Is this 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Custom a great vintage pickup or a cool hot rod? Well, ith serious V8 power and a real wood truck bed, his Chevy is the best of both worlds...and trucks of this vintage do not stay in our showroom long!This is the kind of body that draws attention from everyone. The butter-smooth burgundy paint highlights just how amazingly straight the panels are. It's the perfect complement to the custom elements like the air spoiler ribbed tailgate, treamlined rear end with integrated taillights, nd shaved door handles. But those are the obvious pieces. Take a closer look, nd you'll notice great little touches like how the headlights have had their chrome surround removed, nd the units have been frenched. Despite all these custom touches, here still are plenty of great vintage elements. The truck bed is still made of real wood, nd the iconic chrome grille is pristinely stock. In total, his is obviously one pickup that has had a lot of time and money invested in making it the right balance of the new and old worlds.Inside there is even more great custom work. There are tall bucket seats that are vastly more comfortable than the bouncy bench that came from the factory over half a century ago. Covered in a soft gray cloth with burgundy inserts, t complements the metal on this truck very nicely. The driver gets a Lecarra sports steering wheel with a bow tie Chevy emblem etched in the center. Beyond that are a set of SW gauges that offer a similar pattern to the originals, ut are much clearer and cleaner. In fact, he whole dashboard has been customized to be tastefully uncluttered. But, implified does not mean this pickup lacks great features. The matching upholstered door panels have switches to operate the power windows. A custom center console holds the air conditioning controls, nd there's even an AM/FM/CD stereo located in a cool overhead console. Pop the hood for the coolest custom piece on this pickup. The 350 cubic-inch Chevy V8 includes a host of upgrades from the Edelbrock catalog, ncluding valve covers, erformance air cleaner, nd intake. The whole engine bay shines in burgundy and is exceptionally tidy (when was the last time someone complemented you on the on the little things like the steel braided air conditioning tubing that plugs neatly into the firewall?). The small block is mated to a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission that connects to a stout 10-bolt rear end. This is the perfect car show companion, nd evening cruise in king, specially with the lowered stance and 15-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels. In fact those features, lus the power steering and front disc brakes also make this truck a great all-day cruiser or daily driver.This is the kind of classic pickup that sacrifices nothing. You can be a big hit at your next event without having to leave the air-conditioned comfort of your bucket seat. It wont last so call today!!
