1956 Chevrolet 3100 Resto Mod Pickup Truck Why This Car Is Special
Early in the 50's the Chevrolet Task Force trucks were built as
work trucks and they ran from late 1955 through 1959. In 1956 they
had a wider hood emblem, two-piece fender emblems that were mounted
above horizontal fender line, and it was the last year for egg
crate grille. What we would like to show you at Skyway Classics is
a restored and Resto modified version of a 1956 Chevrolet 3100
truck. It is a beauty and has been upgraded with many features like
the LS engine and transmission, with the beautifully restored body
painted in red, a new custom interior, aftermarket chrome wheels
and performance red line tires. Features 1956 Chevrolet 3100 Resto

system, chrome dual exhaust, and the LS engine�€�s power goes to
the automatic transmission as it rides on redline tires and
aftermarket chrome wheels. Interior The complete custom interior

red factory dash with performance gauges, stereo radio, chrome tilt
steering column and custom billet steering wheel, air conditioning,
red seat belts, black carpeting and floor mats. It looks and feels
right in this vintage truck but also has the 21st century feel.
Exterior Our 56 is painted in a deep and flashy red flowing over
the 3100�€�s lines and this pickup represents the first of the
pickups that were actually styled by designers rather than merely
engineered. As a result, they carry a lot of automotive-inspired
design cues, so if you see a little bit of Shoebox Chevy in the
design, the coincidence is purely intentional. The paint is in
excellent condition and this truck gets a ton of attention anywhere
you go. It took 6 gallons of PPG Victory Red and 5 gallons of Clear
Coat to paint it! Enhancing the upscale look is the chrome bumpers,
restored grille, step-side bed, chrome mirrors, red painted inside
bed rails, wood bed floor with slats trimming it, and the iconic
rear tailgate with the Chevrolet logo on it. When they built this
1956 Chevrolet 3100 show piece they clearly focused on making it
right and they've definitely succeeded in a very big way. This
truck is very, very nice! Conclusion This 1956 Chevrolet 3100 Rest
Mod pickup at Skyway Classics is truly a show truck and could win
Best Of Show anywhere. Do not miss out on buying this truck by not
coming here to see it! This is a no-compromises truck built to very
high standards with a cost of over $165k to build, an
