1950 Chevy Series 3100 Deluxe Cab: In 1925, Ford was the first of the Big Three to enter the pickup market, but it was Chevrolet that stood tall as Detroit’s top truck-seller by the time of World War II. Chevy resumed civilian truck production in August 1945, and really got back to business in May 1947 with its new “Advance Design” pickups. Wider, longer and lower than the prewar leftovers marketed in 1946, the Advance Design models looked thoroughly modern and featured an equally modern “alligator” hood hinged at the rear. Beneath that gator was Chevy’s proven 216-cid “Stovebolt” six-cylinder. There were few changes as the Advance Design trucks rolled into the 1950s, but Chevy continued to sell more trucks than all rivals—even with Ford’s new F-series models on the market after 1948.

The Advanced Design trucks are great when they are 100% stock but they go to a whole new level of awesome you add modern day touches. In today’s classic car community, owners don’t just want to look at their rides sitting pretty in the garage. They want to drive their classics and with an updated drivetrain, late-model suspension, and creature comforts like a stereo system and cold A/C, the ride truly becomes as fun as it looks. This beautiful Chevy 3100 (5 Window) delivers just that experience! Although the build was completed apprx 15 years ago, it has been garage kept and still presents extremely well.
