This 1953 Chevrolet 3100 pickup sports a serene light blue finish,
carrying its history from being bought from the original owner in
California in 1985. Maintaining its integrity, the truck boasts all
original sheet metal without a hint of rust, a testament to its
preservation. In 1986, the pickup was given new life with a
restoration that included a '69 Camaro subframe installation by
Peterson Engineering, adding modern touches like front disc brakes
and power steering. It's powered by a 283 V8 engine, enhanced with
a 260 comp cam, roller rockers, a steel crank, an aluminum 4-barrel
carburetor, and double bump heads for improved performance. The
drive is completed by a 1966 12-bolt Posi rear end with 4.11 gears,
striking a balance between classic charm and driving dynamics.
After a cross-country journey, the truck made its way to Erie, PA
in 1997, where it continues to be a cherished piece of automotive
legacy.
