Found only on the early Advanced-Design models, this 1953 Chevrolet 3100 5 Window pickup features the distinctive curved glass corners and five-piece grille that make it immediately recognizable. The two-tone Silver and Purple finish adds custom character to this half-ton pickup, while the added sunvisor and aluminum American Racing 15" wheels enhance its overall look. The short bed design offers excellent utility without compromising style, and the clean fenders flow seamlessly into the running boards. The 225/75R15 tires provide good road contact, complemented by upgraded headlights, a practical tonneau cover, and polished dual exhaust tips that finish off the exterior details.
The interior combines Gray and Purple tweed upholstery that matches the outside color scheme. Bucket seats offer good support for longer drives, alongside custom door panels and a coordinated headliner. The purple-painted dashboard contains a full set of upgraded gauges for accurate readings. An aftermarket wood-grain steering wheel offers improved grip and style, while the floor-mounted shifter provides direct control. For audio enjoyment, the JVC stereo system includes AM/FM/AUX functions with Bluetooth connectivity, blending old-school looks with modern tech for everyday use.
For performance, this Chevrolet runs a 250 CI Inline 6 engine that generates solid, reliable power. A Rochester 2-Jet single two-barrel carburetor handles fuel delivery, and the TH350 three-speed automatic transmission shifts without fuss. The aluminum radiator upgrade improves cooling efficiency during hot weather. Power steering makes for easy maneuvering in tight spots, and power disc brakes provide strong stopping ability. Suspension consists of I-beam with leaf springs up front and a solid axle with leaf springs in back, with a durable 10-bolt rear differential keeping things moving.
