This 1951 Chevrolet 3100 pickup is a rolling showcase of classic American engineering with a modern twist. Coated in a sleek matte black finish, this truck's exterior is accented by eye-catching red pinstriping on the hood and tailgate. The Oldsmobile headlights and Pontiac taillights add a unique custom touch, while shaved door handles create a clean, streamlined look. Rolling on 15" painted steel wheels wrapped in P225/70R15 front and P235/70R15 rear tires, this Chevy strikes a perfect balance between vintage style and updated performance.
Inside, the black interior is a blend of classic and contemporary. The vinyl bench seat and door panels maintain the truck's period-correct feel, while a custom instrument cluster from Classic Instruments provides modern readability. A Lokar shifter adds a performance touch, and the hidden Vintage Air controls maintain the clean aesthetic. An AM/FM/AUX stereo provides the soundtrack for your drives. The black painted dash ties the interior together, creating a cohesive look that complements the exterior.
Powering this Chevy is a 350 V8 motor paired with a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission. The engine bay is impressively clean, showcasing roller rockers and an MSD ignition system. A running PCV catch can on the firewall helps maintain reliable engine tuning. The drivetrain is further enhanced by a mid-70s Camaro rear end with a 3.08 gear ratio. Underneath, a Heidts Mustang II front end with QA1 coilovers and rack-and-pinion steering improve handling, while power disc brakes up front and power drums in the rear provide confident stopping power. An adjustable brake bias allows for fine-tuning of the braking performance.
