Vehicle Description
This 1950 Chevrolet 3800 Flat Bed combines classic utility with
modern upgrades. The two-tone paint scheme grabs attention - crisp
white adorns the front while glossy black coats the custom flatbed.
Riding high on 19.5-inch steel wheels wrapped in 225/70R19.5
rubber, this workhorse means business. The hydraulic tilt bed,
operated by a dash switch, adds serious functionality. Dual
mirrors, a Class III hitch, and black-painted grille, bumper, and
running boards complete the no-nonsense exterior.
Inside, practicality meets comfort. A contoured vinyl bench seat
and custom door panels set the tone. The dash retains its vintage
look while housing modern amenities like a retro-style radio and
updated gauges. A Lokar floor shifter adds a performance touch,
complemented by new carpeting. The original steering wheel pairs
with a modern turn signal switch on the column. Air conditioning
vents and controls tucked under the dash blend modern comfort with
classic aesthetics.
A 283 cubic inch V8 engine powers this hauler, paired with a TH350
three-speed automatic transmission. The engine bay showcases a
four-barrel Quadrajet carburetor, direct-drive fan, and cooling
shroud. Dual exhaust with FlowMaster mufflers provides a muscular
sound. While it keeps drum brakes, the addition of a new AC
compressor with R134a refrigerant brings modern climate control.
The solid rear axle with leaf springs and front I-beam suspension
maintain the truck's rugged character and hauling capabilities.
