For Sale: 1956 Chevrolet 3100 in Volo, Illinois

Vehicle Description

This big window truck is a looker! The bright red and subtle body mods sitting on a good looking set of wheels with the right stance is just right. It's more than a pretty face, drive it anywhere. Reliable GM crate motor, some air conditioning and upgraded brakes and steering will make any drive a pleasure.

EXTERIOR: Desirable big window cab with a Fleetside shortbed. All the emblems were removed, hood was shaved for a clean look. Upfront is a smaller, smoothed custom bumper. In back is a custom tailgate and removed bumper with a roll pan in its place. Upgraded electric wipers. LED halo headlights and LED taillights. All the glass has a subtle tint. It's rolling on a set on good looking 15 inch American Racing wheels wrapped in BFG tires, fatter in back.

INTERIOR: It's a comfortable interior with a custom contoured seat and a tilt wheel. It has air conditioning and a retro stereo with 4 speakers to make it even that much more enjoyable. The dash is painted gloss red, the good-looking gauges are set in a billet bezel. The custom wheel is mounted on a polished column which is also supporting a Moon tachometer. The door panels, headliner and visors are upholstered to match the seat. There is sound deadener under the carpet.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Very smooth, clutter free engine bay painted slick red. Where's all the hoses and wires? At the center of it all is a GM crate 350 HO with a lot of polished components. It is churning out 330 hp and 380 lbs of torque. On top is an Endurashine intake, Holley carb, MSD ignition and chrome valve covers. The brackets, alternator and pulleys are polished. Even the cooling system has an aluminum radiator with stainless hose, polished fan shroud and water pump. It features air conditioning and yes, the compressor is polished. It also features power steering. A slick set of billet hinges looks and functions great.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Inside the metal is smooth and straight with a gloss red finish. Down on the floor is refinished wood and a Corvette fuel door.

UNDERSIDE: Upfront was upgraded with a Camaro subframe and all the suspension and steering were rebuilt when this was installed. In back the shocks, lowering leaf springs and traction bars were replaced. The brake system was completely upgraded with disc at all 4 wheels. A custom exhaust was installed with a crossover pipe and Magnaflow mufflers. The custom fuel tank was relocated under the truck and is polished. Looking up at the motor it is very clean and has a new starter and chrome flywheel cover. The trans is upgraded with a 700R-4 automatic with overdrive for easy cruising. It has a remote oil cooler. In back is a 10 bolt posi rear with a polished aluminum cover.

SERVICE: We performed our inspection and only had to replace the exhaust donut gaskets.

Yup, this is one outstanding truck. It checks all your boxes and it's done and ready!

I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year membership.
