Super rare super cool super desirable 1952 Dodge B series Pilot House half ton pickup, with a patina created by 65 years of hot sun.<br />
Clear coat or ankor wax this truck to preserve the patina that people pay thousands to achieve in a paint shop!<br />
Hot rod, lower it, your choice or simply leave it alone! It is 95% rust free, the cab, floors, corners,chassis etc where they normally rust out are perfect. There are a couple of small areas in the front fenders where the inner stays meet the outer fender, and a couple of tiny holes in the door bottoms that have gone through but other than that it"s one of the most solid out there. No rust buckets here!!!!<br />

<br />
2. I can sell registered with a V5 document and number plate requiring improvements elsewhere for you to complete <br />
<br />
3. I can sell registered with V5, number plate and 100% road ready mechanically <br />

I expect this to sell quickly, if you"re interested please let me know sooner rather than later, obviously the more work I do to the truck the more money it will be! <br />
Finally serious interested parties please call Pete on 07980921341, please no lowballers , tyre kickers, please be realistic with your expectations. This is still a 65 year old truck, as such it will drive like one and not like your 2013 BMW. You can secure the car with a 500 deposit.<br />

Sourcing , procuring and shipping these vehicles is a time consuming and expensive task. Everything has increased in price due to the pounds weakness since the brexit vote. The values of these vehicles are only going one way<br />
