1950 Chevrolet 3100 502 Restomod

Description

This 1950 Chevrolet 3100 502 Restomod is an awesome custom pickup that inserts some serious big block power within this iconic pickup's body lines. Plus, a sleeker style, a custom leather interior, and many other upgrades make this a powerful truck with a unique and forceful presence.

Red is a color that has timeless appeal. But there's a clearcoat shine here that they just could never get back in the day. It lets you know this one was made to stand out a bit more. Up front, this one announces it's something special with the frenched headlights and color-matched grille. They expertly eliminated much of the trim (including the door handles) and added a one-piece windshield for a more modern and smoother appearance. The rear looks aerodynamic with a louvered tailgate and custom roll pan. The classic Caddy tail lights in the fender are a terrific custom touch. Even the classic wood bed has been updated to give you bright slats, a filler cap, and beautiful blond lumber. It makes for a beautiful trick you won't be afraid to drive. After all, the heart of the upgrading is more power and poise for the streets. That's why the 17-inch Ridler wheels let you fit better modern tires.

There are plenty more custom details inside. It's a stylish and thoughtful total package that starts with the supple leather bench with nice contouring, individual bolstering, and cup holders. The custom door panels, headliner, and carpeting have been done with the coordinating tan. So you really can tell this is a classic with comfort in mind. There's an instant feeling of a driver's pickup with the leather-wrapped banjo-style steering wheel, tilt steering column, Lokar shifter, and a bright Dolphin gauge package.

While we already told you the motor was a beast, you might not have expected it to be a beauty, too. It follows the exterior's theme of delivering a sleek style with plenty of bright red to catch your eye. So the custom inner fenders, color-matched firewall, and custom fabricated engine cover are all part of a very thoughtful style. But what you'll love is that behind all the stylish presentation is the substance of a 502 cubic-inch V8. While this big block is already a terrific power upgrade, this one takes it further with a Demon four-barrel carburetor, a Weiand intake, and headers feeding onto the dual exhaust and Flowmaster mufflers. Getting all this power to the streets is a stout pairing of a TH400 three-speed automatic and a Ford 9-inch rear end. Plus, you have the power steering, an upgraded independent front suspension, front disc brakes, and rear traction bars.

Bold, powerful, and quite custom - if you love a big block classic, you know you need this Chevy pickup in your garage. Call now!
