Vehicle Description
1932 Chevrolet Pickup
When in the consignment business, one sees prewar vehicles roll
through our door, and they have been modified in some ways. Be it
chopped, clipped, bobbed, channeled, hair dryer-ed, raked, ratted,
shaved or any other number of crazy terms that people do to
customize their cars, it makes one think...are there any good
originals around anymore? What about the originals designs that
excited the masses for the new model, or design at the local
showroom? Well, look no further.
This restored original was painstakingly brought back to life after
years of farm work in upstate New York. Every detail has been kept
to original specs with most original equipment brought back during
the restoration. The current consigner would use this truck to take
his granddaughter on a drive every Sunday. No, they did not go to
church on Sundays, but even further!
Exterior
All steel here on this BA Confederate, or Chevy Confederate,
brought out in 1932. This particular model truck has many add on
options such as the spare tire on the side with cover, dual chrome
horns, a sun visor, parking lights, a chrome grille bug cover, and
chromed vent doors on the hood. Blue over black fenders all in
pristine condition covers the outside shell, and seams (as they
were mostly overlapping at this time) are factory fresh. Running
boards look as though they were never stepped on. A beautiful
flying eagle radiator cap ornament tops the car off in the front.
The rear of the car shows original Chevrolet fender brake lights,
and a pristine bumper. A new oak bed has been installed and shows
very nicely and has seen little use. Wire spoked wheels in
brilliant yellow are on all 4 corners as well as the fender mounted
spare.
Interior
The black and blue theme is continued interior wise with the
installation of a black vinyl split bench seat with a solid back.
Black gloss on the dash, and blue door panels, or should I say
painted metal. Original gauges are clustered in the middle of the
dash, and something rarely seen...a tube, (yes tube) radio which
works is in the passenger dash. A wiper motor and wiper are
installed, as well as a under dash heater. Floors are covered with
updated but period design vinyl in black.
Drivetrain
An original stove bolt 6 inline engine is installed under the hood
cowling and sports the big plugs to burn that fuel. A 3-speed
manual transmission is bolted on, and otherwise the underside is
clean and rust free. Simply laid out, with little but functional
operating parts are seen underneath. 4-wheel drum brakes are within
the wire wheels and are all functional.
A truly pristine restored to original 1932 Deluxe Pickup is not
something you see every day. Especially one with all the extra
chrome and add on options. 72,934 miles is what the odo says, but
only true mileage is known by history. Either way it is a pristine
driver that can be driven to a show and back home with trophies in
the pickup bed!
