1955 Single Cab

VWLooseNuts · Posted: Thu Sep 17, 2015 7:52 am Post subject: 1955 Single Cab

picked up a very nice SC this week. Can't wait to start in on this one.

it came with a few extra items
autocrat gas door side panel
passenger side inner and outer rockers
extra treasure chest door.
does come with the front press bumper. no rear one though
rust is not that bad at all. doglegs are good front floor is 90% good. truck bed is damn near perfect. gates aren't rusted out at all. tail gate is a bit dinged up but solid. OG front hoop. in the pic its a running driving truck PO want the motor. brakes have been gone through with a bunch of new stuff. MC soft lines cylinders. comes with front glass. inside treasure chest as a couple small rust spots. all in all very nice truck for its age.

Like your truck very; wish I had those gates.
Are you shure it's a 55: backrest and position of shifter look 60 or so.
Waiting for resto pics.

That Truck reminds me of my 1st Vw, a '59 Truck, pleanty of PO Hacks... Crying or Very sad

Circa 1980, Boulder Co., that Truck is now being restored by its latest owner & a VW Bud, in Mass.

Do you have a engine lined up for it ?? Good luck w/ it, Singles are the new ??? Laughing

Your project has a lot going for it and a good place to start. Of course, it has the famous root-beer metallic paint job for that era of mods.

I'm curious, what company did you go with for your safari windows and frames? Did they come in bare metal or did you strip them down?

Thanks!
