For Sale: 1949 Chevrolet 3100 in Mesa, Arizona

Few vehicles in the history of the autoverse have the visual impact that can match an old school slammed and modified pickup truck. One look from any angle at this 1949 Chevrolet 3100 5 Window Restomod and it's easy to see exactly what we're talking about. Fully repainted in a beautiful Burgundy Velvet Metallic, this clean truck features woodgrain panels inside its short bed configuration.

Inside, we find a spectacular burgundy leather interior featuring a split-bench seat that allows an expansive view of the meticulously detailed dashboard. A power-assisted three-spoke steering wheel is wrapped in matching burgundy padding. A trick two-pod Classic Instruments gauge cluster is beautifully efficient with its space. On the right, a 140 mph speedometer shares real estate with an 8,000 rpm tachometer. On the left, oil pressure, engine temperature, fuel, and battery charge each get a quadrant of the space inside the gauge to provide the driver with all the pertinent information required to fully enjoy a cruise down the interstate. A Vintage Air setup handles HVAC duties, while a RetroSound AM/FM/AUX/USB stereo is located behind the seat to keep it from cluttering up the intricate dashboard.

Under the hood, we find a clean engine bay that houses an iron block 5.3-liter V-8 engine. An electronic fuel injection setup and 83mm throttle body powers a set of 862 heads and a performance cam, while shorty headers feed into a dual exhaust before exiting through a pair of Glasspack mufflers. Power is funneled through a 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission operated by a B&M long-handled rachet shifter before heading out through a new driveshaft to a nine-inch Positraction rear end. Seventeen-inch American Racing Salt Flat wheels are shod in staggered Ohtsu tires measuring 225/55R-17 in front and wider 235/55R-17 in the rear.
