Deluxe Cab (5 Window), Thriftmaster 235, Manual, Rare Museum Truck, Complete Res

Description

1951 Chevy 6100 Series (Deluxe Cab): When traveling around the US doing classic car deals, we sometimes stumble on really exceptional vehicles and immediately decide we have to own them! So was the case with this beautifully restored Chevy 6100 Series that was found for sale in an Indiana museum. After a little research and negotiating, “Big Red” was on it’s way to Texas. Further research upon arrival verified that this truck was once part of the late William “Bill”...Kirby collection. Bill was a well-known and respected classic truck restorer and collector who the Antique Truck community lost in 2013. Being a fellow classic truck enthusiast (especially Chevys!) I have a great appreciation of the craftsmanship that Bill put into this remarkable classic road tractor. Now is the opportunity for a new owner to take the reigns as caretaker of this truck and put it to work or use it to draw crowds at car shows. Some of the features and options on this truck include; Thriftmaster Inline 6 Cyl, Manual Transmission (4 Spd main & 3 Spd auxiliary), Dual Rear Wheels, 2 Spd Rear End, Air Brakes, 5th Wheel Hitch, Dual Polished Tanks, Running Boards, Chrome Grill, Painted Front Bumper, Roof Running Lights, Amber Turn Signal/Marker Lights, Chrome Spot Light, Factory Heater, Fire Extinguisher, Flare Kit, Grinnell Company Air Gauge, Fram Filter, Dual Horns, 20? Steel Wheels (5-lug front & 10-lug rear), and 9.00-20 Tires! Climb in, take a seat on the dark saddle leather bench, and enjoy the smooth ride of this unique vintage truck. Having seen only 2,400 miles since restoration, this is an exceptional classic Chevy truck that can be purchased for only $24,900!
