1948 Chevy Truck - 5 windows

Chevrolet Other Pickups 1948 Description

Amazing Chevy 5-window rat rod with authentic patina. No fake or "faux" finish on it, this is a survivor on the outside with modern drive train underneath. Unlike a lot of these kind of trucks, this was built for a daily driver where everything actually works. The only thing left is to adjust the doors and put in an interior. Or just leave it. No leaks, just serviced brakes. She is safe and sane. Well, she needs a horn and seat belts.Doors close and latch, windows roll up and down with good rubber, including the wings.

I know local mechanic who can slip in an LS1 engine, if you want. I can put the two of you in touch, help with logistics, you guys can settle on price/timing/etc. There are a couple of online shops that will ship you a chipped and turn-key for not a lot of money.
