This catalogue entry records a 1955 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup in red, a pickup, from the 1950s.

1950s on screen
An ordinary parked car can support a period neighbourhood without suggesting anything exceptional about its occupant, leaving character details to the writing and performance. A station pickup can give a period car a practical purpose, using luggage and waiting passengers to tell the audience what the journey is for. Weekend travel works well as an assembly of people and belongings, allowing a journey to be understood without showing a long stretch of open road.
Possible roles in a production
Visible company lettering on a pickup should be chosen for the production and cleared separately, especially when a commercial shot holds on the side. A pickup can support a worksite arrival, with tools and carried materials selected for the fictional trade rather than added as generic decoration. Costume references should belong to the character and date, avoiding a broad assumption that an American vehicle calls for the same clothes in every scene.

Questions about this car
Can I hire this 1955 Chevrolet 3100 in red for filming?
Mention this Chevrolet 3100 when sending the shoot details, especially the dates, location and planned action, so any option offered can be checked for those requirements.
Is the photo of this exact car?
Treat the Chevrolet 3100 image as a reference for the model, not a picture of this exact car; the actual vehicle and its colour are confirmed separately.
What if this Chevrolet 3100 isn't available?
The model selection contains 11 Chevrolet 3100s, but a suitable alternative might come from 119 Chevrolet vehicles or 145 cars from the 1950s; catalogue inclusion does not confirm availability.

Moving the Chevrolet 3100 during filming needs its own arrangements, not an assumption based on the photo: the owner, insurance, shot, transport and driver details are checked through the brief.
