This 1952 Chevrolet 3100 pickup is for the person who wants the
ultimate time machine. It was restored to a clean '50s appearance
so that you can appreciate every detail and really love the
old-school style.
It will be hard to find a pickup that looks this nice and so
authentically vintage. The way the panels fit on this pickup, let
you know someone took the time in restoration to erase its workman
past without erasing its historic appearance. The light blue has a
great classic vibe, and the quality application has all the luster
to give you plenty of nostalgia. When the paint looks this good,
only the best brightwork will do. That's why the bumpers, bezels,
badging, and hubcaps shine like mirrors. While you're looking at
the wheels, you know you love the look of color-matched steelies
with wide whitewalls. Not only does that white look great against
the blue, but it's also matched on the subtle pinstripe surrounding
the cab. More thoughtful details are revealed when you look at the
truck bed. The fresh and bright lumber really adds to this truck's
overall cheery personality.
The interior is still working-class all the way, but that's all
part of the vintage truck appeal. The exterior blue returns and now
it's joined by a tasteful gray. The vinyl bench seat shows
virtually no wear, and the same can be said for the door panels and
rubber flooring. Pickups from the 1950s didn't come adorned with a
long feature list, and that actually adds to this 3100's charm. In
fact, the AM radio would instantly make this an upper-class pickup
in the '50s. This is part of an era where its heater was a valued
option because it gave you a chance to warm up on your way home
from working the day in the outdoors. Those are the kinds of things
you think about from this truck's big airy and open cabin. You get
to connect to a bygone era every time you grab the three-spoke
steering wheel and gaze at the large original gauge package.
The 235 cubic-inch inline six continues this trucks attractively
honest presentation. In fact, we know you'll love showing off all
the details, from the long blue valve cover to the classic wiring
looms. While this is not an all-out speed machine, the
column-shifted three-speed manual transmission ensures you are in
complete control of the powerband. Besides, you don't buy a truck
like this for all-out performance. Sure, a small block fits easily
in the engine bay, but your largest enjoyment is watching others
see you ride around town in this alluring package. And right now
you get to do that with an intoxicating rhythmic chug that comes
from true vintage truck motoring.
If you appreciate rolling history, then you how special this truck
is. Don't miss you chance, call today!
