1954 Chevrolet 3100

Restomod 3100 5 Window Pickup Truck This classic 54 Chevrolet 3100 5 window has been restored to be a driver and has been upgraded to be more reliable. Not a 100 point show truck but great looking and catches a ton of attention. Bright paint colors are always a great choice on a vintage pickup, and thanks to the wonders of modern paint, this vivid Tanjello Orange 3100 looks far more appealing than it did when it was new. It was refinished about 10 years ago to a very solid driver-quality standard, and thanks to expert care and maintenance, it still looks great with only minor signs of use and age. The Advance Design pickups are a favorite among truck enthusiasts, and they were one of the first trucks to take into account that just maybe all those farmers and carpenters wanted something that was stylish and comfortable as well as durable and versatile. Fit and finish are quite good and unlike so many of these trucks, it managed to keep a good bit of its original trim for that old-school simplicity that is a large part of the 3100's charm. Up front there's a chromed grille that's in great shape, the painted running boards look great, and the chrome bumpers fore and aft serve as perfect endcaps to the already vivid exterior. The bed's full of stylish lumber that was nicely stained and glazed, with chrome slats holding them together for a finish as a slick as a dance floor and even has a matching cooler. But don't worry, if you still want to use this 3100 like a pickup, it's more than capable of hauling half of Home Depot away for you – and with this familiar color scheme they might just want to park it out front as a marketing piece. All the extra bright bits like the handles, mirrors, and badges provide great contrast against the vivid orange and pearl white finish, and this is one with its upgraded frame and drivetrain make it a pleasure to drive. A 350 Crate engine and 460le automatic transmission allow the truck to me more reliable and with power steering and front power disc brakes make you feel more comfortable to drive and handle. Upgraded vintage AC blow cold. A Must See!
