Description for Chevrolet Other Pickups 1949

1949 Chevy 3100 Deluxe Cab (5 Window): The 3100 was a truck produced by Chevrolet from 1946 through 1959 and retains an iconic 50's styling that can't be replicated. While the five bar grille remained unchanged for the 1949 model year. other features such as appearance and finish had changed.  Inner bar assemblies were changed to a Waldorf White finish.  Trucks that featured a rear corner window. a different rear roof panel section were used.  The windshield still  came in two-pieces with a black rubber seal and stainless steel divider bar.  The interior featured wide seats. large windshield. side and rear windows.  The instrument panel displayed fuel gauge and ammeter. pressure heat indicator  and an oil pressure gauge.   As the owner of a classic car dealership. I get to see all flavors of unbelievable classic vehicles. Yet the ones that I love. love. love the most are Chevy trucks! Maybe it was receiveing a classic C10 as my 1st car at 16 or maybe it is  just the lines of these beauties that can't be beat. Needless to say. I'd personally keep all the examples as nice as this 1949 but. . that would be bad business. What makes this 3100 even harder to let go is the history. Like myself. this classic Chevy started it's life right here in Houston. TX. This amazing truck was purchased new in early November of 1949 at Knapp Chevrolet in downtown Houston. Original title. payment reciepts. Owner Service Policy. and Delco Battery Warranty documentation from this original sale accompany this purchase. This truck was the original owner's pride and joy and was maintained for 40 years until his passing in 1989. This truck was then purchased from his family by a collector just noth of Houston. This second owner performed a ground-up  restoration on the truck in 2003-2004 and later sold it to a local friend. the 3rd owner. in 2012. The most recent owner has decided to reduce his collection of classics and therefore this exceptional 3100 is being offered to the  general public for the first time in 65 years!  The aim of the restoration was to keep the Chevy original and with exception of highway gears and dual exhaust this truck remains very close to how it was when it rolled off the assembly line. The 2. 00 mile odometer reading represents the miles since the restoration was completed. You will see in the photos and we'll very honestly disclose that this Chevy is not a trailer queen. But. if you are looking for an outstanding example that retains originality. has great history. and drives great . this is your truck! The interior is flawless with a perfect and uncut dash. a working original radio. new Saddle seat covers. door panels. and headliner. The Monaco Blue paint shows very nicely. the wood bed is excellent. and the undercarriage is clean.  This 3100 needs nothing and we wouldn't hesitate to jump in it and drive it anywhere. It starts easily. shifts smoothly. stops like it should. and does great at highway speeds. Features and options include; Thriftmaster 235 Inline 6 Cyl. 3 Speed  Transmission. Chrome Bumpers & Mirrors. Visor. Wink Lights. Wheel Skirts. Factory AM/FM Radio. 16" Factory Wheels and thick BF Goodrich Silvertown White Wall Tires!
