Description
This 1955 Chevy started out as a 4 door station wagon. At some point in the 60s or 70s it was shortened to remove the rear two doors, making a shorted 2 door Handyman Wagon. The car was completely gone over in 2012-2013 with many new parts. The car is not perfect and not a ‘show’ car by any means. It is more of a hot rod / rat rod style. The 383 engine runs strong without any issues.
The car has a current PA state inspection sticker (Expires Sept 2018). The windshield wiper system and heater box / blower fan assembly are currently not installed, however they will go with the car. I also have misc trim that is not installed but goes with the car.
For questions or to see the car, Please call Will at 717-632-7833 (No Texts as this is a landline). Messages may be delayed. Clear PA Title. Will not ship the car. Pick-up in person with cash only.
