They should put the photo's you have in the tech section. Someone restoring a chevy can see what it looked like new. Very well done , thanks for the input.

Still trying to get ole Betsy back on the road.

After watching the filmstrip, my future purchase will be a Chevrolet 3100 Series Truck.

Beware of Brad Allen's filmstrip galleries- They are addictive & end up being very time consuming.
BUT, so is scanning them in for everybody, and they're always worth it, so hats off to another good one, Brad!
I like the subtle smack-talking in the advertisements; and I've never seen that tailgate comparison.

That would make 30,000 or so pictures ultimately on my Flikr page! | | | | | Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 170 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jun 2010 Posts: 170 | Thank you much for sharing these - they are great! | | | | | Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 362 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jul 2014 Posts: 362 | I should show the filmstrip photos to my fiancee's dad. He has a '50 F-1, and I have a '50 3100.
It would be all in good fun, of course, because he knows I've wanted his F-1 BAAAAAD for a while before I got my Chevy. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 155 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 155 | Great series Brad Allen. We already knew the Advanced Design Chevy was far more a work of art than the homely Ford of the day, and now we know the many ways the Chevy was more technically advanced as well.
