Seller's comments about 1956' Chevrolet 3100

You can instantly tell that this 1956 Chevrolet 3100 is a custom-built pickup. So youll love the strong V8, four-wheel disc brakes, updated suspension, bucket seat interior, shining style, and all the other work that has gone into this Chevy. But even with all the upgrades, youll always appreciate the underlying vintage appeal that keeps shining through. This truck certainly has the look of something special. The orange and silver are a well-contrasted two-tone that unite through a shared metallic element. And while the crisp lines of this pickup can often serve as a dividing line, theres a distinct lime green pinstripe to give the colors a distinct border. This is a true classic with a brightwork package that includes a solid investment in the wraparound chrome bumpers and grille to keep them shining brilliantly. Youll even find extra chrome in upgrades like the headlight half covers and 15-inch wheels. But even with all the additions, theres that right hint of classic pickup. You see it everywhere from the real wood truck bed, to the windshield overhang. And the 3100 badges appear almost unrestored to give that right hint or remembering this custom pickups workman roots. Inside are plenty of reminders that this custom build has comfort and quality in mind. There are nicely bolstered bucket seats with a center console in-between. The upholstery also matches the door panels, and the exterior orange returns on the door tops, dash, and carpeting. Theres even a touch of silver on the dash. It makes for a very thoughtful total package. Plus, there are some worthwhile upgrades, like power windows, cup holders, and a full monitor system. Theres also provisions for a subwoofer stereo and R134a air conditioning (they will need servicing to full function again.) Youll enjoy slipping behind the chrome steering wheel thats mounted on a tilt column. It gives you a good view to the full digital gauge cluster now in the original fan-style housing. Under the hood is a 350 cubic-inch crate V8. Its nicely built with a Summit four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock Performer EPS intake manifold, and headers feeding the dual exhaust. The fundamentals like the belts, hoses, and wires show this has been given good care, and you even have an upgraded aluminum radiator. This strong V8 combines with power steering, four-wheel power disc brakes, a three-speed automatic transmission, and a new Mustang II-style independent front end. It makes for quite a desirable upgraded drivers package. This is the shining classic with a strong heart and a comfortable style. That makes for a terrific custom that you need to get in your garage.
