Description
The Chevrolet 3100 pickup is a classic American truck that epitomizes the ruggedness and charm of vintage vehicles. Released during a time when trucks were primarily used for work purposes, the 3100 pickup was built to withstand heavy loads and tough conditions.
One of the standout features of the Chevrolet 3100 is its timeless and iconic design. The smooth, rounded lines and chrome accents give it a sleek and elegant appearance, setting it apart from other trucks of its time. The large front grille and headlights give it a distinct and bold look, while the rear fenders and step-side bed add a touch of functionality.
Under the hood, the 1957 Chevrolet 3100 boasts a powerful engine that is capable of handling heavy loads with ease. It originally came with a 235 cubic inch straight-six engine, which produced 140 horsepower and 215 lb-ft of torque. It was later replaced by a V8 engine option that provided even more power and performance. Inside the cabin, the Chevy pickup offers a simple yet functional interior. The bench seat provides enough room for three passengers, while the large steering wheel and minimalist dashboard make it easy to operate.
This example on offer presents very well and drives like a dream. The V8 engine thunders along on the open road, providing all the theatre and attention one would expect from a beast like this. Finished in red over black, and having covered 10396km indicated on the clock, this truck makes for quite the head turner. Some additional extras on this example include: 15 inch chrome smoothie rims with BFGoodrich tyres, built 383 stroker (383 cast crank, mild street cam, speedmaster aluminium heads, custom aluminium radiator and bezel, and Power Master hrome alternator), Holley EFi, Jaguar XJS front and rear suspension, stainless steel exhaust system, aluminium fuel tank, adjustable stainless steering column and complete rewire to name a few. Extensive invoice file for work and maintenance carried out for a number of years accompany the vehicle. This monster needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. Don’t miss out.
