For Sale at Auction: 1950 Chevrolet 3100 in Palm Beach, Florida

Vehicle Description

Known as "Grizzly," this 1950 Chevrolet 3100 supercharged LS3 custom pickup with a TCI chassis is the ultimate American classic truck. Built by Streamline Custom Designs in Utah and debuted at the Goodguys Lone Star Nationals. In 2023, it was presented a Goodguys Builders Choice Award and Truck of the Year Early Finalist Award. It was also featured in Goodguys and TruckHub magazines and was showcased at the Hot Rod Alliance at SEMA. The vision of this build was to create a unique 3100 that defines luxury and performance. Rather than fight decades-old sheet metal, the team at Streamline started with new sheet metal, including a Premier Street Rods 5-window cab, AMD hood and fenders, and a second-gen Mark-K bed. That allowed them to concentrate on making subtle body modifications like a shaved cowl, one-piece hood, custom inner fenders, frenched LED headlights, front valence, Kindig door handles, smooth running boards, radiused bed corners, molded taillights, a custom tailgate and a rolled rear pan. The bed was raised 3 inches and a set of mini-tubs was installed. The team also built custom front and rear bumpers from a 1968 Chevrolet Camaro. The laser-straight body and precise gap lines highlight the iconic design. It was outfitted with a new one-piece windshield and door glass. The distinctive color started from Winterleaf Brown off a 1932 Ford and was customized to what now is referenced as Streamline Cafe Au Lait. The paint was applied to the highest standards and is exquisite. The color flip-flops with different lighting. The oak bed floor is finished of multiple stain colors with smoothed stainless-steel strips and Crafty-B supplied the stylish gas cap. It rolls on Schott Split-Window 18x8 front and 19x12 rear wheels mounted to Nitto yellow line tires. Revolution stitched up the cabin by covering the dash, American Retro steering wheel, Procar bucket seats, center console and just about every interior panel in distressed leather. It was decorated with a microfiber suede headliner and German-weave carpeting with molded floor mats. Some interior amenities include Dakota Digital gauges, Restomod air conditioning, power windows, JL Audio system (including speakers and subwoofer), Ididit tilt steering column, cup holders, power outlet, USB ports, and Clayton Machine Works shifter, handles and pedals. The painted engine compartment is highly detailed throughout. To optimize engine set back within the chassis, the firewall was recessed 3 inches and was smoothed out. The hood has custom support brackets and pumps. Powered by a Chevrolet Performance LS3 engine with a Magnuson supercharger and dyno-tested with 632hp and 775 ft/lbs at the rear wheels. Olds Rocket valve covers dress up the LS3, and the accessory drive is from Drive Junky. A combination of Satin Clear on the under-hood sheet metal and custom Graphite Gray on the valve covers, supercharger and wheels provide nice contrast to the body color. The front section of the passenger side was modified to conceal the supercharger fluid tank, and the driver-s side now accommodates the cold-air induction tube. The engine is cooled by an aluminum radiator with electric fan that's concealed under a custom radiator panel. The engine breathes through Speed Engineering headers and Flowmaster mufflers with electric exhaust cutouts. The engine is coupled to a Chevrolet Performance 4L75E automatic transmission and Currie 9-inch rear end with 3.73 gears. The undercarriage is highly detailed throughout. Equipped with a new TCI Engineering chassis with power rack & pinion steering, tubular control arms, heavy-duty sway bars, four-link rear and RideTech coilover shocks. Also equipped with power Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes and an E-Stopp electric emergency brake. Only driven 1,145 miles and performs excellent. This vehicle has been completely serviced and detailed, which is documented with an included invoice. From the MS CLASSIC CARS Collection. **TITLE BRANDED ODOMETER DISCREPANCY** ** PREVIEW
