Description

1959 Chevy 3100 with mostly original patina. The passenger's side door was black but has been based with original yellow and the logo on the doors added. This is not a rest-o-mod! This truck looks, rides, and drives like an old 59 truck. It has new front lowering springs, all new rubber brake lines, new wheel cylinders, new front timken bearings. Most lights wor, headlights, tail lights, turn signals and the inside dome work. Temp and oil pressure gauges work. It has new 3 inch flowmasters turned down right past the cab. They are loud and vibrate the inside! It has new 20 inch tires on steel wheels. The engine is a mostly stock 454 out of a chevy truck. It had a rusty gas tank that has been replaced with a new one. Before replacing the tank I ran bad fuel thru the new Edelbrock carb. now the engine runs a little rough/misses a little at low RPM. Once the 4 barrel opens it runs strong. Truck is not perfect, it has rust, steering is a little loose, needs shocks, window seals, both vent glasses are out, etc. The windows do roll up and down. It's a ratrod type truck so PLEASE inspect or ask questions. Again, this is not a $100,000 streetrod build, it's a fun ratrod driver. Clear MS bonded title in the person's name it was built for. Cool, fun truck to drive!
