Short Wide Bed Trucks are something I’m always looking for even if they’re projects that haven’t run in some time. When I first saw this truck I knew it had potential to be a really kick ass 4X4! Now this would be the perfect project for Aaron and the Monkeys to transform here in the shop. but unfortunately with our filming schedule it would be quite some time before we would get to it so I’m offering it you just the way I found it (I didn’t even wash it) so you can enjoy building this truck exactly the way you want to! Please note this is a project truck that doesn’t run or drive. it will need to be towed from my shop and due to our filming schedule we cannot perform any of the restoration on this truck (SOLD AS/IS WHERE IS). The body is fairly straight and solid with a few dents and minor rust present that should be easily repairable (see all pics). Underside pics reveal a fairly solid chassis with superficial rust present on most components and fairly solid floors as well. Most driveline components appear to be present with some components removed presumably for repair or replacement (fuel tank. front drive shaft etc…) and some additional parts of unknown condition. The interior. well. there it is! Bucket seats. dumb & dumber dash cover etc… (please see all pics). Suitable for Advertising and Promotional use. Museum quality restoration or as an everyday driver project. this truck is offered just as we found it and will need complete servicing prior to attempting to start it for the first time after all these years. The winning bidder may have the option of taking delivery here at the shop or we'll help with shipping logistics. Clear Texas Title in hand!

Hoodies etc. on our Official "Gas Monkey Garage" Merchandise eBay store: About Us[zipedit] “I’ve been obsessed with cars since… I was born. ”Richard Rawlings had a car by age fourteen. and had gone through nearly twenty cars by the time he was out of high school. His father worked three jobs his whole life—two to make ends meet for the family. and one to buy toys. Neither a mechanic nor a fabricator. his father took pride in his car collection. Needless to say. this stayed with Richard. Rawlings was always working. and always chasing pipe dreams. By twenty-one. he’d been a cop. a fireman. and a medic. But he wanted more. After a rough stint of sleeping on his sister’s couch. he got his act together and entered the world of trading sales. Here he solidified his business savvy. and went on to build an advertising and printing firm from the ground up. The company grew to become a “juggernaut” in the Dallas area. A mere four years later. the company sold. and with that money Gas Monkey Garage was born. Aaron Kaufman worked at a shop Rawlings frequented. and loved the stuff Rawlings brought in for him. Kaufman always went above and beyond for him. When Gas Monkey opened. Rawlings called him up and asked if he wanted to work for him. The premise was simple: Rawlings wanted the fastest. most expensive. most badass hot rod shop to be found. with apparel and a show on Discovery to boot. Kaufman thought he was crazy. but signed on anyway. Eight years later. the shop is all that and more. They owe their success to a strict business model. They don’t buy parts—only whole models without too much rust. Owing to his business background. Rawlings has a handle on the market. and knows the price he ought to pay. In ninety days or less. the job will be done. whether they start with a decent model or a carcass. Then it’s onto the next job without hesitation. If a finished car sits too long. Rawlings will sell it at a loss. He’s interested in a killer operation. not a stockpile. Their roles within the shop are clear. Rawlings is first and foremost an entrepreneur. He wants to sell a style. push a brand. and make sure Gas Monkey Garage never stops growing. Kaufman runs the shop. armed with his mastery of mechanics. electrics. and fabrication. The dynamic is vital. the common ground being their mutual love of classic cars. Rawlings has always been an old soul when it comes to cars. and his style has brought in a steady flow of clientele who trust his no-B. S. methods. “Anyone can go out and buy a Ferrari. ” Rawlings’ dream car? “A 1932 Ford Roadster—the holy grail of hot rods. ”See our other listings On May-07-15 at 13:30:50 PDT. seller added the following information: Several keen eyed eBayers have noticed that this truck has a Big Block V8. not the 350 that the VIN# indicates it was built with. I didn't list the engine size as I can't be sure whether it has been bored or stroked. The VIN is decoded by eBay and auto fills some of the info based on that. Sorry for any confusion! |
