This exceptional 1956 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup, sourced from the
Cherokee Indian Reservation in Oklahoma, embodies a unique
combination of classic charm and modern performance. The body
showcases a stunning patina that reflects an exquisite balance of
restoration and modification. Every component, including the glass,
window fixtures, trim, mirrors, grille, lights, and bumpers, has
been replaced with high-quality new parts, ensuring both aesthetic
appeal and durability. The truck's ride height, as depicted in the
accompanying photos, is achieved through innovative fabrication,
seamlessly mounted onto a Chevrolet G-body (Monte Carlo)
chassis.
A significant enhancement includes the replacement of the original
Chevy 10-bolt rear end with a custom fabricated Ford 9" featuring a
31 Spline Eaton Truetrac Posi and a 4:11 gear ratio. This upgrade
is complemented by the installation of 11" disc brakes at the rear,
resulting in a robust 4-wheel disc brake system that enhances both
safety and performance. The entire front and rear suspension have
been replaced, including all-wheel bearings, ensuring a smooth and
reliable driving experience.
Under the hood, this 1956 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup boasts a freshly
built Gen III 6.0L LS engine, renowned for its power and
reliability. It has been meticulously assembled using premium
components, including a Cloyes timing chain and BTR LS7 lifters.
Durable GM LS9 head gaskets, ARP head bolts, and Felpro gaskets
further enhance the engine's longevity. An aftermarket intake and a
Nitrous Express MAF system set to +100HP with dual-mounted bottles
are included, although it has never been sprayed, providing
impressive performance for thrilling burnouts. The engine is paired
with a rebuilt 4L60E 4-speed overdrive automatic transmission,
featuring a high-performance Pro-Street torque converter. Both the
engine and transmission are filled with Schaeffer's synthetic oil
and ATF for optimal performance, making this truck a reliable and
enjoyable drive.
The interior has been completely refreshed, showcasing new brown
door panels that beautifully complement the overall design. Modern
amenities include full air conditioning and heating, an extensive
sound system, and brand-new Tull gauges along with an AutoMeter
tachometer equipped with a shift light.
To enhance handling, UMI upper and lower control arms have been
installed in both the front and rear, with adjustable rears for
precise pinion angle and axle centering. The truck is equipped with
20x9 and 20x10 US Mags, featuring 315s in the rear for a commanding
stance. Additionally, a Wilwood brake kit has been implemented on
both the front and rear, ensuring exceptional stopping power.
