Vehicle Description
Advanced Design Chevy trucks seem to be one of the hottest vintage
pickups going because they combine an upright tough appearance with
some of the sleek lines that make other GM products iconic in the
'50s. So we're always excited to have a 1950 Chevrolet 3100
5-window truck like this one that blends old style with new
amenities like cold-blowing A/C, an overdrive transmission,
four-wheel disc brakes, fuel injection, and more.
This truck is going for a shiny first impression. The Green Pearl
paint has the kind of luster that comes from a modern clearcoat on
a thoughtful total build. The deeper shine highlights some of the
best elements of the exterior, like the hood, full-length step
rails, and curvaceous fenders. And there's plenty more shine coming
from the chrome elements like the bumper, badging, and the iconic
five-slat grille that looks like an Art Deco skyscraper. There are
terrific custom details, like the wide side-exit exhaust tips,
smooth roll pan, and green LED under the truck for terrific night
ground effects. But the piece that announces the truck's custom
work the best are the large 22-inch American Racing alloys that
expertly tuck into the lowered suspension. In fact, you can even
see how the bed was customized to accommodate the new stance while
still keeping its useful pickup appeal.
The desirable five-window cab reminds you there are still hints of
old-school charm left in this completely custom interior. The great
green from the exterior returns. Now it's joined by a tasteful tan
on the custom bucket seats, door panels, and center console with
very handy cup holders. The Grant GT steering wheel is on a tilt
column so you get a great view of all the upgrades. You're going to
love looking at the large Jegs speedo and tach that fit in the
pickup's original dual pod layout, and the SunPro auxiliary gauges
just below it keep you informed about what's going on under the
hood. Plus, your right hand will probably never leave the Lokar
shifter. But since this has a passenger seat, there is plenty to
keep you both happy, such as the upgrade to an AM/FM/CD stereo with
iPod hookup and the ice-cold R134a air conditioning.
Under the hood is a 350 cubic-inch V8 upgrade that's built with the
upgrades you really want. It includes AFR aluminum heads, a Pro
Comp aluminum intake, an MSD digital ignition, and Hedman shorty
headers. That last component also contributes to the rumble of the
dual side pipes that exit just below your ears for maximum
machismo. Plus, there was a more recent upgrade to an MSD Atomic
fuel-injection system that comes with a controller to help you
dial-in your ideal performance. And that's the right way to look at
this pickup, there are terrific elements already in place for a
great driver, and you can take some extra time to create the ideal
diving experience you want. After all, this comes with nice
cruising features like a four-speed automatic transmission with
overdrive, power steering, and four-wheel power disc brakes.
The sale comes complete with restoration photos and two folders of
build receipts. This is the classic five-window Chevy with a ton of
modern appeal. Call today!!!
