Description

What a beauty. This Chevy Pickup has been family owned for over 40 years. A history of a farm feed out wagon to many many years in storage until I got it road worthy in 2015.

Mostly original however to the astute you'll see a few not so original bits.

Guess if someone is looking for a restoration project or maybe a promotional vehicle with registration and a new wof this could be for you.

Included are many parts as shown in the pictures from carburetors,starter motors, gearboxes, etc,etc to a complete engines (not in pictures)

I have genuinely no idea what it's worth therefore have listed with a price and the market will determine it's value. So please make an offer if you're interested all offers will be seriously considered.

As offers have already started please don't be offended if I don't accept instantly as I will wait until I see how it goes for awhile. I can't seem to contact the people making the offers only got accept or decline options???

  • Hi Nice truck Best to let auction run as you may have a higher offer yet to come from some one who hasn’t seen the auction yet Cheers rwi (583) • 3:50 pm, Sat, 27 Jun Thanks for your message. Yes I'm obliged to keep the auction running for the people who have bid. I'm ignoring the ones telling me to withdraw and start again. Cheers gary138 (300) • Saturday, 27 June 2026
  • Seems as if you have made a mistake on the auction. You should have gone for the offers option. That way you can decline or accept bids martyssnut (683) • 12:39 pm, Wed, 1 Jul The only mistake I've made was the long auction time. It's obvious with the amount of interest only a fool would accept an offer rather than letting the auction run. Cheers. gary138 (300) • Wednesday, 1 July 2026
  • does it have the wind out front window or has it be sealed . thanks moatoa59 (81) • 6:00 pm, Wed, 1 Jul Hi ,thanks for your question. 1937 models don't have a wind out windscreen. The vent between the bonnet and bottom of screen has been roughly sealed up. Cheers. gary138 (300) • Wednesday, 1 July 2026
  • Would this drive long distances without an issue? Not looking for a promise just wondering if id be able to drive it to Timaru or will need to bring a car trailer? fraser64 (50) • 8:27 pm, Thu, 2 Jul She'd be a long day, no reason why it wouldn't however I think trailer would be a better option. Remember there's plenty of spares including a spare engine it would be a big load. gary138 (300) • Thursday, 2 July 2026
  • Hi , can you please remove my bid , I don’t know what I was thinking I’m a ford guy! Thanks. curliesue (120) • 10:26 am, Sun, 5 Jul Haahaa, a Chevy would look great amongst your Fords. I can't remove your bid but I won't hold you to it. Cheers. gary138 (300) • Sunday, 5 July 2026
