1954 GMC 100 Patina Pickup Truck (Chevy 3100 equivalent) For Sale

The best selling trucks in America between 1947 and 1955 were all manufactured by GM. The first major redesign after WWII was known under the Chevrolet badge as ‘Advance-Design’ (and 'New Design' for GMC) and featured integrated headlights, a stronger, sleeker body, and a larger cab. GMC 100 trucks were targeted toward professionals with focus on their reliability as utility vehicles.

This 1954 truck retains a real period patina with original dark blue paint peeking through the later copper/ gold colour scheme. It has a uniquely rock-solid frame with no rust in the cab corners, floors, or running boards. It is a long wheel base model and has the factory side mount spare tyre and retains its original ‘jet rocket’ hood ornament.

Under the hood is a 4. 1 litre straight six engine with a 3 speed column shift gearbox. It starts very easily on the original 6v system and runs smoothly. Even without modern power steering and brakes, the truck is a pleasure to drive.

Because of the excellent condition of the chassis and bodywork, we have wanted to keep the truck as is as much as possible. It is in a very good position to be enjoyed as a near-original patina truck, a RetroMod project, or restored.

The truck has benefitted from a great deal of recent work but has clearly been kept up and running in good order throughout its life.

Recent work includes:

-Rebuilt starter motor
-Rebuilt heater value and core
-New ignition switch
-New battery
-New park/ indicator light conversion kit
-New brake master cylinder
-New hubcaps, headlight switch, heater switch, indicator switch
-Re-finished existing wooden bed
-Re-chromed grill

This truck has recently been imported from the US and will come with DVLA registration and number plates.
