The previous owner discovered it by accident…he went to look at this truck only to take measurements for another 49 Chevy 5 Window that he was still Building. It was on Jack stands in the owners Driveway Covered up with a large Tarp. This was truly a rare find in its original condition since there were no rust spots showing anywhere. He kicked it around for a long time before asking if the truck could be purchased. The seller wanted to know that it was going to be fixed up properly, he assured him he would do right by it. As anyone can see doing right by it is a huge under statement for how this truck came out. Show it or do the cruise in's this one's sure to please!!! 4 miles since build completed
