Vehicle Description
Patina trucks teach us there's more than meets the eye. After all,
with a terrific gloss, upgraded interior, and a powerful V8, this
1954 Chevrolet 3600 pickup has a cool kind of confidence that goes
beyond its worn-in appearance. If you haven't already realized, we
have this truck marketed as a 3100 because it now resembles one
over the 3600 it was born to be.
This is a patina'd body, which is always going to get you attention
and conversations wherever you go. But what gives this one back the
hint of luster it lost decades ago is a new clear coat finish. It
seals in the distinct appearance and adds some protection, which is
a good thing considering all the other investments that have been
made to make this a long-term classic. You see its true charm in
the Coys wheels that are staggered 18/20 inches front/rear for a
hint of aggression. This is furthered by the lowered suspension
that neatly tucks these modern alloys under the classic fender
lines. A newer wood bed was added so that this could accommodate
the lower stance while not losing its vintage charm. In fact,
speaking of classic appeal, we know you love all the extra pieces
like the visor over the windshield, classic toolbox, vintage Coca
Cola cooler in the bed that houses the battery. While people are
admiring the patina earned during its workman life, you get to
point out the 3600 badging that reminds everyone this is a rarer
3/4 ton pickup.
Inside is more classic truck appeal with modern upgrades. The cool
style of the Advance Design pickup is furthered by the addition of
the stylized Bel Air steering wheel. The custom textured cover of
the tan seat cover and matching door panels add some very distinct
class. But as you spot the auxiliary gauges and performance
shifter, you realize this worn-in truck might have something extra
under the hood.
The 350 cubic-inch V8 is far more displacement than what came on
the entire Advance Design series - even an extra-duty 3600 like
this one. Plus, with serpentine belts, an aluminum radiator, and
electric fan, this is a more modern and reliable runner than its
exterior might suggest. And so while you're thinking about cruising
this patina machine, upgrades like the three-speed automatic
transmission, upgraded chassis components, and four-wheel disc
brakes will really get you mind going about how far you can easily
take this former workhorse.
This is an exceptionally cool patina custom that's unique, sporty,
and all-around comfortable. So don't miss out on something this
distinct. Call now!
