Their first major redesign after WWII, the new GM Advanced Design trucks were an instant hit with a public who were desperate for new automobiles. Hitting the market in 1947, the trucks were built with minimal changes until 1955. Sold in 3100, 3600, and 3800, these ½, ¾, and 1 ton trucks were durable and available in multitudes of configurations. A range of inline 6 cylinder engines were available as well. GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this gorgeous 1950 3100 for your consideration. This truck is absolutely beautiful, courtesy of a complete restoration in 2019. The truck is powered by a GM 350v8 crate motor with 540 miles on it mated to an automatic TH 400 transmission with a 12 volt system. Other highlights include new tinted glass, new upholstery, 4 wheel disc brakes with dual master cylinders, new steel brake lines, electric wipers, new chrome bumpers, new chrome grill, new aluminum radiator, power steering, vintage air heater, black walnut bed wood, all new box, all steel body, new running boards, new tires and new chrome wheels. The truck is finished in Sour Apple metallic and shows exceptionally well. The truck comes with a binder of receipts and photos of the restoration.
