1957 Chevrolet Dump Truck 6400 Dually

1957 Chevrolet Dump Truck 6400 Dually 

This is truly on of the most unique and interesting vehicles we have had the opportunity to offer on Ebay. This 1957 Chevy is a 2 ton Dump Staker fully restored to original condition. The truck was used as a city fire truck in a very small town outside of Bakersfield for over 40 years. The previous owner took possession in 02 then had a complete frame-off restoration done. The truck had original miles at 35,000.

The vehicle is like brand new throughout and looks amazing. The previous owner invested $65,000 and nearly exhausted himself restoring this vehicle, it required several years of hard work with an immense attention to detail. Duplicating this vehicle in this caliber would be almost impossible.

The cab was removed from the frame and finished in a bright red, the chassis was restored and painted, the bed was constructed to original with modern Hydraulics for safe use of the dump feature. Rails on the sides were hand crafted with high quality expensive Appeton Wood. The interior seats are 100% ORIGINAL . Dash and gauges have been restored and calibrated. All new wiring was ran front to back and everything works properly. The side logo's and front emblem are original and un-restored. The Truck is in better then new condition.

The engine and drivetrain are original to the vehicle, a 261ci Jawbreaker inline 6 coupled to a 4 speed manual shift with a 2 speed rear end. The vehicle runs and rives excellent around town and on the freeway at speeds of 60-70mph. Equipped with Hydro-vac brakes it stops on a dime. The Truck rides on a set of 22.5-inch wheels with Toyo Hypara-radial tires with Dually axle in the rear. The vehicle has less then 230 miles since restoration.

Previous owner has shown this vehicle on several occasions and the attention he received was tremendous. The vehicle has been considered for Best of Show and wins numerous class awards. It is very seldom you will see a 1957 Chevy 6400 Dump in pristine condition.
