==1955-59 1/2 ton PANEL...6-lug?
Okay - I found an unreal (and I hate the overused !&^*% term but...)
"barn find". Barn?...well, in a garage for 20+ years...1955 2nd 1/2 TON PANEL. ((Now for you hot rod guys, tune out on this part...you won't appreciate it. You'll just be doing the math on how much these parts'd be worth in scrap $, to put toward the purchase of a Heidt's front end or something!)) ...it's an honest, original 1955 2nd that's a V8 truck, looks like a 4-speed. ~the 265 c.i. is still there, complete including the air cleaner, generator...fender V8 emblems...all of it. Been sitting for years, but it turns. If I get it, it's staying in there...not 350 here. dash is perfetm and o are the floors. Whole bodylooks great. If I get it, that's a whole 'nother thread on here... ~Truck is on rotten, old tires (even though it was inside). ~If we go get it, I wanted to take some GM early wheels with, to put on and roll it...have options for sale here right now locally: 1948-54 6-lug, and 1960-66 6-lug. ~Q=I just need to know - aren't the 1955-59 1/2 tons the SIX-LUG? ~Q=Same 6-lug spacing as 1948-54 1/2 TON TRUCKS? I can take some of those with me if we pick it up... ~Q=Is it the same as 1960-66 6-lug spacing/PATTERN? ~Q=Any difference in center hole diam.? ~Q=Here is one just for the authentic detail guys...I looked in the original GM engineering features manual and the GM 1955 truck data book... ~Q=I SEE BOTH 6-lug, 15" and a 6-lug, 16" wheel in 1955-56 on 1/2 TONS...???? |
