In 1928 Chevrolet advertised their line of trucks as "All-Purpose
vehicles that were built to make quick work of any hauling job that
required a half-ton or one-ton capacity". Average wages in 1928
were around $1,400 annually, so the $710 list price for a Chevy
truck was a price that was achievable for someone who needed a
truck for their business, and had a good creditor!! This Capitol
1-ton is a fine example of what Chevy had to offer. It has the
"powerful" 4 cylinder engine and 4 speed manual transmission that
allows you to haul loads at highway speeds (around 45-50MPH). This
truck has undergone an extensive and very thorough restoration. Not
a single nut or bolt was left untouched. With it's beautiful
woodwork it is actually built better that Chevrolet made it from
the factory! All of the mechanical components have been rebuilt,
including the brakes and tires. Get in this one and go without
worry. The history on this truck leads you back to Iowa. It is a
super clean, straight, and rust free truck. It was not assembled
from a bunch of aftermarket parts. All of the parts on this truck
are original from 1928. Even the odometer, so the mileage is
correct at 27,353. Financing available through Collector Car
Lending for qualified buyers. Call or stop by today and check this
beauty out. All of our inventory can be seen at
