Vehicle Description
This custom 1956 Chevrolet 3100 pickup is powered by a 327ci V8
engine that was rebuilt using a 350hp hydraulic lifter cam, GM
aluminum intake and a Holley 650 carburetor. Power goes to a
Saginaw 4-speed manual transmission with a hydraulic throw-out
bearing, and a Ford 9-inch rear end with ladder bars. It also
features an aluminum radiator with an electric cooling fan, a
Vintage Air system, power steering and power disc brakes. The
exterior includes a 1980 pickup front K-member that was adapted to
original frame, boxed with mini-tubs and an aluminum diamond-plate
bed floor. The tailgate of the pickup uses an inside cable and
latches, the license plate folds up to use the trailer hitch
receiver and a rear roll pan replaced the bumper. The truck was
acid-dipped before it was finished in GM Victory Red. The cab
features a one-piece power window with wireless jamb connectors,
updated modern-style door latches and an aftermarket instrument
panel unit. This pickup has been family-owned for 50 years and
stored inside, with a cover. It was restored 25 years ago, and some
chips and cracks are visible. ** PREVIEW
