BODY OVERVIEW:
This 1950 Chevrolet 3100 retains its iconic rounded fenders and vintage curves, but with tasteful modern touches that don’t detract from its original design. The body is clean and straight, and shows beautifully. The lowered stance paired with classic wheels gives it just enough attitude without going overboard, and the wood bed floor combines beautifully with the relocated battery and fuel tank!
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
Finished in a brilliant shade of green, this truck pops in any setting—from your driveway to the cruise-in parking lot. The paint has a deep, glossy finish that highlights the truck’s lines and vintage styling. Although not a shade of green originally offered, green was a popular color on these trucks when new and the current color is a tasteful homage to the history of 3100s. It’s not over-restored, but it is well done and looks beautiful. Talk about curb appeal!
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW:
Inside, the gray and black color scheme strikes a nice balance between classic and functional. The gray vinyl bench seat and matching door panels are in great condition, showing minor wear expected of a classic that has been enjoyed since it was restored. As nice as it is, this isn't a trailer queen interior—it’s one you can actually enjoy without worrying about every wrinkle or fingerprint, but still be proud of at a cruise-in or car show. Aftermarket temperature and oil pressure gauges ensure more accurate readings, and a Vintage Air A/C & Heat system was the right choice for a comfortable cabin year round!
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW:
Under the hood, a strong-running 350ci small block Chevy V8 makes this truck far more fun than anything 1950 could have imagined! The TH400 3-speed automatic transmission shifts smoothly, and the upgraded rack & pinion steering combined with front disc brakes makes for a much more comfortable ride than was offered originally. The 12-volt system, updated gauges, Vintage Air climate control, and dual exhaust all work together for that extra edge that an unmodified 3100 just doesn’t have. From top to bottom, this 3100 is just the right amount of custom–the kind that anyone can appreciate!
WHAT YOU'LL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR:

Added driving comfort thanks to smart upgrades
Great balance of show-and-go without being too precious to enjoy!
WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR:
If you're after a factory-correct restoration, this isn’t your truck
Interior is tidy and functional, but this isn’t a 2025 model
DOES IT NEED ANYTHING?
No immediate needs, though some minor tweaks could go a long way. Regardless, it’s ready to cruise as-is!
WHAT BUYER IS LOOKING FOR THIS CAR?
