1956 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod

Description

With slick red paint, a custom/comfy interior, and strong small block V8 power, this 1956 Chevrolet 3100 pickup knows how to make a great custom classic first impression Plus, as you dig a little deeper, you're also going to discover some fun details like the air ride front end and exhaust cutouts.

This truck is a true cruiser. What does that mean? It's the kind of classic pickup that looks and feels good out on the road. You're not going to get a first prize at the kind of car shows that take place on manicured lawns, but we bet you're not that kind of person. Instead, this truck is for those who like to spend all weekend driving where coffee breaks are done at the local parking lot gatherings. And you'll see jaws drop at every stoplight where people think a special truck like this is off to somewhere special (even if you're just going out for milk.) Bright red paint, even brighter chrome bumpers, a clean grille, and glossy real wood in the truck bed are all part of what makes this envious impression. The sleeker style from deleted badging, blue-dot tail lights, and upgraded 18-inch wheels give it a true custom attitude. Plus, the front end is on airbags that allow you to dial-in a cool forward-leaning stance whenever you want.

The exterior red returns inside on the door tops and extra-smooth dash, and now it's joined by an attractive gray. In fact, this gray really sets apart the inside with its thoughtful style. Both the soft tweed seat and good gray carpeting have darker gray piping. This hint of two-tone is used to showcase the custom door panels and give this interior a uniform feel. Details like the plushness of the upgraded seat, door panel armrests, and an AM/FM/CD stereo with USB are all part of that true cruiser attitude. And you'll also appreciate driver upgrades like the tilt steering column and well-paced Moon auxiliary readouts. There's even a cool look with how the upgraded steering wheel coordinates with the exterior alloys.

The engine bay gives you more of that cool custom style. After all, smooth polished inner walls really know how to showcase the V8 heart. And while this whole setup is quite tidy, you're also looking at a powerful heart. This 350 cubic-inch small black is enhanced with a Holley four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock Performer intake, and a nice set of headers. As a true cruiser, there are also good supporting components like an aluminum radiator, HEI ignition, and steel braided lines with AN fittings. But we bet your favorite upgrade is the exhaust. You get to choose between letting this exhale through Flowmaster mufflers, or engaging the cutouts for a solid V8 rumble. Add in a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, and Wilwood front discs, and you have a fun and easy cruising nature.

The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and title documentation. This is the truck where you show up to cars & coffee, and they'll likely let you take up two spaces because of the crowd that gathers when you drop the front end low and pop the hood so everyone can get a full view inside. It's the kind of custom Chevy that you'll love to drive and get noticed when doing it. Call today!!!
