In the post-World War II era of progress, Chevrolet introduced the Advance Design series of trucks in 1947, marking the beginning of a new wave of American innovation. Among the lineup, the 3100 stood as the entry-level ½-ton offering, allowing buyers to customize their trucks up to hefty 1-tonners and beyond. Presenting itself today is the 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Custom, a resto-mod masterpiece that has gracefully covered 85,000 miles and proudly displays a collection of awards garnered along its journey.
The kaleidoscope of colors adorning this 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Custom defies a singular label, showcasing hues of blue, pink, and purple that shift with the play of light, even revealing hints of green. Chromed aftermarket rims, coupled with new tires, add a touch of glamour. Notable exterior features include shaved door handles, a tonneau cover, a bed-mounted gas tank filler cap, a discreetly placed battery beneath the passenger side door, and all-around tints. The carpeted truck bed, complemented by the tonneau cover, transforms into a weather-protected, usable load space. The tailgate, adorned with an attractive painted design, completes the visual feast. Inside the cab, a cloth interior, custom steering wheel, and thoughtful creature comforts beckon. An aftermarket radio and CD player cater to your musical preferences, while whimsical details such as fuzzy dice hanging from the rear-view mirror add a touch of nostalgia. The air freshener is a charming reminder that, despite its awards and modifications, this is, at its core, a work truck.
Beneath the hood lies a potent 350ci V8, channeling abundant power to the rear wheels through a Turbo 350 automatic transmission. Embracing customization, the truck boasts new headers, dual aftermarket exhausts, fresh wires, spark plugs, and a new battery. Lowered via carefully chosen springs, the 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Custom embraces a hunkered-down stance, captured gracefully in the photos. This truck is not just a vehicle; it's a unique expression of automotive artistry, waiting for the discerning enthusiast to make their distinctive mark on the road.
Chevy trucks have been moving and shaking American small and medium business owners for nigh on a century. Their excellent legacy includes the current Silverado, which itself was born from the C/K Series. Before that came the Task Force, Advance Design, etc. Hence, a classic Chevy truck is not only a great vehicle to own and drive, but a hat tip towards American automotive excellence. So, we’re proud to present this 1957 Chevrolet 3100 for your consideration. Born in the Task Force Era of 1955-1959, this truck has got many modern features under its skin, including a powerful engine to thrill you on every drive.
Chevy’s Advance Design series of pickup trucks entered the market in 1947, taking over from the venerable AK Series, which had served during World War II. The Advance Design was a major redesign exercise, and nearly everything about these trucks was new; after all, America had emerged from the War, and a new era of enterprise and promise had begun. The Advance Design would thus form the basis of commercial transportation for many small and medium-sized businesses. The Advance Design came in ½, ¾ and 1-tonne capacities, as well as Loadmaster and Thriftmaster configurations. This particular 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod started life as a half-ton truck, and it still remains a half-ton truck. Well, except that it’s received a thorough makeover inside and out, making it something truly distinctive to own and drive.
Chevy’s Task Force series of pickup trucks debuted in 1955, and is the predecessor of the C/K series, which subsequently morphed into the Silverado. Hence, this 1959 Chevrolet 3100 is a forefather of today’s Chevy Silverado full-size pickup trucks. Fresh off a comprehensive restoration, this example has just 15,000 miles since the build, and comes with all servicing up to date. Two keys are also included with the sale of this stunner, making it an excellent restomod to own, drive, and cherish.
Considering an eighth generation Corvette? We don’t blame you; Chevy’s sweetheart sports car is now a fearsome, baby supercar chaser. With its fighter-jet looks, mid-mounted V8, and capable handling, the C8 is a serious driver’s car. Yet, when you need, it can be as docile as a pussycat, as comfortable as any other car, and can even perform daily driving duties without so much as a grumble. That’s got to be reason enough to give this 2023 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible 3LT Z51 70th Anniversary Edition a new home. Want another reason? The car’s got under 3,000 miles on it. If you’re still on the fence, let us tell you a bit about this car.
Chevy’s fourth generation Corvette ran between 1984 and 1996, and was responsible for a major shift in America’s favorite sports car’s persona. The Corvette gained new, angular styling, a digital-style dashboard, more power, and enhanced handling. Mercifully, the much-loved pop-up headlamps were retained. Then, a high-performance variant called the ZR1 was introduced in 1990. The ZR1 drew heavily from Britain’s Lotus sports car maker. Enhancements included a new LT5 V8 engine, larger brakes and sportier suspension tuning. This makes the fourth-generation ZR1 one of the most sought-after neo-classic Corvettes. Here’s a great example up for grabs right now, a 1991 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with just 69,000 miles on the clock. It’s got a rebuilt engine, while all info is as reported by the current owner.
The fifth generation Corvette was revealed in 1997, and would run until 2005. It is the last generation to have the pop-up headlamps, which were discontinued with 2005’s C6 due to inability to meet newer crash regulations. That’s why C5 Corvettes command a special place in the hearts of enthusiasts. That, plus the fact that the C5 has some neat engineering. For example, the transmission is at the rear of the car, coupled to the front-mounted engine via a torque tube that turns at engine speed. This arrangement enables the C5 to achieve the magic 50-50 front-rear weight distribution, vastly improving its handling over the C4. This, plus myriad other upgrades, makes the C5 a definitive future classic, as well as a sports car that you can still enjoy in 2024. So why not jump on the bandwagon of fun and buy this 2000 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible? This car comes with recent servicing, two keys, and 56,067 miles on the odometer.
The Jeep CJ series can trace its roots back to the original Willy’s Jeep, the car that mobilized the American forces during the Second World War. Since then, the Jeep CJ has found its way into the hearts of many around the world, who appreciate this quintessential offroader for its rugged abilities and backyard mechanic simplicity. The CJ-7 was introduced in 1976 and would be the last “CJ” Jeep before the introduction of the Wrangler that we know today. Our featured 1978 Jeep CJ-7 is described as a restomod, with a 304ci V8 engine, and a whole host of improvements to be found under the metal — that’s in no small part thanks to the owner reportedly spending over $13,000 in aftermarket work alone!
People remember the Chevrolet El Camino for one major reason. That reason is the fact that the El Camino is a coupe utility, or ute. The front half is that of a car; the rear half is a pickup truck. However, the El Camino isn’t a rough-riding body-on-frame vehicle. The second generation, from which this 1965 Chevrolet El Camino hails, is adapted from the midsize Chevy Chevelle platform. So, you can expect a suitably car-like ride and handling characteristics, but still get a decent amount of payload capacity thanks to the vehicle’s truck bed. This 90,000-mile 1965 Chevrolet El Camino has received some refurbishment work, and notably, it’s said to have been owned by one family all its life. That makes it a wonderful classic to buy and enjoy.
Classic cars from the ’60s are hot property. But it’s not just cars that have found their way into the hearts of enthusiasts. Humble work trucks like the 1963 Chevrolet C10 are just as desirable. With values for these historic workhorses climbing year after year, it’s getting hard to find good examples of these classics. Our featured 1963 Chevrolet C10 Stepside appears to be largely original and features a 230ci engine, with a four-speed manual transmission. Whether you’re looking for a well-preserved classic truck or the perfect basis for a restomod, this C10 could be the answer you’re looking for.
