Originally built as a hardworking tool for post-war America, this
1946 Chevrolet 3800 dually dump truck now shines in Butternut
Yellow paint that gives it both visibility and character. The
imposing dual rear wheel setup and massive 20" wheels with 7.00-20
tires make for an unmistakable profile that combines vintage
styling with rugged capability. What makes this truck special is
the hydraulic dump bed - ideal for hauling and working materials -
paired with classic design elements like the front chrome bumper
and rustic wood bed floor that maintains authentic old-school truck
character.
The tan vinyl interior offers straightforward utility with a
refreshed bench seat that provides comfort during operation. A
clean dashboard houses updated stock-look gauges that maintain the
period-correct appearance while providing accurate readouts. The
floor shifter falls readily to hand, giving you full control over
the transmission. Air conditioning and power steering add modern
convenience to this classic workhorse, making it far more
accommodating than when it rolled off the assembly line nearly 80
years ago.
Powering this mighty hauler is a 350 cubic inch GM 5.7 liter V8
engine upgraded with Fitech electronic fuel injection for reliable
starting and consistent performance. The powerplant connects to a
TH400 automatic transmission enhanced with a Gear Vendors overdrive
unit, giving you extra flexibility on the highway. Dual exhaust
with FlowMaster mufflers and shorty manifolds provide a satisfying
exhaust note, while power drum brakes bring everything to a
controlled stop. The truck rides on an I-beam front suspension with
leaf springs, maintaining its heavy-duty capability.
