A fantastic custom total presentation, an upgraded interior, and a powerful V8 heart... this restored 1951 Chevrolet 3100 5-window is truly the best of everything, and it's ready to roll right now.
This might be an iconic 5-window pickup, but it has a look all of its own. The vintage elements like the windshield visor and spotlight are combined with a smoother appearance from where the trim pieces were expertly removed. Of course, it also helps that it has been applied over some of the straightest bodywork around. So now it has a modern color and a modern appearance on this vintage sheetmetal and the result is instantly memorable. But what will really have people talking is all the brightwork up front. You can tell there was a solid investment to get the iconic grille so brilliant. The headlights and bumper match this level of shine, too. Plus, with elements like the 15-inch Ansen Sprint alloy wheels and runners in the real wood truck bed also shining so brightly, this is an all-around stunner.
You instantly see plenty of investment when you open the door. The bucket seats have the kind of comfort that you couldn't even dream of in the '50s. Plus, the gold and tan two-tone sets off a well-coordinated package you see on the door panels, headliner, and carpeting. The dash has been smoothed over for a great custom appearance. So now all your useful features are housed in the upgraded center console. This includes the cup holders, auxiliary gauges, and the AM/FM/CD stereo w/aux input. A later Chevy steering wheel on a tilt column now gives you an excellent view of the classic gauge package.
Just like the rest of the truck, the engine bay has a smooth presentation with plenty of upgrades. The small block V8 has all the right flair within the bright fender walls thanks to polished components like the valve covers. But what really steals the show are all the fresh dark components against the yellow. More than look nice, this 327 cubic-inch V8 is part of a performance build that includes an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Weiand intake, and headers that feed a rumbling dual exhaust. Beyond just a performance, this is a thoughtful all-around driver. That's why it has great upgrades like the three-speed automatic transmission and aluminum radiator with electric fan. Plus, the upgraded independent front suspension, thick sway bar, power steering, and four-wheel disc brakes are features that are welcomed in all conditions.
This is a great unique vintage package that's also easy to drive anywhere. It's everything you want, and it's turn-key ready for the first person to grab this deal. Call today!!!
