This 1952 Chevrolet 3100 pickup truck received a full restoration 10 years ago. The exterior showcases a bold red paint job that makes this classic hauler impossible to ignore. Chrome accents, including the bumpers and dog dish hubcaps, provide a gleaming contrast against the vibrant paintwork. Coker Classic P205/75R15 whitewall tires wrap around 15-inch wheels, adding a touch of class to this workhorse. Textured running boards offer both style and functionality. The split rear window, a .....
signature design element of early '50s Chevy trucks, gives this 3100 its unmistakable profile.
Black vinyl covers the freshly upholstered bench seat, delivering both durability and period-correct aesthetics. The dashboard features custom wood-grain painted trim, adding visual interest to the cabin. New rubber carpeting lines the floor, balancing comfort and practicality. A column-mounted shifter for the three-speed manual transmission sits within easy reach. The dash houses a newly installed gauge system, providing accurate readouts while maintaining a vintage look. A radio delete plate offers a clean slate for audio system customization, allowing the new owner to tailor the truck to their preferences.
A 216 cubic inch inline-six engine provides motivation for this classic pickup. It's mated to a three-speed manual transmission, delivering an authentic driving experience. The engine compartment boasts a chrome valve cover, adding a subtle flash of style. An aftermarket split manifold feeds into a true dual exhaust system, likely enhancing both performance and sound. The suspension retains its original configuration with a straight axle and leaf springs up front, complemented by leaf springs and shocks in the rear. This setup maintains the truck's classic ride characteristics. Drum brakes at all four corners bring the Chevy to a halt, just as they did when it first hit the streets.
