Vehicle Description
This restored 1953 Chevrolet 3100 really hits all the right marks
for those who love a distinct classic that's truly made to enjoy.
After all, you have the vintage Chevy design done in a vibrant red,
and this is even a desirable 5-window cab. But it also has the V8
power, upgraded suspension, and overdrive transmission to make it
quite a nice cruiser in modern times.
Red is a color that always looks good on classic machines. But this
is an upgrade that shows its freshness. In fact, there's only about
3k miles on the whole build. This one loves to show a balance of
vintage and modern. So that red paint has a deep luster to help
highlight the classic all-steel body even more. And a solid
investment in the brightwork means the chrome bumpers and grille
are positively radiant. We also like how the black sunshade goes
with the black running boards. You'll find thoughtful details all
over this truck, including a gas can in the bed that's really a
toolbox. Some of the upgrades are subtle, like the gas filler cap
in the bed. Others are quite obvious, like the 17-inch Ridler
wheels on the lowered stance. And one of the coolest ways this
mixes vintage and modern is how there's still a side-mounted spare
tire, but it's now the modern alloy.
The five-window cab also means it lets in extra light for you to
see the restored interior. The investments here continue the ideal
of classic and upgraded. You have a smooth feel to the vintage
dual-spoke steering wheel and a fresh cover to the bench seat.
There are well-integrated upgrades like seatbelts and carpeting.
The sale even comes with components if you want to add air
conditioning. And the upgraded shifter, tilt steering column, and
crisp Dolphin gauges make for an easy cruiser.
The engine bay has the look of a well-done powerhouse. You have
clean inner fenders, matching black Chevy valve covers, a hot rod
Caddy air grabber, and a tidy overall look of care. Even the
fundamentals like belts, hoses, and wires have a look of quality.
This 350 cubic-inch V8 inhales deeper with a Holley four-barrel
carburetor and Edelbrock intake. And the Champion aluminum radiator
will help keep everything running cool even when you are in
traffic. This all makes for the kind of pickup you'll want to
drive, and the upgraded 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission
w/overdrive lets you enjoy it near or fan in comfort. Plus,
features like the tubular A-arm front end, new shocks, front disc
brakes, and wide modern sports tires give this an overall solid
cruising attitude.
The sale comes complete with build receipts and maintenance
records. This Chevy loves to blend classic style with modern
upgrades to make sure you can use it and enjoy this desirable
5-window pickup to the fullest. Call today!!!
