This 1949 Chevrolet 3100 pairs the familiar curves of Chevrolet's early postwar pickups with a period presentation and traditional six-cylinder power. Finished in deep blue, the three-window truck features chrome trim, an oak-lined bed and a bench-seat cabin that preserve its classic character. A 235ci inline-six and a column-shifted three-speed manual keep the driving experience closely connected to the truck's straightforward working roots.
The deep blue finish offers an interpretation of Chevrolet's period Windsor Blue, carrying across the cab, rounded fenders and Stepside bed. A chrome grille, chrome bumpers and bright headlight surrounds provide contrast. Chevrolet hood identification and 3100 side badging retain the familiar factory appearance, joined by a split windshield and an opening cowl vent. Finished oak bed boards are secured by painted steel strips, while matching oak side rails frame the cargo area. An embossed Chevrolet tailgate features white lettering and covered support chains, with chrome rear lamp housings completing the rear details. Blue 15" steel wheels wear polished trim rings and polished center caps, surrounded by wide whitewall radial tires.
Under the hood, a 235ci Chevrolet Thriftmaster I6 is equipped with a single carburetor, an AC oil-bath air cleaner and a remote FRAM canister oil filter. Thriftmaster lettering accents the valve cover, and the electrical system has been updated to 12 volts. The engine is paired with a three-speed manual transmission operated through the column-mounted shifter, with power traveling through an enclosed torque-tube driveline to the solid rear axle. A single exhaust system incorporates a cylindrical muffler. Beneath the body, a black-painted ladder frame supports a solid I-beam front axle, leaf springs at both ends and rear lever-action shocks.
Inside, a two-tone black and beige cabin features a black bench seat, matching door inserts and a beige dashboard. Bright door handles and manual window cranks maintain the period appearance. A tradtional three-spoke Chevrolet steering wheel faces a factory-style speedometer and combination instrument cluster, framed by chrome bezels. Ribbed bright dashboard trim incorporates Chevrolet lettering, a central speaker grille and the glovebox, accompanied by an Antique Automobile Radio head unit with FM reception and Bluetooth. A Harrison heater sits beneath the dashboard, while black rubber flooring suits the pickup's practical character.
This Chevrolet offers the appeal of a restored vintage pickup that remains faithful to its original character. Its rich blue finish, warm oak accents and traditional mechanical layout make it an inviting choice for local shows, weekend outings and a collection that values the simple charm of an early Chevrolet truck.
