1952 GMC 3100 5 Window Additional Info:
Since it's becoming harder to find General Motors Advance Design pickups, getting a GMC version is a true discovery. Best of all, this restored 1952 GMC 100 is a very vintage presentation that also has a desirable five-window cab!
Take a real close look at this one. It has great two-tone champagne and brown color combination. There was a solid investment in restoring this truck, so they also added a nice metallic element to the paints to give the smooth finish and extra radiance in the sunshine. It's part of a total package that looks terrific while remaining period-correct. For example, you still get the large and distinctive GMC grille, but we bet it never shined this bright from the factory. And the bumpers, trim, and GMC hubcaps all have a quality polish to match. You see more of this classic yet upgraded attitude in the truck bed that keeps the real-wood. But the lumber's deep gloss lets you know this pickup has never seen a hard day since restoration.
The interior adds a touch of flair to its working-class attitude. The slick champagne metallic of the exterior returns on the door tops and dash. Plus, you've got a nice custom bench seat with stylish inserts. It's finished in leather and the door panels were even done to match. So it's great to have the five-window cab that lets in extra light to get a better look at this clean and attractive setup. But even with these upgrades, you never lose that vintage pickup feeling. It's a true classic atmosphere with the large three-spoke steering wheel, factory gauges, durable rubber floor mat, and even the classic GMC heater is there for display.
One of the reasons why you wanted a GMC in 1952 is because their inline-six was even more powerful than the Loadmaster unit from Chevy. Especially with this optional 248 cubic-inch unit. That makes for an interesting conversation piece, and this stock-style engine bay is certainly tidy enough to show off. You'll even love the details, like the oil bath air cleaner and GMC-stamped head. The motor fires up and runs like a well-respected and well-restored truck should. This kind of classic engine has a fantastic old truck exhaust note that chugs along like a freight train. For that added touch of period-correct fun, the motor is mated to a three-speed column shift manual transmission.
This GMC looks distinct, has a great shine, and loves to go out for Sunday drives. It makes for that ideal vintage pickup total package you don't want to let slip away. Call today!!!
