"1947 through 1955 was a special period for development of the Chevrolet Pickup. Post-war consumers demanded a little more from the utilitarian pickups that had been around for nearly 50 years. In 1947, Chevrolet introduced the ""Advance-Design"" styling for its trucks and demand took off! The first redesign since WWII, this truck hit the spot and has never slowed down.
Art & Speed is pleased to offer one of the rarest and most beautiful trucks remaining from this era. This 1951 3600 was purchased new and owned by one southern family for the better part of 70 YEARS! This truck has full documentation of its history, ownership chain, original purchase, and a family certified letter documenting the originality of the 24,046 original miles! The original Fathom Green Metallic paint was refinised some years ago, along with a new bench seat cover, but both look like they were completed yesterday. The original bed wood was replaced with Locust Wood by the original family and looks like new. This truck has clearly been carefully maintained in an in-door environment.
The original Thrift Mast 6-cylinder was removed, cleaned, refinished and reinstalled to showroom condition without the need for rebuild. In fact, this truck runs and drives as smooth and quietly as it did when delivered new.
This is one of those trucks you simply have to see and drive to believe. Beautiful chrome and details everywhere you look. But this one will go quickly. For more information, please call Art & Speed at 901-850-0507.

At Art & Speed, we believe that automobiles are more than just transportation. They are part of the "thrill ride" of life!
Maybe it was the car that carried you and that special person on your first date; or brought home your newborn baby. Perhaps a certain car brought father and son together in a project that created cherished memories through frustration, laughter and proud accomplishments. Maybe it was the object that created freedom and exhilaration from the growl of the big block engine, the smell of the interior and the fuel, the feeling of being one with the road. Perhaps it's all about the first time you saw your favorite car with it's sleek lines, wild colors, bold graphics, or elegant sense of beauty and artful design. The wind in your face and hair… The sensation of speed… And remember the family vacations? And, of course, none of us ever had our picture taken with our cars, right?
As adults, we have a passion for the "vehicles of our lives," the stories that they remind us of, the music that we hear when we see certain automobiles. Indeed, automobiles are woven into the tapestry of our lives, reminding us of simpler pleasures.
At Art & Speed, our goal is to help you relive those experiences and create new ones. Founded by Kevin Caffman and Barry Gilmore, Art & Speed delivers the vehicles, memorabilia and special events that strike passion, revive old memories, and allow us to share those events with our family and friends. And most importantly, Art & Speed will help you make new memories!
Art & Speed offers fine collectible automobiles, from original survivor to quality driver, show, and investment cars. We specialize in muscle cars, 50s and 60s classics, as well as modern performance, luxury and exotic cars.
Through our network of resources and professional restoration services, Art & Speed can also help you locate that special car you have been searching for or build the car of your dreams.
Art & Speed not only buys quality collector cars, but we also offer a consignment program for our clients who want to sell one car or a complete collection. Employing technology, we market your car to the broadest international audience possible. Art & Speed can also assist you in changing the composition of your current collection. We offer both buyer and seller agent services and can take your car to major auction events for maximum exposure.
Kevin has been a "car guy" since he was old enough to peer out the car windows, identifying every car by year, make and model. Over the years, he has built a reputation for building, owning and selling high quality collector cars. With a background in business, information technology and digital marketing, he has continued to pursue the art of classic automobiles as a hobby. After a successful career in the corporate world, Kevin decided to pursue his dream of owning and building a "different kind of business". Kevin sees vintage, classic and performance cars as an emotional interaction, merging the worlds of performance with the art of the automobile. Thus the vision for Art & Speed was born!
