Other Makes 2 Door (1955)
for sale

Price: US $1,000.00

Description:

Up for auction is a very cool, very solid, “55” Travelall. Original 6 cylinder, 3 speed on the column.
Truly found on a farm in Pennsylvania, its amazing the condition it is in. Tremendous patina on what I think is original blue paint, but very hard to tell.
Runs and drives really good. Starts instantly, clutch is very good, brakes are very very good, goes down the road quite nicely and I would say it’s a 45 mph truck.
I disconnected the speedo meter (noisy) and all gauges work well except fuel which is very sporadic. All lights work (so cool); wipers do not. Heater works really well.
All glass is original and after 3 weeks and a lot of WD 40, I freed up the slide windows. As you can see from the photos, the front seat is worn and the tape on the seat will be included in the sale. Hub caps are terrible and should be replaced. What’s amazing is the headliner being fully intact and outside of very slight sagging , is in great shape. It does have some rust on the inner fender liners in the rear, very minimal but it is there and it is through in some spots. I can send pics of that if needed. Steering is a little tough but it could be tire pressure; I haven’t gotten that far. Running boards are in great shape zero rust and so is the firewall all the way down through the A pillars. Visor is in perfect shape and very cool. The off side mirror in the picture is incorrect for the truck and just there so I can see what I’m doing backing in.
Actually a great little piece, presents very well. If I were going to keep it I would rebuild the carb, add 4 shocks, and change the tires to fatty whites. Other than that she’s go to go.
I will set a reasonable reserve and please don’t ask. It is for sale locally so I may remove the listing early.
Payment is deposit 48 hours/ balance 5 days.
I can store for a little while and can deliver up to 100 miles for a fee.
Thanks for looking and call me anytime, I love to bullshit about old trucks,
