1951 Truck Hudson, MA **SOLD**

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4700.

Glenn spotted this truck.

"Truck's features:
- Super body. It spent most of its life in west Texas. After it was moved to Massachuesetts, it was never driven in the winter. No known Bondo. Very little rust - see the photos.
- GM 350 automatic transmission plus a Saturn overdrive and a 2 speed transfer case, giving 12 gears forward and 4 in reverse. Transfer case rebuilt with Timken bearings and special intermediate gear using tapered roller bearing instead of stock needle bearings (lasts much longer).
- Front steering rebuilt, including steering box. New front springs & shocks.
- Power brakes. Front auto-adjusting brakes newly rebuilt. Electric wiper motor.
- Holley Projection electronic fuel injection (EFI).
- Includes the missing sheet metal "bed skirts" under the bed (are in primer paint).
- The truck is the relatively rare early 50's model with the split windshield, the small back window, and the "W" embossed on the tailgate.
- Clean title (Massachusetts)

Major Yet-to-do's:
-The truck runs, but the EFI needs turning - I do not have the time (or much experience) to do this. (Worst case, you can replace the EFI with a common Chevy 2 or 4 barrel carburetor and sell the EFI for parts). A Holley EFI manual comes with the truck.
- Tires have less than 2,000 miles on them (the 2 spares have never been used), but are old. They are "E" rated so they are very strong plus show no cracking - they will be useful until the truck is ready to drive, but then you will need to replace them.
- Some sheet metal on the floor of the cab needs to be installed to cover the transmission. A sheet metal pattern and some sheet metal are included. Also includes a rubber floor mat to cover the sheet metal.
- The alternator pooped out last week. It's a 1-wire Chevy unit and should be easy to replace.
- The truck is being sold as a 2-wheel drive vehicle. The front drive shaft (included) has an interference point with the 350 transmission and is not installed. Your options will be: 1) Keep the truck as it is - it can run fine in 2WD and do your really want to beat up this nice truck by going 4 wheeling? 2) Install a different automatic; or 3) Retrofit a standard stick-shift transmission (like some really low geared Chevy truck 4 speed).

For this price, you can afford to deal with these issues and still be financially ahead - check out the Willys truck prices on ebay. Truck must be bought and picked up by 11/19/2018. Sorry, but no personal checks or credit card payments."
