My 80 year old uncle is selling the farm and moving to an assisted living facility. I bought the 1935 Chevrolet 1 1/2 ton truck that he has had since my grandfather gave it to him. Although grandpa didn't buy it new, it has been in the family since it was just a couple of years old. My uncle got it from him and used it until 1987 to feed silage every day. At that point he put it up on blocks in the back of the shed.
Last week my cousin helped him get it out, air up the tires, and even get it to fire with gas down the carb. I hopped right on it and told him I would be there this weekend to get it. It's in amazing shape. I'm considering cleaning it up good and clear coating it. She will get driven around the farm here but just for light duty.
I was hoping to fit it on the skid steer trailer but the few pictures I have make it look too long. Does anyone know what the wheelbase for a truck of that size was in '35? It is on the heavy dual wheel chassis.

The Marshall company based at the Briannia Works in Gainsborough
