Vehicle Description
This 1947 Chevrolet Pickup embodies the grit and determination of
post-WWII America, wearing its years of service proudly in its
weathered green patina exterior. Part of a unique, short-lived
model year, this truck bridges the gap between pre-war designs and
the needs of a nation ready to get back to work. The patina finish
tells a story of decades on the road, while modern upgrades like
20" Rocket wheels wrapped in 245/35ZR20 front and 255/50R20 rear
tires hint at the truck's newfound performance capabilities. LED
brake lights and upgraded headlights blend seamlessly with the
classic lines, maintaining the truck's vintage appeal while
improving visibility and safety.
Inside, this Chevy's cabin has been completely reimagined with
comfort and style in mind. A saddle-colored leather interior
creates a warm, inviting atmosphere that contrasts beautifully with
the truck's rugged exterior. The bench seat provides ample room,
while power windows add a touch of modern convenience. A chrome
Ididit steering column topped with a wood-rimmed wheel gives the
driver precise control. The centerpiece of the dashboard is the
Holley EFI Pro Dash, featuring customizable digital gauges that
provide all the vital information at a glance. Vintage Air
conditioning ensures comfortable cruising in any weather.
The powerhouse that transforms this classic hauler into a modern
performer is a Texas Speed and Performance-built LS3 V8, bored out
to 418 cubic inches, sits at the heart of this restomod. Forged
internals, including the crankshaft, H-beam rods, and pistons,
coupled with Trick Flow 235 cc Cathedral port heads and a custom
Comp cam, create a potent combination. A Holley Terminator X Max
EFI system with transmission control manages the fuel delivery,
while Hooker headers feed into a dual exhaust system with an X-pipe
for an aggressive exhaust note. Power is sent through a rebuilt
4L80E transmission equipped with a Circle D billet triple-disc
converter, ensuring smooth shifts and reliable performance.
