1952 Chevrolet Other Pickups 5 Window Restomod Additional Info:
Confidence is cool, and patina shows a self-assurance that's becoming red-hot right now. But joining this crowd doesn't have to mean giving up creature comforts. Although this truck may look like it sat in a field for 30 years, this unique 1952 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod is quite a fresh build with all your favorite amenities. So beyond the rugged workman appearance hides a leather-lined A/C interior, upgraded suspension, overdrive transmission, and a terrific fuel-injected LS V8 heart.
This is a genuine patina'd body, which is always going to get you instant credibility wherever you go. You can tell there was plenty of time that went into an attractive and authentic look. The windshield sunshade, full-length running boards, and Sandman company graphics on the doors all give this a cool workman charm. But it's not the classic pieces that really set this one apart. Those large 20-inch Ridler wheels that are so nicely tucked under the bodywork are a nice hint to all the performance updates beneath the skin. Of course, if you really want to know what's going on under the hood, they also installed a window so everyone gets a great view.
When you open the door, the full nature of this build starts to be revealed. They invested over $42,000 in this Chevy, and that was only about 6,500 miles ago. So while the exterior is purposely rugged, the interior is deliberately luxurious. The new gaskets and smooth action of the door have a feeling of quality, and it's you gateway to an absolutely comfortable custom setup. It's a sea of well-coordinated brown and tan this starts with the modern TMI leather seat. It has an intricate pattern, modern bolstering, and a fold-down center armrest. The custom door panels and carpeting have even been done to match. There's plenty more luxury upgrades, including cold-blowing R134a air conditioning and a Kenwood AM/FM/CD/DVD/XM touchscreen interface with Bluetooth. The steering wheel is even wrapped to match the interior, and it's mounted on a tilt column. And this gives you a clear view to the color-matched upgraded gauge package.
There's a big reason for the window on the hood. Everyone is going to want to get a peek at the modern heart in this patina pickup. The engine bay is filled with a fuel-injected LS1 V8, and it looks tidy enough to have been there since day one. Plus, this motor has been further upgraded with an aftermarket aluminum intake, 102 mm throttle body, and custom air intake. And more than just a big power upgrade, this one is made to be a true driver. That's why you have everything from an aluminum radiator to a 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly overdrive. The chassis is a more modern S10 unit that includes an independent front end. Plus, power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and modern performance tires delivers a true street machine that's easy to enjoy.
This is your chance at something powerful, unique, comfortable, and all-around awesome. Don't miss out, call today!
