Restored to excellent condition in 2013, the 1952 Chevrolet 3100
pickup displays its black paint with remarkable clarity. Every body
panel shows quality finish work, giving the truck a uniform
appearance from front to back. An exterior sun visor shields the
windshield, adding both function and period-correct style. The
15-inch aftermarket chrome wheels fit properly beneath the fenders,
wrapped in P235/75R15 radial tires for improved roadholding. A
fresh wood bed adds authentic detail to the rear, while all
brightwork has been refreshed during restoration. The short bed
design maintains original proportions while the overall look
remains clean and direct.
Black vinyl covers the bench seat, offering straightforward comfort
in traditional pickup style. The dashboard keeps its factory layout
while adding helpful upgrades for modern use. Extra instrumentation
includes a tachometer mounted on the steering column plus auxiliary
gauges below the dash for monitoring engine conditions. The floor
houses a Lokar shifter for easy gear selection. The original-style
steering wheel features a comfortable wrap, connecting directly to
the manual steering for authentic road feel. Seatbelts add safety
to the otherwise period-correct cabin.
A 350 cubic inch V8 sits front and center, featuring a Holley
4-barrel carburetor for optimal fuel and air mixing. The engine bay
shows attention to detail with clean, painted firewall and chrome
valve covers. A 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission directs power
to a later GM 12-bolt rear axle for improved durability. The dual
exhaust system gives off an appropriate V8 sound. Power disc brakes
handle stopping duties while the truck maintains its traditional
character with leaf spring suspension both front and rear,
supported by shock absorbers for better road control.
