For auction is this 1959 chevrolet Viking 40 truck.  This is a 1 owner truck that has been kept in dry storage its entire life ! The truck has been out of service and stored in a closed machinery shed for many years so minor attention due to long term storage will be needed.

Vin number matches the title and and we have the original title issued in 1959 for this truck.

Vin number is 4B59K-128512

Truck has 2 speed rear end but cable on shifter lever is a little sticky and may need to be replaced due to age.

Mileage shows 89,959  but not sure if that is exact mileage. 

This truck is in really great condition for its age and many people have commented on how solid and clean this truck is.  Windshield is in great condition and 1 side door glass is cracked but all other glass looks good.  Dash looks excellent and original ignition works great and so does starter button. 

The engine was upgraded to a 292 chevy engine with low hours and it runs. Currently we have the engine running on a small tank with fresh gas and a new fuel filter and it fires right up and runs smooth. 

The factory gas tank will need to be flushed out and The rochester carburetor needs to be cleaned but motor runs great.

Transmission shifts into gears and truck rolls good.  Most of the Tires are in great condition and a few have minor wear. All of them hold air and are ready to use. 

Cab floors are very solid even under the floor mat because this truck was not exposed to the elements or snow or moisture so the cab is super solid. 

Front fenders do have some small rust holes on the lower corners because of some gravel/dirt  that got trapped in that area.

Cab has a few small dings and hood has a few small dings but nothing major.  1 LH hood hinge has a few worn teeth on hinge.

Doors open and close nice and snug just like they were new.  Bottoms of doors have a few tiny rust holes on the lower inside corners. 

Hoist moves up and down and grain box is in really great condition for the age.  Truck does not have working brakes at this time and will need some light brake servicing prior to using.  Pedal is not stuck but seals in master cylinder are probably in need of replacement due to sitting.

Mirror brackets need to be taken off and replaced with fresh mirrors. 

Really nice original 1 owner 1959 Chevy !
