Vehicle Description
Everything about this 1954 Chevrolet 3100 five-window is bold. From
the screaming yellow paint, to how low that air ride suspension
gets, to the growl of the modern fuel-injected V8 - everyone
instantly knows this is a something special. As you dig into the
details, you'll find great cruising elements, too, on this fresh
build.
This Chevy just gets cooler the longer you look at it. There's only
70 miles on this whole build, and so the yellow paint is so fresh
that it has show-worthy shine. Plus, this tall truck has a huge
silver chrome streak with pieces like its wraparound bumpers and
legendary five-bar grille that stand out like a pristine art deco
skyscraper. Plus, the sunshade, side step plates, and desirable
five-window cab really nail the best vintage elements from the
3100-series. We know you'll love taking this to car shows where you
get to watch their jaws drop to the ground at the same time you
lower the air suspension right down to the ground. In fact, to fit
the larger wheels, gas tank, and other components under the lowered
suspension, the truck bed had to be custom raised. It's a cool
custom trick that most people won't notice right away because
they're too busy just marveling at the real wood bed and 18-inch
Ridler gray wheels.
The custom interior perfectly mixes original style with modern
components. The bold exterior yellow returns on the dash and door
trim, but now it's joined by plenty of black to get the right
performance feeling. The upgraded seats now have modern bolstering
and a cup holder center console for true long-haul comfort. There's
also plenty of insulation with the matching black door panels, full
carpeting, and headliner. This was built with the driver in mind,
including grippy custom sports steering wheel on the chrome tilt
column. Beyond that is a full set of upgraded Shark gauges. Plus,
you're within easy reach of the air ride suspension controls, Lokar
shifter, and upgraded AM/FM stereo with aux input and digital
tuner.
You're going to be showing this one off to plenty of people, and so
you're also going to love lifting the hood. After all, not only
does it look great in its black and chrome presentation, but also
few will be expecting a modern V8 powerplant. The 5.3-liter Vortec
V8 is a great way to get fuel-injected muscle while remaining
faithful to bow tie power. To get the most out of this modern V8, a
modern four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly
overdrive was added. Plus, you get great anytime driving features
like power steering, power brakes with discs up front, and the
modern low profile tires. More than just a good cruiser, you also
get some nice performance upgrades, too. The exhaust has a throaty
rumble to match the upgraded motor; the front suspension has been
upgraded to a Mustang II-style independent unit; and the rear
suspension has been fortified for extra power.
This is an award-worthy and fresh custom build that's also easy to
drive to shows near or far. Such nicely finished vehicles like this
rarely leave their makers, so you know you need to hurry if you
want to take this one home. Call today!!!
