1956 Chevy 6500 1.5-Ton Napco 4 x 4

Thought I would send photos of another project truck. This one is a 1956 1.5-ton factory Napco 4 x 4.

The guy who I got it from believed it to be a former power company truck. It has the 6 cylinder motor. Those are 22.5" rims.

It needs some work but it will be fun to get on the road again.

Matt now has eleven Bolts -- a 1955 Second Series Chevy 1/2-Ton Short Box; a 1955 3100 Second Series Stepside; a 1955 3100 4 x 4; a 1955 4400; a 1955 6500; a 1956 Chevy 3100 Shortbox; a 1956 4400 1.5-Ton Napco; a 1956 6500; a 1957 3100 Shortbox; a 1957 Chevy 6500 Dump Truck; a 1957 Chevy 3800 1-ton and "lots of part trucks"

Plus Matt is 6'7" and wants to "fit comfortably in the cab." Matt says "They each have their own personalities. Even the worn out '55 6500 just keeps plugging along. I guess that's why I enjoy collecting them. I like a truck with a little history, and I know most of these trucks historys. It would be hard to call any my favorite" .~~ Editor
