A true blend of classic design and modern engineering, this 1950 Chevrolet 3600 5-Window Pickup is now available on Bring a Trailer, offering collectors and enthusiasts a compelling restomod that stands out in both style and substance. Finished in a striking Copper Metallic over black leather, this expertly restored truck—VIN 3HRB2914—has traveled just 115 miles since its comprehensive build.
Under the hood, a robust 350ci V8 paired with a four-speed 700R4 automatic transmission delivers contemporary power, while a Mustang II-style front suspension, rack-and-pinion steering, and power-assisted disc brakes ensure confident, modern road manners. The staggered 18" and 20" American Racing wheels, wrapped in Nitto NT555 G2 tires, provide a purposeful stance that complements the period-correct yet refreshed aesthetic.
Inside, the cab is appointed with black leather upholstery, billet accents, and a host of comfort upgrades—including Vintage Air climate control, power windows, and a JVC CD stereo—creating a refined environment that pays homage to the truck’s heritage while catering to modern expectations. The wood-plank cargo bed, chrome grille and bumpers, and curved rear quarter windows further showcase the attention to detail throughout the build.
For collectors, this 3600’s appeal lies in its harmonious balance of preservation and innovation. The five-window cab and copper finish evoke Chevrolet’s postwar golden era, while the performance upgrades and comfort features make it equally enjoyable for weekend cruises or local shows. With provenance as a specially constructed example and its current presentation, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a turnkey American classic that’s ready for the next chapter.
This meticulously modified 1950 Chevrolet 3600 5-Window Pickup is now live on Bring a Trailer. Place your bid or follow the auction for a rare chance to own a standout restomod that bridges eras of American truck culture.
