to do with it as they like. All this thing is missing is the correct stance and set of wheels to be in the high 20k range. Add air ride and surpass that. I uploaded as many pics as eBay would let me if you need anything else just ask! It is being sold as is with no warranty expressed or implied. A 2k non refundable deposit is required within 24 hours of the closing of the auction with the remaining balance due within 3 days. I will sell overseas!If you have any questions PLEASE PLEASE Ask them before you bid! Thanks and GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IF YOU HAVE LESS THAN A 10 POSITIVE FEEBACK RATING PLEASE CONTACT ME PRIOR TO BIDDING OR IT WILL BE CANCELED
