Professionally built by “The Hot Rod Garage” (HRG) of Denton, MD, this 1949 Chevrolet 3100 pickup will not disappoint anyone looking to own a high quality, eye-catching, reliable, and FAST mode of transportation to go cruising or take across the country. The pickup will also be appearing as a feature article in a future issue of Classic Truck magazine.
HRG started with a stock rust free body and frame and then custom made every other component that went into this Moss Green ride. No expense was spared in building this truck, and the receipts are included to prove it. It was completed in 2013 and has logged 18,000 miles on the odometer. Always well maintained and garage kept.
The 500+ horsepower 383 c.i. small block Chevrolet (dyno sheets included) built by Pro-Formance of Asbury Park, N.J. never misses a beat and is backed by a 700R4 transmission built by the FLA based Monster Transmissions. All of that power is transmitted to the pavement with a 9” Ford rear, using a Posi unit, Richmond 4.10:1 gears and Cal-Trac’s traction system.
Everything works from the Vintage Air A/C and Kenwood stereo to the power rack and pinion steering. Power brakes (disc front, drum rear)
Owner is selling to build a new project.

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 15 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 7 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
