Re: 1958 Golden
I agree with Orrie. Restore that truck back to factory or let some else that will. GM might want that back.

Re: 1958 Golden
As mentioned, it was the 50th yr of chevy, also known as their golden jubilee. They had special cars and trucks to commemorate the milestone.

Re: 1958 Golden
There has to be some kind of Chevy museum, or even Chevy themselves that should have someone that would know.
Chevy historian, or museum curator should have, or be able to find the numbers. I agree with Orrie, if you can't do it, find someone who can. Chevy might want it back. |

Re: 1958 Golden
I read that it was a one car/truck per dealership.

Re: 1958 Golden
On two of the pics posted the firewall was gold, but the firewall on the EBay truck was white from the seam down. Makes me think it was probably a white truck and the gold was added at some point, maybe even by the dealer. Good looking truck either way.

Re: 1958 Golden
I don't recall ever seeing an air filter like that.
It looks like an oil bath with a paper pre-filter on top. Who can explain what it really is?
