March 9, 201214 yr Cheers or Jeers: 27,000 Mile 1955 Chevrolet Napco 4x4 Link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/RARE-1955-1st-Series-Chevy-5-Window-NAPCO-4x4-27k-orig-mi-NO-RESERVE-Video-/270926253410?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item3f14768d62 VERY RARE ORIGINAL FIRST SERIES, 5 Window, NAPCO 4x4. ONLY A FEW REMAINING. ONE OF THE RAREST AMERICAN TRUCKS FROM THE 1950's. Museum Piece. The few of these trucks that have traded at auction houses like Barrett Jackson have traded anywhere from $35K to over $80K!!!! Own this collector piece for a fraction of the retail value! This truck was modified using the NAPCO (Northwestern Auto Parts Co.) 4 Wheel Drive Power-Pak 4x4 system at the factory. The truck was ordered by and delivered to PG&E in the Pacific Northwest. Since then, it has had only a few owners and has spent a majority of its time in Arizona. It is important to note that while this truck is rare, rare, rare, it is even more special because it has 27k original miles, documented! The miles are noted as Actual on the title! Original motor, transmission, 4WD components, you name it...it's there and working! The truck underwent a thorough FRAME-OFF restoration in 2007 (200 miles ago) and nothing was overlooked. The truck had few enough miles that most of the original parts were re-furbished and re-used. The truck is as restored to original as it can be. The truck has been stored in a climate controlled warehouse since the restoration (hence the dusty / dirty undercarriage....sorry!). Truck shines up with the best of them out there for there has been minimal use and no exposure to any of the weather elements since restoration. Only imperfections worth noting are: i). A chip near the front of the hood when it comes down; ii). A chip in the rear bed rail, and iii). An unpainted Air Cleaner. See detailed pictures below of these items. This is nothing short of a collection piece for the most discerning collector of notable American trucks. Blink and you may never see one of these trucks again in your lifetime. Everything works as it should and there is no rust on this truck!
March 10, 201214 yr If 'nothing was overlooked', why is the steering wheel covered in a vinyl wrap? 2nd Series '55 would be worth more, I'll bet. Total cheers.
March 10, 201214 yr 2nd Series '55 would be worth more, I'll bet. I'm sure that's true, but this is much more unique.
