For helping keep this great
old truck web site
on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 100 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 100 | I have been driving past this truck for 4 years. Literally two blocks from my house. I seen they were cleaning out the yard it was sitting in and scrapping everything. I stopped and asked about it and it was so cheap I couldn't pass it up. Lucky for me our scrap yard doesn't really like trucks without titles. The plans are to use any parts off of it I need for my 49 3800 dump truck and then build a rat rod (can I say that here) with the cab. I already had the hood off (it wasn't bolted on anyway) and in the garage when I snapped the pics. I was trying to remove the hood ornament. Its a 53 6500 two ton or says the vin buster. GVW of 16,000 lbs. I can't get the pics to work tonight but it has a green cab with a nasty, ugly wood flatbed. edit: http://s46.photobucket.com/albums/f129/Ibendcars/Green%2053%20Chevy/trying to get pics to work

Just remember it is often the little things that people need that get forgotten to take off parted trucks. Tad

Which doesn't bother me at all. I don't intend to put the truck back on the road as it is. The cab probably will be driven again someday but it will be 5" off of the ground in a rat rod.
