'58 Chevy, NO RESERVE auction, highest bidder gets it!
This is truly a wonderful old truck. It is a great cross between something that is an iconic classic, and something that is still very usable today. It is all original, hasn't been rat rodded, etc. original 261 engine (not 216) Has rear tires that are nearly new (a few years old but very little wear) and good front tires. It features an all steel dump box, built at significant expense 3 years ago, with hydraulic PTO driven cylinders that work excellent.
This viking is exceptionally straight overall, with just a little rust in cab corners and quarters, as shown in pics. Floors and everything else are rock solid. In my opinion, one of the best things this truck has, is a patina that takes 60 years to produce, it would require very little body work for a new paint job, but I think that would actually take away from the original farm look it has now.
Mechanically, this truck seems to be in very good condition. Please keep in mind that it has been a year or two since it was used on a regular basis. So it will need the typical things for an old vehicle that has sat for a while. Here is a quick rundown. Truck starts and runs great, maybe a touch cold blooded, as it likes to run with a little choke. The gauges work, and it carries good oil pressure. Has a 2 speed diff, that seems to work fine. Has power brakes. Previous owner told me he rebuilt rear wheel cylinders about 3 years ago, and brakes worked fine, now you have to add fluid occasionally and pump them up or bleed them, I'm guessing it needs a master cylinder. Transmission shifts through all 4 gears just fine. Most of the lights work, a couple don't. Basically, you will probably need to spend a day or two sorting out a few items before you make this your parade truck, or landscaping wagon.
I do have a clear Kansas title with this truck. I have also sold a few old trucks here with no disappointments, please check my feedback. This truck will haul on a 18' or 20' trailer, as long as it is not a light duty trailer. Also - I am fine with you taking your time to find the right shipper or find the time to come get it yourself, even if it takes a couple of months or so, as long as it is paid for. I will help wherever I can. My name is Cort - 620-786-5172 - please call or text with any questions - Thank you and good luck!
