Original Owner's Manual

Texas Classic Cars of Dallas is proud to present this beautifully restored 1950 Chevrolet 3100 series light duty pickup truck. Chevrolet's Advanced Design trucks made many strides post-war in a prosperous, up-lifting time. This was the era where a pickup truck driver was a small business owner and working man.

You may need the owner's manual. We have the original one. This truck has spent the last two years in a private owner's garage. He purchased the truck from a gentleman in Missouri in its present condition. Prior to that gentleman's ownership, the truck was in an Arizona collection. Today, it is proudly displayed in Texas Classic Cars of Dallas' showroom.

This truck was built right. it has been disassembled and restored well. The paint is in very good condition as is the sheetmetal throughout.

The chrome is in excellent condition. The grille and bumpers are beautiful front to back.

You'll open the hood to find a jewel of an engine compartment. This engine bay was restored with attention to detail. The engine features a chromed valve cover and timing cover. The inner fenderwells, core support, and firewall sheetmetal has been finished to match the truck, in blue. All of the bolt heads and fasteners are bright and detailed. The body welting was replaced throughout. Many hours were spent on this one and it shows.

The 216.5 cubic inch Thriftmaster 6 received some upgrades for 1950, amounting to another 2 horsepower for 92 total. This is a very smooth running engine & gearbox. The engine was rebuilt by previous owner & transmission has been gone through, clutch replaced, etc. Be sure to play our video to see it start with the original foot starter pedal and cruise down the road.

Check out the external oil filter.

The oil bath air cleaner has a little extra detail done to it, as does the rest of this truck. The valve cover is chrome as is the timing cover. Again, the firewall and inner fenders are beautifully detailed to match the exterior.

Note the original door identification plate is in place in the door jamb.

Open the doors to 1950. The cab is in excellent condition, inside and out.

The dash is beautifully restored.

The dash displays the restored factory gauge cluster with functional gauges. The factory steering wheel is also retained. There is no power steering, but the truck is really not hard to drive. The 3-speed manual floor shift goes through the gears with ease. The brakes stop straight, upgraded to front disc's for safety sake.

The running boards are in excellent condition as are the door jambs, cab corners, weatherstrip, etc.

The vinyl seating and headliner insert is in very good condition throughout. The rubber mat and flooring is clean and detailed as well. The foot start pedal and emergency brake work as they should. One change from original is the AM/FM bowtie cassette stereo installed.

The doors are in excellent condition, both the metal and paint. The door panel inserts were replaced during the restoration with the same hard backing material the headliner is made of.

Just look at that reflection of the wood bed in the cab.

Here is a shine to be proud of.

The bed is in excellent condition as is the tailgate and inner bed sheetmetal throughout. The polished strips and wood show very well.

This stance is perfect. This '50 Chevrolet 3100 truck rides on the factory steel wheels, restored and color-keyed in blue. The Chevrolet wheel covers, beauty rings, and wide whitewall radial tires are the right choice for this pickup truck.

As always, many of this trucks photos were taken at the Dallas Love Field Frontiers of Flight Museum, located only minutes from our showroom. Be sure to visit our friends at the Flight Museum if you find yourself in Dallas, Texas.

The undercarriage further re-iterates the thorough restoration effort's completed on this '50 model. The underbody is in excellent condition, front to back. The engine & transmission are clean. The rear end and suspension show well and have been rebuilt. The spare tire/wheel is mounted in the back, under the bed. The exhaust system was replaced front to back, with a chromed deflector on the tip.

The under dash mounted vintage Chevrolet heater unit is working, as is the fan.

The fresh air vent opens and closes as it should.

Look closely, you'll see a tasteful pinstripe running across the cab line, just behind the hood.

This '50 Chevrolet 3100 Series is in good company here at Texas Classic Cars of Dallas.

Meet the mother-daughter team that's worked on almost every Chevy Volt

Sun, May 11 2014

It's Mother's Day, and we're soft enough we love our mothers enough to share a new video from General Motors with you. In it, we meet Monique Watson (left) and Evetta Osbourne, a mother-daughter team that works at the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly where GM makes the Chevy Volt (along with all of GM's other plug-in hybrids: the Opel Ampera, Holden Volt and Cadillac ELR). The two work side-by-side and have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on almost all of those vehicles - nearly 80,000 of them - since GM started making the pre-production Volts in 2009. In a prepared statement, Watson said that she likes working next to her mom, day in and day out, and they the two are totally in sync when it comes to putting the 400-pound, 16.5-kWh packs into the vehicle undersides. They two can also share stories throughout the day, and Watson said, "The arrangement has absolutely improved our relationship." Osborne started working at Detroit-Hamtramck in 1999, Watson since 2006. If you're driving a Volt today, you probably have them to thank for doing a bit of the work putting your car together. See a short video of them in action below. It's Always Mother's Day for Detroit-Hamtramck Duo Mother, daughter install lithium-ion battery pack in nearly all GM electric vehicles 2014-05-08 DETROIT – For Detroit resident Evetta Osborne, every day is Mother's Day. That's because she literally works side by side with her daughter, Monique Watson, at General Motors' Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant. They have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on nearly every Chevrolet Volt, Opel Ampera, Holden Volt, and Cadillac ELR since production began. In fact, apart from vacation days and an occasional sick day, the mother-daughter duo has installed almost every battery pack since the Volt was in pre-production in 2009. The ELR launched earlier this year. All told Â– including Ampera Â– that's more than 80,000 electric vehicles. "We're a good team and our relationship is secondary when it comes to performing our jobs Â– but it's great to work alongside my daughter, said Osborne, a mother of five. Because the battery packs weigh more than 400 pounds each, automatic guided vehicles Â– robotic carts that use sensors to follow a path through the plant Â– deliver them just as the vehicle body structures glide into position overhead. The carts then lift the T-shaped packs, and Osborne and Watson guide them into the chassis and secure each one with 24 fasteners.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize. Scroll down below for an official announcement from General Motors.
