Here, we walk in with a bill of sale. Anything over 25 years old does not need a title to get one in your name. No inspections of any kind. They do run the VIN through state and national data for theft records.
I would love to find a 64 shorted stepside.
Pawpaw had one, we had the most fun in it.
One day, $$ willing.

Same here! my dad had a few of them when I was a kid. All short box trucks. Always loved the 64/66 body style the best.
Yes, it was last titled in the 80’s, and had a name on the title that was deceased. The next owner of the truck never transferred ownership, and had passed also and his widow was who I bought it from through @eodcoduto here on CK5. He provided a lot of paperwork showing ownership, but Michigan has quite a runaround to transfer an out of state title, with two deceased owners, and the secretary of state (licensing bureau) only takes appointments now, and they are about 3 months out. I’m sure there is a kickback from the insurance industry to require to have title insurance on a 57 yr old truck w 40 yrs of unused timeframe.
Understandingly, the Sheriff deputy ran the vin, even questioning the riveted on tag, she was young lol, I would have gladly threw a Benjamin at them to push this all through!
Looks like the same carb as my 57 Pontiac except for the choke situation.
My grandson and I put some different skins on it today. I think the old ones were oem…lol
the oem rims were rust/bonded to the drums/hubs. A week of penetrating oil and a dozen whacks with a demolition mall broke em loose. Was a bit concerned about those split rings flying off and decapitating me, so I cut the valve stems off to let all the air out before I started, and swung from the side.
then towed it to the side of the shop for the winter. Might throw a tarp over it….

So much cooler with rally’s on it!
These are cool trucks.
I bought my ‘66 back in 1999.

You're retired...get on it!! lol
Whatever happened to this truck?
I've heard of these build and greet things before....
Did one at this cool dudes house like 12-13 years ago...
It was awesome
Seriously though, I'm down to come out for a wrenching weekend sometime if you decide to jump on one of these and need a hand.
Chrissie would be jumping at the chance to help too.
Food for thought on the back burner.
