Year/Make 1934 Chevrolet Panel Truck
Owner: Richard Leier
What a rare panel truck! This little 1934 Chevrolet is almost a "one of a kind". With it being under construction, we just had to share these pictures.
You can see it was originally assembled from metal sections. A wood framework secured the metal panels to make a solid usable vehicle. As long as the wood remained strong, it served it's purpose. Unfortunately, the enemy was leaking canvas top plus rust and wood rot on the lower level. The cost of replacing the canvas top was probably close to the panel truck's value in the 1940's and 1950's. Thus, this panel truck is one of the last of thousands sold that year.
