1957 Chevrolet 3100 Description

If you are looking for a cool vintage pickup, this 3100 may certainly be the one. With bright paintwork, a luxurious A/C interior, overdrive transmission, a powerful V8 under the hood, and so much more... you get the best of everything.Just one look and you can see a lot of work has gone into this pickup. The red is a deep rich color that could have been on the best '50s trucks. But the moment the sunlight hits it, you see the dramatic difference that comes from the luster of a modern clearcoat. The bumpers, badges, bezels, mirrors, and all other trim compete with the paint as they shine like new mirrors. There is even a bit of attitude added to this truck with an aggressive stance resting on 15-inch Eagle Alloy wheels. But even with these refreshed and upgraded items, the truck doesn't lose its original personality. This model series was the beginning of the stylistic wraparound windshields, and it's known for the extra flair in the fenders (especially the rear). But even as beautiful as this presentation is, the diamond plate bed and the large fuel storage lockbox remind you that this classic pickup can still get to work.The tailored feel of this truck really is raised another notch just by stepping inside. When you look closely at the black bench seat, you realize it has a cool flame pattern stitched into it. Even the door panels get the cool custom touch, too. This pickup comes with all the right features like an upgraded AM/FM/CD stereo with an aux input for modern music players, and there's ice-cold modern R134a air conditioning. You'll slip behind the custom black and chrome steering wheel with Chevy bow tie etched in the center, and grab the matching shifter stalk. But even with all the upgrades, this one still unmistakably feels very vintage. For example, the original fan-style gauge cluster is a great piece to keep because it has the same cool character that was being added to Chevy's iconic 1955 passenger cars. But now it's joined by auxiliary readouts to keep you in-tune with what's going in the engine bay.While there has been plenty invested in this classic pickup's interior and exterior, we bet your favorite upgrade is under the hood. This one has a great-looking 350 cubic-inch V8 that has plenty of show-ready shine. But more than just look nice, this one has been enhanced with go-fast goodies such as an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake, Super Stock wiring, and Headman Headers. This makes for a pickup that fires up on command and offers a sweet rumble through the dual exhaust. This is a total package pickup, and so it's more than just a power machine. It has great driving features like the independent front suspension w/thick sway bar, the power steering, front disc brakes, and a new TH400 transmission. This is a timeless classic design with highway-friendly upgrades. That makes it the vintage pickup that you'll be as comfortable taking to shows just as much as on the morning commute. With this kind of versatility, you know it will be gone soon. Call today!!!
