Vehicle Description
1935 Chevrolet Dump Truck
Thornycroft developed a steam dustcart in 1896 with a tipper
mechanism. The first motorized dump trucks in the United States
were developed by small equipment companies such as The Fruehauf
Trailer Corporation, Galion Buggy Co. and Lauth-Juergens among many
others around 1910.
For consignment a project truck that will give you the bare bones
of a 1935 1-1/2-ton dump truck by Chevrolet. Donning rustic red,
and also plenty of surface and invasive rust on the cab and front
cowling and curved fenders. Grille has a hole in the front mesh,
but most parts to the cab are there. Interior structure of seats
dash steering, and shift lever is there, and needs a total
restoration. There is no engine or actual rear box for dumping,
just the frame.
The frame has surface rust; however, we could not get under it to
see if it is structurally sound. The box lifting mechanism appears
as it is there however it may not be complete, and currently is
inoperable.
Dual rear wheels without tires wrapping them sit below the frame.
We can see leaf spring suspension all around, and mechanical drum
brakes putting a stop to all 4 wheels.
An ambitious project for the early big truck enthusiast, plenty of
age and patina to be gone over and refreshed. Engine bay is open so
you can choose your power, as well as your bucket to be tipped!
