Paul Rest has affectionately named this 3100 “Gracie.” Gracie has made herself a part of the family.
“Here’s my 1949 Chevy 3100 “Gracie”, pretty much original, except upgraded 235 from original 216 and paint color, still 6 volt w/vacuum wipers. She spent her first 60 years in Lemont, Illinois with just 2 owners before coming to Pennsylvania in 2009… I adopted her a year ago and have given her much love! She’s a happy family member now, enjoying cruising the back roads of Western Pennsylvania just like it was 1949 again!”
