Description for Chevrolet Other Pickups 1938

Very Solid, Wonderful and RARE. Crazy straight.
Honest completely original 1938 Chevy 1/2 ton.
I found this truck 15 miles from my home, in the back of a garage. A member of our local car club was showing me a REO and a Hudson, This is what caught my eye! I bought it because it was so original, the running boards were perfect and the rear fenders were almost perfect. Normally these are banged up...All original incredibly straight steel!
The front fenders are have a few bruises but are better than any I'd seen in years.
It is missing the front bumper, the cab has a dent in the roof on the passenger side, the grill needs replaced or repaired and it needs glass. ALL Parts are available through Jim Carters or On-line.
I have a good windshield glass that I will pack carefully that will come with the truck
*The windshield cranks in and out like it should, the cowl vent operates up and down.
Floors are rust free and Solid. Doors open and shut tight easily.
216.5 Original engine. Original because the vin# is right on the block that matches the title.Does not run, I have not even tried to get it running. Original W-1 Carter carburetor.
Original 3 speed transmission.Synchronized in 2nd and 3rd gear.
I just sold a running, braking, driving 1937 Chevy for $16,000 on eBay in 24 hours. Right now with my work schedule I just don't have the time to get this one going. A Rare Chevy 1/2 ton find.37-41 Chevy 1/2 tons in this condition are getting very, very tough to locate.
Clear Missouri Title. No, I do not need help selling this very cool truck...frankly, it will sell itself.
TERMS: Cash or Wire transfer only. Transport easily arranged even though it's not running. Many open transports winch collector cars and trucks every day. Please note my 100% feedback so that you can bid with confidence. Serious buyers may contact me at 816-729-8513 with questions.
Someone is going to get a dandy piece of history.

I reserve the right to market this truck locally and end the auction at any time.
I have located a straight, original front bumper for this truck. Matches the Patina of the rest of the truck. I would purchase it and include it with the sale IF the truck exceeds the reserve. (No I will not disclose the reserve, that would be unfair to all bidders). Jim

Reserve has been met. I have had several calls and emails from confused bidders about this.Now that the reserve is off it will sell to the highest bidder. Please, make sure you get your wife's approval, and have the cash to buy...BEFORE you bid. If you need to see the truck to honor your bid, come see it BEFORE you bid. There are some awful nice folks wanting this wonderful, straight piece of history. Cash or wire transfer. No cashiers checks, No personal checks. Obviously lots of serious interest.Thank you, Jim
