vintage classic chrome patina chevy advance design Edelbrock Flowmaster

Description

Patina trucks teach us there's more than meets the eye. After all, with a terrific gloss, upgraded A/C interior, a fresh crate V8, and much more, this 1954 Chevrolet 3100 pickup has a cool kind of confidence that goes beyond its worn-in appearance. While this has the unmistakable look of patina and a weathered barn wood truck bed, you're really looking at a restoration that was completed in 2017. That's why the worn-in look of this carefully crafted... paint is augmented by a clearcoat. The result is a cool classic pickup that looks like you're preserving a barn find shop truck - and it even has the antiques store graphics to drive this point home. But as you take a closer look, you also see how much thoughtfulness went into this build. The proof is in the full custom pinstripe package, including the rear fender's curved spare tire insert that's now used for more cool shop truck script. Plus, there's more distinction in the details, everywhere from shining bumper and grille, to the lowered suspension, to how the red wheels provide a preview of the interior. Plenty of bright red, supple black, and pinstriping await you inside. But while this gives you a worn-in look on the outside, the interior is filled with modern comfort. The bench seat has comfortable cloth inserts for where you sit and beneath the plush carpeting is Dynamat insulation. There's a retro-style AM/FM digital tuner that has a Bluetooth connection, and you stay cool with modern R134a air conditioning. Even with all these upgrades, you still get a great classic pickup feeling from the vintage-style steering wheel and large factory-style gauge package. While the exterior tries to hide its upgraded look, the engine bay cannot conceal all the great modern investments. You're looking at a fresh 350 cubic-inch crate motor. It inhales deeply with a four-barrel carburetor and exhales with extra power as headers feed the dual exhaust. Plus, you have the right supporting components with taut belts, good hoses, and an aluminum radiator w/electric fan to help keep this pickup running cool even if you're in traffic with the A/C pumping. This truck was clearly built for driving, that's why you have the new tubular A-arm front suspension, power steering, front disc brakes, and a three-speed automatic transmission. Complete with build receipts and restoration photos, this is an exceptionally cool patina custom that's unique, fresh, and all-around comfortable. So don't miss out on something this distinct.
