Originally developed to do hard work around the farm or workshop, the Chevy pick-ups from the '40s are immensely popular subjects for not only restoration, but also customization. And why not! It doesn't take much to make it look like a rad example of American hot-rod culture. 

The 1948 Chevrolet 3100 Thriftmaster is a truly iconic American truck that holds a special place in automotive history. This stunning example is the end-result of an extensive, ground-up restoration that was only recently completed. The bodywork is original, except for a new tailgate, and all the chrome fittings are brand new.

Under the bonnet is a 5.7L (350cu) V8 engine, mated with an automatic transmission. The suspension has been upgraded with Jaguar components.

The vehicle is fully licensed and roadworthy.
