1955.1 Chevy 6500

From Scott :

Here she is. My newest big Bolt! This is a 1955.1 Chevy 6500 series with an additional two foot frame stretch. It has a 16 foot Omaha Standard cattle bed.

This vintage truck is a true barn find. My buddy Bill Alderson got it as a package deal when he bought a Caterpillar dozer from an estate. This old truck sat in a barn for several years from the looks of the inside of the gas tank.

Within a half hour of taking delivery of her, I had her running and driving under its own power, without brakes of course.

This is a very solid truck with most everything in working order. I even found cattle yard receipts in the glove box showing what she was built to do. Since I don't haul cattle, I'm thinking of making a rollback car and truck hauler out of it.

Here's a bigger picture of her from the driver's side.

Now, off to order a new gas tank!
