Classic Truck Shop - The Double Deuce

The Double Deuce Our 1948 Chevrolet Truck Thrift Master Model 3100 Total frame off restoration started in 2002. Completed in 2003. All parts were sand blasted and no bondo was used in the restore. The paint color is Regal Turquoise 552 563. The truck is powered by a Pontiac 301 V8 engine from a late model car. Also added was the three speed auto transmission with a Locar shifter and a GM 10 bolt rear end with highway gears from the same car. The truck will cruise down the Freeway at 70 mph and is very comfortable to drive. All of the brakes, emergency brake, pedals, steering column came from a GM car. American 5 slot wheels with 60 series tires were added for looks and comfort. All the dash gauges have been replaced and a custom auto sound stereo was added. The heater has been totally rebuilt and updated. All electrical was changed to 12 Volt. Turn signals, were added and all lights changed to 12 volt. The firewall was replaced with a smooth no hole wall. Everything on the bed was replaced including the tailgate, sides, front, wood etc. The custom painted striping was done by Lenny in Las Vegas. We feel the truck is not over done but tastefully detailed and finished for comfort. Jerry and Mary
