Unmolested 55 2nd to 59. Chevrolet should never have stopped making them. And should start making them again.

Re: What is the most desireable 50's
You're definitely opening this up to individual opinions.
I'm going to say the most desirable 50's truck is a '49!

Re: What is the most desireable 50's
The most desirable is the more common 55-57 stepside. If your into 2nd series trucks. If you want something unigue go for a 58-59 fleetside. 47-54 are great also. If really want different go for a gmc.

Re: What is the most desireable 50's
I like the 55-57 myself. In fact I just bought a 56. The old car price "Guide" gives more value to the 48-53.

Re: What is the most desireable 50's
I'm wondering why that truck is only 9500. If it was closer it would be mine. It looks real good in the pictures.

Re: What is the most desireable 50's
55-57 cameo has to be at the top of the list price wise.
But like everyone else said its whatever floats your boat not how much its worth to someone else that matters... -Joel |
