There it is a 1939 Chevrolet Custom Truck and Trailer combo that is
now for sale in our Houston Showroom. This truck is what we can
call custom, and does not have any hard time winning trophies at
any car show you choose to take it to. This truck is powered by a
strong 313 CID Inline 6 which is plenty of power for this light
weight beauty. The transmission the is paired up with the engine is
a Ford C4 with a "Lokar" shifter. Both the engine and transmission
were rebuilt by Owens Race Engine in Pearland. At a quick glance,
it would be hard to determine this is a Chevrolet being it has a
grill from a 1937 Hudson Terraplane, headlights from a '30 Hudson,
and taillights from a '59 Cadillac Ambulance. Each time you look at
this truck you will find something new or interesting, which was
the intention of the truck as it climbed to the top of the
competition at several previous car shows. The Carb intake is a
Zenith TIN40 from a '71 Porsche 911-T with Velocity Stacks. The
4-barrel intake is a Ford 300 Offenhauser with a Holly 570 "Street
Avenger" mounted on top. The parts on this truck is like a time
capsule ranging from parts dated back to the early 1900's all the
way up to the 90's. What truly makes this truck an American classic
is the WWII pieces that have been installed such as the brass hood
and trunk handles from vintage WWII naval electric conduit clips,
Zoomie heat shield from WWII zero recoil artillery shell casings,
and the overhead switches from a B-29 Bomber. As you work your way
down on this piece of history you see the truck and trailer both
sit on OEM wheels from a '41 Ford. The tires are in great shape and
made by Diamond Back with Michelin rear cases. The trailer that
comes with this truck is a '36 Mullins which were only made in
'36-'37 in turn making this deal just that much sweeter. The
interior is a tan color and in great condition, you will notice
everything from the floors, carpet, and headliner are all in great
shape. The interior keeps the flow going with the customization's
it has as well such as the vintage faucets used for the dash
switches. To see all the HD pictures and video please go to
