For Sale: 1951 Chevrolet 3100 in O'Fallon, Illinois

Gateway classic cars of Nashville is very proud to digitally present to you this 1951 Chevrolet 3100 pickup. This sweet custom 3100 comes with a list of awards including C10 Nationals in Nashville truck of the year in 2021 and runner up in the same show in 2022. Now with most customs it is easy to see all the trick work that went into the build, but with this truck you could look for days and find new and inventive custom work. At first glance most will notice the slick Black Sapphire paint and stance but everywhere you look this truck has hours of thought and work in it. Nothing was left as is and good enough was not part of the vocabulary with the craftsmen who put blood sweat and I am sure tears into this project. Lets start with the frame, an S10 front clip was used to provide the front suspension and steering while the back half is pure custom. Slam specialties was the choice for the air ride system. The floor of the bed is electrical raised to access the fuel and air tanks. The choice of power for this Chevy 3100 is of course the LS based 6.0 liter that is fed fuel and air via a custom fabricated intake with a 92 millimeter throttle body, JEG's fuel rails and AN braided lines for fuel, power steering and even trans cooler lines. Sanderson shorty headers complete the look and performance. The trans of choice is a 4L80E so highway driving will not be a problem. The interior of this truck is amazing and almost completely custom using Bourbon pearl vinyl. The look is amazing, the ride smooth and power readily available with a touch of the right pedal the only draw back is that you have to be careful when loading gravel in the bed, joking this truck can haul a lot of things but I would never put gravel in this bed.

(truck of the year) include: Air conditioning, Power steering, brakes and windows, Tilt steering wheel, Blue tooth stereo, Seat belts, Radial tires and chrome rocket booster rims20X9 in front and 20X10 in rear.
