Dressed in vibrant yellow paint and rolling on a set of 18"/20"
staggered Billet Specialties wheels that help accentuate its
aggressively lowered and slightly inclined stance, this 1956
Chevrolet 3100 is a visually striking take on its timeless model.
Its shortbed configuration gives it a stout, capable visual
demeanor and both the color matched window visor and side exit
exhaust pipes are stylistic choices that really pay dividends in
this case. Up front, you'll find a pair of upgraded headlights to
better illuminate the road ahead, and as you venture around to the
back, you'll see that the wood bed on this classic is in
particularly good condition, with well-prepped wooden planks lining
the floor and no concerning dings or dents to be found on the
surrounding steel walls.
When you look around the interior, you can see some signs that this
pickup has been enjoyed during the recent years of its considerable
lifetime, but it remains a very functional and comfortable driving
environment. The aftermarket bench seat is comfortable enough for
even longer journeys and, as you direct your attention forward,
you'll see a factory dash that presents very well. The surrounding
window glass and rubber seals are fresh and pliable to keep the
elements from intruding and a retro-style AM/FM radio pairs with
door mounted speakers to fill the cabin with sound.
This classic pickup happens to be apleasure to drive. Its
350-cubic-inch V8 is fed by a four-barrel Edelbrock carburetor, and
it not only pulls with plenty of strength, but also sounds healthy
as it exhales into its long tube headers that lead to a dual
exhaust terminating in a pair of Flowmaster mufflers. The engine
bay is simply and clean with nothing but fresh hoses and belts and
properly routed wiring in view. Its featured four-speed T10 manual
transmission runs through its gears smoothly and with disc brakes
at all four corners, this 3100 comes to a stop as quickly as
needed.
