American as apple pie. This fire engine red 1953 Chevy Short box pickup has undergone an extensive frame-off restoration with attention to detail and to factory specifications.
These iconic trucks were referred to as the Advance Design Series trucks, from 1947-1955, because they larger, stronger and sleeker design than the Task Series. The classic 1953 red pickup has gorgeous red paint, professionally painted over a of a structurally beautiful step side metal body, jeweled with show chrome all the way around and optioned with a painted to match red windshield visor. The bed has been restored with newer wood, stainless strips and a removable wood railing. This truck is bone stock, powered by a 235 cubic inch, straight six cylinder engine that runs like a sewing machine, paired with a 4-speed with granny gear for stump pulling and upgraded disc brakes for safety. This investment grade truck is rolling on correct steel wheels with chrome trim rings, wrapped in wide whites for that classic Chevy curb appeal.
