Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Houston is very happy to offer this
stunning 1953 Chevrolet 3100 5 window P/U. This '53 has been
lovingly cared for by the same owner for the last 48 years, and the
pride of ownership definitely shows! Purchased from the original
owner in 1974, this Merlot (PPG #5748) 5 window beauty has gone
through some upgrades throughout the years, with the additions of
power steering, power brakes, power windows and A/C, among others,
but still holds true to the classic styling of the early 1950's
Chevy 3100's! Powered by a period correct 261 C.I.D. Inline
6-cylinder engine and mated to an early 90's 5-speed manual
transmission, there is more than adequate power for your weekend
cruises, and the additions of cold blowing air conditioning,
4-wheel disc braking, lowered leaf spring suspension and power
steering will only add to the thrill of ownership. The interior of
this '53 shows extremely well with the addition of the beige & dark
brown, 2-tone vinyl, power windows, almost new looking carpets, and
custom headliner. In keeping with the builder's vision, it has all
the modern comforts wrapped up in a 69-year-old wrapper. As the
photos clearly show, this is going to be a super nice addition to
any collection or is going to make someone an instant hit at any
show or cruise they attend. If an early 1950's model 3100 5 window
has been on your wish list, this one is most definitely worth a
further look!
