DESCRIPTION
1939 Chevrolet JD Pickup Truck For Sale - Restored Maroon with Black Fenders | 235 ci Inline-6 | 3-Speed Manual
Route 61 Classics proudly presents this beautifully restored 1939 Chevrolet JD Pickup Truck for sale, finished in elegant Maroon with Black fenders and showing only 1,300 miles since restoration. Combining pre-war Chevrolet styling with tasteful mechanical upgrades, this truck offers both vintage charm and reliable drivability.
Performance & Mechanical
Under the hood lies an upgraded 235 cubic-inch \"Thriftmaster\" Inline-Six, producing around 135 horsepower - a significant improvement over the original 216 ci engine. Power is sent through a 3-speed floor-shift manual transmission to a full-floating rear axle, delivering smooth, easy operation around town or on the show circuit.
Braking is handled by upgraded hydraulic drum brakes with a dual-reservoir master cylinder, adding confidence and safety to every drive.
Exterior
Finished in rich Maroon with contrasting Black fenders and running boards, this Chevrolet JD presents beautifully. The paint shows excellent depth and gloss, while the chrome bumpers, vertical-bar grille, and period Chevrolet badging shine brightly. A refinished oak bed floor with stainless strips adds authentic style and detail, and dual taillights and factory-style hubcaps complete the truck\'s art-deco aesthetic.
Interior
Inside, the cab retains its simple and elegant 1930s layout, featuring black vinyl bench seating, paint-matched door panels, and a restored dash with period-correct gauges. The three-spoke steering wheel and floor shifter maintain authentic driving feel, while the Deluxe heater option adds a touch of comfort rare for the era.
Driving Experience
The truck starts easily and runs smoothly, with a quiet idle and strong low-end torque. The 3-speed manual shifts cleanly, and the upgraded brakes inspire confidence on modern roads. With only 1,300 miles since its restoration, it\'s fully sorted and ready for cruise-ins or display.
Summary
This 1939 Chevrolet JD Pickup offers a perfect blend of authenticity and modernized usability. From its upgraded 235 Thriftmaster engine to its beautifully restored wood bed and factory-style details, it\'s a show-ready truck that drives as good as it looks.
