This 1954 Chevrolet 3100 is a delightful classic, showcasing its original Thriftmaster 235ci straight-six engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. Thought to have undergone a frame-off rebuild and repaint by 2017, this truck embodies vintage Americana while boasting modern touches and extensive recent mechanical updates.
In 2023, the current owner enhanced the truck's drivability with a series of updates, including a new radiator and hoses, new king pins, a self-exciting 12V alternator, new axle seals, new rear wheel cylinders, a new gas gauge, temperature gauge, LED headlights, clutch, and a fresh transmission gasket. Additionally, it features a modern Retrosound radio, seamlessly blending classic aesthetics with contemporary convenience.
With its timeless design, mechanical reliability, and thoughtful upgrades, this 3100 is equally suited for weekend drives, showcasing at events, or as a standout addition to any collection.
