THIS IS US! JIM CARTER TRUCK PARTS AT 45 YEARS

Thank you, thank you, for so many great customers like you that have helped our company reach our 45th Anniversary. We are so proud to have reached this milestone.
This is Jim Carter, I am still very active as when I started restoring my first pickup, a 1950 Chevy 1/2 ton and needed parts! It now sits in our Lobby!

Just a Few Extras:

3100 series

  1. Proper 3100 Hood Side Emblem

      During the Advance Design years no less than four different Chevrolet hood side emblems were used on 1/2 tons. Each of their two mounting pins are in the same place so the punched hood holes were unchanged during these years. All were chromed die cast even during the 1952-1953 Korean war chrome shortage. The following pictures show the correct...
  2. 1948 Chevrolet 3100

    Years ago when I lived in Washington State, I had a 1950 Chevrolet 3100 that I restored/rebuilt customized from the frame up. It was my hunting and fishing truck and I loved it. During a time when I was getting ready to build an addition to my house here in California, I got talked into selling my 50.
  3. 1950 Chevrolet

    This is the restored 1950 Chevy 1/2 ton, 3100 series, my grandfather bought to use on his farm. It now has just over 15K original miles with the factory Firestone's still on the truck. Everything is as it came from the dealer, with the exception of the wood in the bed, the exhaust system, and the paint.
  4. 1954 Chevrolet 3100

    I bought this very clean truck from a fellow in Spring, Texas who told me he had it in his garage for nine years. He tinkered with it until he got bored and it started taking up space. He said he bought it from a man in Alvin, Texas.
  5. 1950 Chevrolet 3100

    1950 Chevy 3100 deluxe cab, this truck was recently refinished by CSCC this spring. Paint custom Sikkens glacier blue pearl.
  6. 1948 Chevrolet

    I bought my 1948 Deluxe cab 3104 in 1995 and have done a complete on-frame "restification." Everything is stock appearing, but closer inspection will reveal the upgrades I have made in the name of safety and performance.
  7. 1955 Chevrolet First Series

    My truck is a 1955 Chevrolet 3100 First Series Deluxe Cab. My wife used to ride in this truck as a girl in the late 1950’s. It belonged to her neighbor, the original owner. That neighbor drove it for years, and then sold it to another neighbor who used in on his farm for years. Then it was parked by the creek for about five years before I spotted it while on a Sunday drive in 1992.
  8. 1951 Chevrolet 3100

    This 1951 Chevrolet 3100 has been in our family since my dad bought it new in 1951 in Wooster, Ohio. It has a 216 cu. in. motor, four speed transmission, original radio, that still plays, the original bill of sale and spec. sheet.
  9. 1950 Chevrolet 3100

    This is my 1950 Chevrolet 3100 Series pickup truck. I bought it around seven years ago for a measly $800.00. It was in decent shape.
