Located 20 minutes west of Boston.HEAD TURNING, RARE, 1940 Chev pick up.Bought in Florida Keys 12 years ago as a piece of junk... my mechanic/autobody guy & check my book brought this truck "back to life"!I don't drive it much and getting divorced soon and want an appreciative truck owner to have this verses her/her scummy lawyer!Would cost thousands to duplicate this truck! Automatic, "crated" 350 motor (installed 10 years ago after the original engine died - 1,100 miles ago) - oil changed ever 3K milesHave had the truck up to 80MPHOdometer shows 15,200 miles (they didn't have 6 digit odometers back then!)On a '86 Blazer chasisPower steeringPower BrakesAM/FM/CD radio hidden in glove box - 2 speakers under dash - power antenna hidden in truck bedWood in bed installed 1.5 yrs agoCrank open windshieldFloor startWorking directionalsWiper on drivers sideBrighter headlampsSun visorGray tweed cloth bench seatEmergency brake "holds" wellNo seat beltsONLY KNOWN DEFECTS: The truck does sit alot... therefore, AT TIMES.....1) There is a tiny leak of transmission fluid. I have replaced the gasket 4x, my machanic says "live with it, it's an old truck".2) Now & then there is a little light blue smoke when I start it. I do add Marvel Mystery Oil to each tank.3) Horn in center of steering wheel is not operatable. There is a working (air)horn on the steering column.4) Gas gauge is unreliable.Sorry, no trades...
