Beautiful restoration!!!! I'm grateful this wasn't cut and chopped up to be a rat rod. A truly honest restoration kept stock!!!

[@GarageAuto]

Thank you for this support

[@davycrickett7028]

This has given me inspiration for my ’49 two ton. It needs a lot of help, but I will get it going just the same. Thank you for the good example.

[@MikeSmith-ir7xn]

Glad it was restored with nice shiny new paint,and not a mickey mouse/ rusted sorry I mean patina restored

[@johnswick4593]

Nice! Bone stock instead of some chopped up resto-mod. I have a 1954 just the same way.

[@danterry6328]

Loved the paint job. Hate the patina rat rod look. You gave this old girl the respect she deserves. Good job!

[@GarageAuto]

Thank you @Dan

[@cermem]

nice to see that this resto didnt some how morph into another brand and year

[@GarageAuto]

Thanks =)

[@JazzStrat781]

Absolutely beautiful restoration! Was glad to see this old girl restored, wouldn't be able to stop smiling if she was mine 👍

[@GarageAuto]

We are glad, that you like it!

[@garymccord4277]

Such a beautiful truck looks better than new, looks like it came through a time machine from the past to the Future. A++++ video

[@GarageAuto]

Thanks for this support

[@Jimbo-in-Thailand]

OUTSTANDING! I can just imagine when the old girl was new being assembled at the factory and what America was like back then not long after WWII. Sure would like to see her started up and driven on a test ride. Great restoration!👍👍

[@GarageAuto]

=)

[@noname-gr7lf]

Nice work, fellows! Great to see some iconic examples, such as this one, returned to their original and glorious form.

[@Zoompipes]

Wow she is beautiful. Sure can't get anything any more that has that much style or class

[@GarageAuto]

yes she is!

[@skn9895]

What kind of media did you use when blasting the cab and fenders?

[@b.burnett5878]

An outstanding restoraion. Also no lot of gabbing like on other auto restores.

[@GarageAuto]

Thank you!

[@davidpeters9897]

That was a really nice truck to start with. It turned out great!

[@GarageAuto]

Thank you David

[@ruthelzey]

Wow! A ot of work but, that really came out nice!

[@GarageAuto]

[@hussamal-takriti8792]

Good work ceep it classic truck excellent job 👍

[@dcartier100]

Very nice work. Restoring a 5 window 1948 myself. Kudos nice job !!!!

[@victorjohnson7522]

Great when trucks were built solid

[@nedhuff38]

Nice work. I have a 1952 1 ton Which I have worked on In my spare time but I don’t think I will ever get finished. I have owned this truck since 1964 and would love to see it brought back to life one more time. If anyone out there has the means and the time to take this on, I would like to talk to them.

[@jw4620]

Sweet!

[@ernieforrest7218]

Brings back memories from my youth. My father bought a new 1949 3/4 ton pickup in the same color as this one. We use that truck hard in our construction work. Eventually we removed the pickup be and replaced it with a home built flat bed.

[@centralscrutinizer76]

Great job ,the truck will still be around in 50 years. These "patina" rat rods will be in the scrap yard.

[@giancaaleandri4253]

Fantastico restauro!!!! Complimenti per l'ottimo lavoro!! Bravissimi!!! Saluti dall'Italia ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@billy1673]

I would’ve taken it before the rebuild! Beautiful. I’d prefer the Icon versions of these trucks. All the exact looks of the original but with modern mechanics and electronics.

[@curtcooper9447]

It's perfect 👌

[@GarageAuto]

👌

[@stevenspain8284]

Seems like a lot of effort to back a boat anchor engine and "lets die in a crash" drum brakes. Back in the late 50's, guys junked 216's and put in 235's. 216 is poor oiler.

[@norherman]

Yes I like the stock condition. But I would have added 12 volt sys. modern brakes and tires. Move the ign sw. off the floor to the dash. maybe a over drive. Thanks for sharing.

[@vm722]

I don't guess that you will be taking this truck out for firewood. Like it used to 🤔 Awesome truck. Great job. 👍

[@IronHorseGarage]

Extremely badass truck!! Very nice!!

[@wailpurgis1236]

Really a beautiful project, good job, i hope in a few years i can found one Chevy apache ir 3100 , yo restore just like you did

[@larryhicks7558]

Reminds me of my granddad. He had one. Starter up beside the gas pedal. Three on the tree and the battery in the passenger floor. Wow that was a basic rust free job to start with. Nice you got a much bigger gas tank than the one behind the seat in the cab. Nice job in the end

[@420catson]

my pops has one that use to be a work truck for his welding company, it was a flatbed that would hold a big welder on the back, were gonna get her singin like a song

[@douglashart5059]

Beautiful job on this restoration! Can you share how long it took? What is the color of the blue? Fabulous color choice!

[@timothyhopper8804]

Had a great truck to start with, glad you kept it stock. Beautiful job guys!!!

[@saidrokh4224]

Good job.

[@clips_with_rick]

This was really insightful for my own project

[@M4STERcontrol]

Not a fan of the music. Everything else is great.

[@danielaruta8816]

Skinny tires on her way to Sunday school and the 5 and Dime.

[@Petree29]

Can anyone give me a supplier for that exact interior color?

[@xanninc.abrasivewaterjetcu3896]

I have a 1954 3100, what gas tank did you use?

[@davidoswald6194]

Beautiful restoration so good to see the old girl get a new lease in life

[@terencewhalen8034]

Beautiful job. Nothing fancy just straight forward restoration of what it is a workman's truck. :)

[@paulmlemay]

That's pretty darn nice. Pretty darn nice indeed.

[@robertpalamar4987]

Yes !!! Restore No unnecessary updates

[@henryostman5740]

good lookin' truck. love it! why the sad music in the beginning, this is a happy video.

[@GarageAuto]

sad music in the beginning, because it is sad to see it like that (abandoned), happy music in the end of video, because it is happy to see it like that (after the restoration)

Outstanding job! Never seen anything like this before. The truck probably become better than it was originally assembled. Wish I have anything like this in the future.

[@josebsoto5510]

Woo qué esquísites de trabajo: mis respetos para éstas personas que el Eterno les siga bendiciendo sus manos y sus ideas, cuanto quisiera yo, ya casi al final de mi vida aber tenido un Chevrolet de ésos años; siempre mí sueño fue tener un 1957 BelAir o una camioneta como ésa que aparece en el vídeo, wooo sólo me queda mirar y suspirar con par de lágrimas en los ojos y decir bueno Padre Celestial, sí no sé cumplió mí sueño de todas maneras gracias por qué soñar no cuesta nada jajaja.
