Description
The 1949 Chevrolet 3100 Advanced Pickup 3. 85L is a classic car manufactured by Chevrolet in 1949. This pickup truck features a manual transmission, blue exterior colour, and brown interior. With only two doors, it has a seating capacity for three passengers. It comes with a V5C registration document and is considered a valuable addition to any collector's arsenal of classic cars. This vintage vehicle is a left-hand drive beauty that showcases the craftsmanship and design of its era.
