1950 Chevrolet 3100! After World War II Chevrolet was looking to
revitalize their aging AK Series of trucks and brought the new
Advance Design to the market. The Advance Design series brought
forth a new look that was well received and sales were strong. This
series would see production from 1947-1955. Here we have a 50 model
and wow is she a beauty. This Chevy is one of the highest modified
and cleanly built trucks we have ever had here! In the late owners
words he wanted to be able to drive at 70mph and have the ride and
steerability of a luxury car and be able to win some car shows.
Averys Paint and Body Shop was selected since a car painted by John
Avery won a large local show. And so a frame off restoration began
and brings what you now see in these images. The Porsche Guards Red
paint looks terrific and has a lot of depth to protect it with 5
coats of paint and 4 layers of clear on top! Was stripped to bare
metal repaired where needed and primered block sanded sealed and
painted. And even then was color sanded buffed with 2 compounds and
hand waxed. The tan ultra-leather upholstery with brown ostrich
inserts looks very comfortable Seats carpet headliner all redone
and in great order. The mechanical work was performed by BKs Rod
Shop and is who installed the GM 350ci Ram Jet Crate Motor with
Block Hugger Headers and 700R4 Overdrive Transmission with a stall
speed convertor. Rear End is 10 Bolt GM Limited Slip Diff with 3.73
Richmond Gear Ratio for a balance of performance and cruising.
Chrome Alternator A/C Compressor Valve Covers w/Aluminum Pulleys
and Spark Plug Wire Looms. Straight Axle front end was replaced
with IFS Mustang Power Rack and Pinion suspension with tubular A
Arms. Frame was powder coated semi-gloss black. Braking system is a
power boosted 4-wheel disc setup. Bed flooring is a Golden Oak with
several coats of clear gloss urethane and polished stainless steel
stripes. Tail gate contains hidden hinges. The restoration required
much customization shaved door handles gas tank relocation remove
the cowl vent fabricate a smooth firewall and install the hidden
hinges in the tailgate. There is so much more. The build of this
truck is really extensive and appears done to a high caliber! The
current owner has had her for 4 years and came from her late
father. Custom airbrush work in great detail under the hood tells
the story about Tom. This truck has been in the family for around
25 years and was a bucket list item for Tom and became a passion
for him! I believe he achieved the vision he was after! The truck
comes with a massive amount of documents receipts and entire album
of photos of the extensive restoration! Also has a 1950 P/U truck
cover battery charger extra spark plugs and more. The title is
clean and clear. Dont miss out on your chance to own what could be
one of the sharpest well-built trucks that we have seen in years!
