Description for Chevrolet Other Pickups 1951

Advanced Design Chevy trucks seem to be one of the hottest vintage pickups going because they combine an upright tough appearance with the sleek lines that make GM products iconic in the 1950s. So we're always excited to have a 1951 Chevrolet 3100 truck like this one that perfectly blends old style with new amenities like a fresh powerful V8, A/C interior, upgraded suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and a five-speed stick. You could get red from Chevrolet in... 1951, but would have never been as striking as this. The Burgundy Maroon has the boldness of red, but with a deeper metallic tone that gives this pickup an instant impression of sophistication. The modern clearcoat loves to allow light to dance across all the curves of the sheetmetal. The same feeling of improved classic is on the brightwork. The chrome and trim remains right where Chevy designers intended, including on that tall grille that looks like an Art Deco skyscraper. But now it has a true mirror-like radiance from a solid investment. And the classic real wood truck bed has beautiful glossy lumber. The only piece on this pickup that doesn't have a vintage connection are the set of Boyd Coddington alloys. Instead, they have an aggressive 18/20 inch front/rear stagger to hint at the modern performance upgrades beneath the skin. Inside is more of the nice blend of vintage and new worlds. You get a classic dash painted to match the exterior. Plus, the upgrades like gauges and sports steering wheel still keep a vintage look. But really, you love this for all the modern integration. Those leather bucket seats look awesome with the diamond-stich inserts. And they coordinate with the custom door panels. There's a custom center console with everything from cup holders to controls for the R134a air conditioning. Plus, there are other great upgrades like power windows, power steering, and the tilt steering column. And the column-mounted tach and Hurst shifter are the ideal pair for performance. Grab your sunglasses before opening the hood. There's less than 270 miles on the motor, and the look of the engine bay proves it with smooth burgundy walls that funnel all your attention to the fresh polished components. We know you'll love showing off this 350 cubic-inch V8... but they'll have to get you off the road first, because it was also built with all the right components. This includes a Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, upgraded pulleys, and an aluminum radiator w/electric fan. It fires up nicely and makes a sweet sound out of the straight pipe dual exhaust. And while you're looking at the undercarriage photos, don't forget to check out terrific upgrades like the tubular A-arm front suspension and four-wheel disc brakes. And because this is a great motor and suspension combo, you'll love the full control you get on the road with the five-speed manual transmission. This is the kind of fresh build that sacrifices nothing. You can be a big hit at your next event without having to leave the air-conditioned comfort of your driver's seat. This kind of appeal means the truck won't be with us long. Call today!!!
