This 1952 Chevrolet 3600 pickup is finished in blue over brown and powered by a 216ci inline-six paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Features include a two-piece windshield, a wood-lined bed, running boards, 16″ painted steel wheels with chrome hubcaps, fender-mounted turn indicators, PerTronix electronic ignition, an Optima 6-volt battery, and a cabin heater and defroster. The truck was acquired by the seller in 2010, and subsequent work consisted of replacing the cab floor and corners, bumpers, wood-lined bed, glass and rubber seals, interior components, wiring, fuel system, ignition system, powertrain mounts, brakes, and suspension. This truck is offered with service records and Connecticut registration.

The truck is finished in faded blue paint with areas of patina on the cab, bed, and fenders. Features include painted bumpers, a wood-lined bed, body-colored fenders, running boards, a two-piece windshield, fender-mounted turn indicators, dual mirrors, and a single rear window. A clear coat finish was applied to the faded paint. There is a rust hole in the bedside upright. The wood bed and painted bumpers are said to have been replaced during current ownership.

The painted 16″ wheels wear chrome Chevrolet branded hubcaps and are mounted with two types of Uniroyal Tiger Paw radial tires. Braking is handled by hydraulic drums at all four corners. The master cylinder, wheel cylinders, brake shoes, stainless brake lines, shock absorbers, king pins, and spring shackle bushings were replaced during current ownership.

The cabin features a bench seat reupholstered in brown vinyl joined by color-coordinated door panels with armrests. Equipment includes a painted steel dashboard, a cabin heater and defroster, a glovebox, a rubber floor covering, and crank windows. The cab floor, wiring harness, windows, rubber seals, regulators, headliner, sun visors, door panels and sills, and pedals were reportedly replaced during current ownership.

The three-spoke steering wheel frames a 90-mph speedometer and a combination gauge for fuel level, coolant temperature, amperage, and oil pressure. The five-digit odometer shows 51k miles, 500 of which were added by the seller. Total mileage is unknown. The steering wheel was refurbished in 2022.

The 216ci inline-six breathes through a single downdraft carburetor and features a PerTronix electronic ignition, an electric fuel pump, and a high-voltage coil. The fuel system was replaced and the carburetor and starter were rebuilt during current ownership. The truck retains a 6-volt charging system with an Optima battery. The oil and coolant were changed, and the valves were adjusted in preparation for sale.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission. The throw-out bearing, torque tube seal, carrier bearing, engine and transmission mounts, u-joints, and rear axle seals are said to have been replaced during current ownership. Corrosion is visible on the frame.

The truck does not have a title, as it is registered in a state that does not issue titles for a vehicle of its age. It is being offered on Connecticut registration.
