Vehicle Description
This 1951 Chevrolet 3100 Suburban Carryall has been upgraded with a
two-tone look, V8 power, and an A/C interior. And yet, it still
never loses that distinctive vintage flair that makes it so
attractive.
You already know Chevy's Advanced Design pickups are red hot right
now because of their iconic style. The Art Deco grille, alligator
hood, two-piece windshield, and rounded fenders make this instantly
recognizable, just like the iconic 3100-series trucks. But while
there are plenty of pickups are on the classic scene, we rarely lay
eyes on a Suburban Carryall - especially one as custom as this.
There was a full restoration only a few years ago that's said to
have started with a solid California vehicle. They took the
expertly resprayed the correct Spectramaster Green on the bottom,
and then added Cool Vanilla on the top half to make this a true
sweet treat. And with less than 750 miles on this build since
completion, it retains that vibrant and fresh look. This has a
terrific classic style with new stainless, correct badging, and
doors that close with confidence. And while they gray bumpers
coordinate with the torque thrust style alloys, that wide and
modern wheel/tire package signal this is more than just a vintage
machine.
Inside is a well-done package that nicely mixes plenty of upgrades
with some classic style. For example, you still have the vintage
Chevrolet dash, and now it's full of crisp Dolphin gauges. The
classic three-spoke steering wheel it far more comfortable now that
it's on a tilt column. The tasteful tan seating goes well with the
gray on the dash, sides, and interior trim. Plus, you can just tell
that upholstery is far more comfortable than anything that came out
of the 1950s. And speaking of comfort, this classic Chevy now keeps
everyone cool with cold-blowing air conditioning. There are even
nice small details that make the difference, like new tempered
glass and window seals. This Carryall lives up to its name with
plenty of room behind the back seat, and don't forget that those
rear barn door swing wide to makes this great for cargo carrying or
just tailgating.
Under the hood are more great upgrades. The restoration took the
time to make the engine bay extra tidy. So you can really see
custom pieces, like the color-matched classic Cadillac air grabber.
More than just style, this one has the right substance. This
Suburban was built before Chevy's mighty small block V8 era, but
now this has been upgraded to a 350 cubic-inch unit. A Holley
four-barrel carburetor w/electric choke means a quick start up and
inhaling deeply. Plus, the headers mean exhaling with added power
with feeding the new stainless exhaust. It's a package that's ready
to hit the road. That's why it also has nice driving features like
rack & pinion power steering, power brakes w/discs up front, and a
three-speed automatic transmission. And as you check out the fresh
undercarriage, you'll also spot the upgraded independent front
suspension with tubular arms and adjustable coilovers. They make
the for a much more enjoyable experience going down the road.
You get rarity and distinction in a restored package built for
cruising. So you know you don't want to let this Suburban slip
away. Call today!!!
