So I should start as to how this all came about. my father was surfing e-bay looking for a pick-up for my younger brother, a Chevy of course, and a listing came up for a 1945 stack body, mistakenly he said "hey Dave check this out" the auction was only a day old but the price was under $500. We agreed that it was going to skyrocket and be UN affordable. The last day of the auction I looked, and the price was still low, under a grand! I call my dad and told him if it stayed under 2k I was buying it...I sat down, and put in my max bid, $2200.00 just to be safe, I WON! $1600.00! I was thrilled, my father was shocked. He knew that this was another big project that he would need to help me with. The truck was owned by a school district for its entire life. The truck has an original 27,000 miles on it, it was barn kept until 2 years ago when the district tore down the barn and it was put outside. All in all, it is in great shape! I’ll be sure to update this as I go through the process of stripping it to the frame and completely refinishing it from the ground up. I’m very excited to start this project!
