I'm with Nate, they're sweet rides. I've given away 3 of them, a 46 3/4T on which we did the work and was the first one that I used a seperate vacuum pump on for the wipers. This is not a mis-print, it had a right side wiper. A 46 1/2 ton to our vet who loves old trucks, never would charge for working on our pets, and who needed something to work on to preserve his sanity after having both knees replaced and finally a 52 to my nephew to haul his show Harley in. All chevy's of course.
After my G... If I was to do any other thing, a panel would be it! Rob (shotwheels) has a beauty in his shop waiting for life to be breathed into it. My dream as a youngster was to paint murals on the sides of vans. Give me a panel and look out! I'll have the runniest, orangey peelyist mural around! But it would be on a Chevy, so who'd care~ Even I couldn't screw up one of those!
Found one on ebay yesterday. The paint doesn't do much for me but ...... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Chev...019QQitemZ290257553897QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW
You can't keep 'em all! Dad and I had a few panels, my favorite was a '46 panel w' artillery wheels. I've still got the rusted out remnants of a '49.
That has got to be the worst paint "scheme" I have ever seen. Bet it cost a fortune. E-bay is a big world but I would imagine the pool of bidders who would be interested in it as is would be small.
Panels I love em! not too many over here unfortunately, COE's are the dogs too! in fact my favourite one is in fact a F**d sorry but its true. As for that paint old saying, you can buy anything in life........except taste
US $5,303.00 Reserve not met I just checked this morning on the price. I wouldn't buy that panel. I already have an old truck that needs a paint job. I couldn't afford to buy that panel and then have to repaint it. That titty pink woulod just have to go.
