1942 Chevy half ton short bed pickup truck For Sale

Update 5th Nov- I have just given her a service, new spark plugs and a carb rebuild and she runs like a top.
Super rare super cool super desirable 1942 Chevy half ton short bed truck.
In original green but has been repainted sometime in its life
95% original and unmodified
Original 216 cubic inch Chevy straight 6 motor with 3 speed manual floor change transmission
Still has original foot starter.
Cab glass is all good, but it's just flat laminated so simple and cheap to replace.
Excellent un-butchered interior
She has a few dings and dents but is generally a very straight truck
High desert truck so more or less rust free, some rust in the bottom of the door skins and a small patch driver side floor but no big deal.
The chassis is lovely and solid with no rust or welding done.
Front screen cranks out as it should.
Truck starts, runs drives and stops very well indeed and has been tagged in the US recently
The truck has had a lot of work done to it including a 12 volt conversion, all electrics work, lights, indicators, gauges , fuel gauge and even the wipers.
Now what makes this truck so cool and so rare is being a 42 it was the last of the civilian produced trucks mid WW2, no trucks were built for the civilian market from 42 on until late 45 after the end of the war!
This truck is 77 years old and will always require some mechanical tinkering and fettling.

Please be assured that all parts for these trucks are readily available both in the UK and in the US so keeping her on the road is easy and inexpensive.

The truck has had all duties paid and is now UK road registered so it's all done.
The truck is MOT and tax exempt as over 40 years old and registered as "historic".

I can also arrange delivery of this truck

Finally serious interested parties please call Pete on the details below, please no lowballers , tyre kickers, please be realistic with your expectations. This is still a 77 year old truck, as such it will drive like one and not like your 2013 BMW.
I WILL NOT CONSIDER OFFERS UNLESS YOU HAVE VIEWED THE TRUCK.

Sourcing , procuring and shipping these vehicles is a time consuming and expensive task. Everything has increased in price due to the pounds weakness since the brexit vote. The values of these vehicles are only going one way. They are getting harder and harder to find unmodified.
