New 1953 Chevrolet 3100

This classic truck has been updated to the 21st century hidden under the beautiful original body while retaining its iconic 50's look.
From the power barn to the seats, this truck is road ready, paint ready, and ready to turn heads.

This is by no means a restoration, but instead a rebuild.  The wire harness has been removed and replaced with a new manufacture harness and switched to a 12V system, with all digital gauges for speed, voltage, oil, millage and fuel level. New headlights and the gauge cluster still resembles the original style, but with the reliability of today's tech.

The truck's new Vintage Air system will keep you cool year round, windows up or down.
The fuel tank has been removed from behind the seat, and placed under the bed, and matched with bucket seats for maximum leg room and comfort. This also allows for a modern 3-point seat-belt for safety.

The body has been sanded and primed, and is ready to paint. Or leave it as is for a rat rod look. The bed has been replaced with beautiful Texas pecan wood and epoxy coated for durability. I have original and new manufactured badges and emblems not installed yet as well.

The interior is free of carpet and headliner, and instead painted with speckle paint and textured floors.

Fully rebuilt Chevy small block 305 with a new Edelbrock 4 barrel carb and intake manifold. Added with a new exhaust system makes this truck rumble. Bored .60 over, with brand new pistons and all. All components have been replaced.

Brand new Vision "Legend Series" wheels and Kumo tires on a 5 bolt pattern. The suspension has been completely replaced with a Mustang II front end, a Camaro rear end, and new coil over shocks. Power steering has been added as well. Brakes have been upgraded with Wilwood power disk brakes, and an added E-brake.

The column shifter has been swapped for a rebuilt 5 speed GM T5 transmission on the floor, and fitted with a hydraulic clutch and new drive shaft bearings.

Location is Salado, Texas
