Vehicle Description

4159-PHX 1946 CHEVROLET 3800 DUALLY DUMP TRUCK

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.
