Default 1952 Chevy 3100

I made a 7 hour journey to Pennsylvania and picked this truck up on St. Patrick's Day. I got it in the shop yesterday and started running through it, getting an initial assessment on the truck.


What I've got is a very original 1952 Chevrolet 3100, still running the 216CI inline 6 cylinder, with the 3 speed on the column. The truck is still a 6 volt system. The truck came with 4 new tires, a new wood bed kit, tailgate, and some random paperwork.

So far what I've found, the truck is pretty solid aside from both the kick panels. I found one of the wheel bearings was completely destroyed, so I rebuilt the front brakes, on both sides and threw in new bearings. Of course I found some interesting wiring which i've started to fix as I find it.

The overall plan for this truck is to keep it on the road as much as I can, Try to enjoy it while I work on it. Initial plans are
-New Glass
-Convert to 12V system
-New Wiring Harness
-Disc Brakes


Way down the road I'll get real serious and do a frame swap and an LS but thats not until the Camaro is finished.


Now the reason everyone is here....Pics.




She's got a few pedals....
