1949 GMC / Chevy 5 window tow truck - 302 straight six!

1949 GMC 300 5 window tow truck barn find. This truck needs to be restored, but its a good starting point. The truck has a very desirable and rare GMC 302 straight six engine. These engines were very popular in hot rodding. The motor is currently stuck from sitting, but I believe it would easily come unstuck if soaked with oil. The family of the estate I purchased the truck from said it ran a few years ago and was being used around the yard. The truck does have some rust, but nothing major, floor pans, bottom edges of fenders etc. overall its a good cab for a hot rod to to restore. The 5 window cabs are hard to come by these days and sought after. The hood on the truck has zero rust, the frame is very clean and solid, no rust. Please look at all the pictures and watch the video below before bidding. I had planned to use the cab from this truck for a cool roll back project, but I'm trying to finish another car I'm building first and have to let some of the other projects go to be able to do so.

Nothing personal, it’s just that eBay has a habit of attracting people who bid on cars and then fall of the face of the earth. If you’re a serious bidder with a low score you shouldn’t have a problem giving me a quick call first so I can verify you’re normal. Out of state buyers, I will provide storage to winning bidder for a reasonable amount of time whilearranging shipping. Thanks for checking out my auction!
