Seller's comments about 1957' Chevrolet 3100

This 1957 Chevrolet 3100 may have a mean all-black style, but the total impression is one of the nicest cruisin classics around. Thats because you have an A/C interior, overdrive transmission, and four-wheel disc brakes. This custom classic truck even has a fully independent suspension! A truck dressed in black instantly conveys a premium and powerful attitude. The color-matched grille, dark headlight bezels, shaved trim, and deleted bumpers keep the sleek midnight feeling going. Its all part of a later upgrade creating a cool-looking custom, and today the total package strikes the right balance of a good gloss but nothing too fancy that will keep you from driving this truck. While the darkness is awesome, it also serves to help bring greater attention to the brighter pieces. It focuses your eye on upgrades like the babymoon wheels and bright dual exhaust tips that signal performance upgrades beneath the skin. But as custom, as this one looks, dont forget the fundamentals. The panels are straight, doors open and close with confidence, and the lumber on the bed floor looks show-worthy. The exterior black returns inside, and now its joined by a tasteful gray. And everything from the smooth ash to the clean glass makes this feel inviting. Its built to be a cruiser, and so you have a comfortable setup with a tweed bench seat, an AM/FM/cassette stereo with aux input, and cold-blowing air conditioning. You can also tell its a true cruiser with updates like the later-model Chevy steering wheel on a tilt column and power steering. Under the hood is an upgrade to Chevys 305 cubic-inch V8, and were even told theres only about 30k miles on the motor. We like how the block, intake, and valve covers are done in black to match the rest of the truck. So it looks cool, but the real focus is on making it a proper driver. It inhales deeply with a Rochester four-barrel carburetor, and the dual exhaust makes sure this exhales with a subtlety sweet tune. The V8 is supported by quality components like an aluminum radiator, HEI ignition, a serpentine belt setup, and newer hoses. This all makes for the kind of pickup youll want to drive, and the upgraded 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive lets you enjoy it near or fan in comfort. Plus, the undercarriage reveals a true treat. The front suspension is now a later model Chevy independent front end with disc brakes. The rear is now a Jaguar-style setup with inboard brakes. So youll find six-figure restomod trucks that wish they had this fully independent suspension with four-wheel disc brakes! This custom build combines classic looks, V8 power, and impressive upgrades you dont often find elsewhere. That makes for a total package youll want to be cruising this weekend. Call today!!!
