Vehicle Description
This 1947 Chevrolet 3100 5-window takes the smooth lines of GM's
Advance Design pickup and gives it a hardy dose of modern
sleekness. And while this classic is irresistible to show off,
great upgrades like the powerful V8, overdrive transmission, and
custom/comfy leather make it irresistible to drive, too.
Twilight Royal Plum is the name of the paint that makes an instant
impression. This was built to be a show truck, and that was only
about a decade ago. So while this one has been driven over the last
decade, it's far from a daily grind machine. That's why there's a
vibrancy that lasts from a quality application of the metallic
paint. The striking look also comes from the way it utilizes the
purple on areas like the bumper, grille, and even the slats between
the lumber in the truck bed. Custom blue pinstriping, lowered
stance, 15-inch polished alloys, and more all come together to give
you a detail-oriented classic.
The desirable five-window cab means you also let in more light to
show off this exceptional custom interior. The supple tan leather
has a fresh and detailed look, including the diamond stitch inserts
on the seats that also match the doors. It's an appearance like a
top-of-the-line modern truck, and so the interior is award-worthy
all on its own (we're even told this took home a World of Wheels
honors in 2012.) It's also quite comfortable with the individual
bucket seats, cup holder console, and an AM/FM stereo with USB and
Bluetooth. This even has provisions for air conditioning (it will
need servicing to function again.) The wood-rimmed sports steering
wheel is on a tilt column, and so you get a great view to the crisp
factory-style gauge package.
With a build so awesome thus far, you know they made sure the
engine bay would attract a crowd, too. The color-matched
ultra-smooth firewall and inner fenders really funnel all your
attention to the V8 power within. You can also tell they spent a
small fortune on color-matched and polished components alone. And
when you look beyond the style you'll see the substance of a 350
cubic-inch motor with a four-barrel carburetor on top. It's a
strong V8 that makes a nice tune out of the glasspack-style dual
exhaust. This is truly a fine driver, right down to the four-speed
automatic w/overdrive. Add in the upgraded independent front end,
power steering, and power brakes with front discs, it's easy to
enjoy this custom pickup near or far.
Here's that ideal pickup that nicely blends vintage and new style
into one custom build. So don't let this deal slip away, call
today!
