With World War 2 over, the time for rebuilding was in order. The American car industry was charging towards towards post-war production, and demand for trucks was at an all-time high thanks to their practicality and reliability. Fast forward to today and trucks from the 40s are hot property in the custom build market. Wondering how you can get in the fun? This 1946 Chevrolet 3100 we have today is a 40s beauty with performance to raise eyebrows and looks that ensure you stand out, it's time you spiced up your Sunday cruise and drive off in style.
Exterior and Interior
While this 1946 Chevrolet 3100 sports a whole lot of custom features it's nice to note that the original design hasn't been lost in the process. The exterior of this truck is finished in black and is in great condition. Looking closer at the body of this vintage truck and you would realize the absence of chrome components, the chrome delete gives better visibility into the upgraded power available with this truck. Giving this truck a low-down appearance is an air ride system in the front, this coupled with the teardrop headlights and chrome Cragar-styled wheels give this truck a lovely stance. The interior of this 1946 Chevrolet 3100 is where you would find the most custom upgrades. The beige custom leather interior means the old-school bench seats are swapped out for more comfort and luxury. The absence of chrome components on the exterior means the interior sees more chrome components in the form of a custom chrome steering wheel and dashboard elements.
Engine
While the redesigned hood gives you a taste of what powers this 1946 Chevrolet 3100, pop it open, and you are treated to the site of a crate ZZ4 350ci V8 engine. The big change-up in power from the factory inline offerings means that you have a mighty 355hp on tap. Power is sent to the truck's rear wheels through a Turbo 400 automatic transmission. The massive upgrade in power is brought to a steady halt thanks to disc brakes on all 4 wheels. Other upgrades include the battery being relocated to the trunk to ensure better weight distribution.
This 1951 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod blends the unmistakable shape of Chevrolet’s Advance-Design pickup with a thoroughly reworked performance-oriented drivetrain and chassis. Finished in Forest Green Metallic over a Black interior, this build is powered by a 6.0-liter LS2 V8 topped with dual Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetors and backed by a TH400 3-speed automatic. Supporting upgrades include 4-wheel disc brakes, a power brake booster, an aftermarket suspension setup, custom wheels, and a wood bed floor with polished metal strips. Inside, the truck mixes vintage simplicity with custom touches such as an aftermarket gauge cluster, dash-mounted display screen, and 3-spoke steering wheel. Showing approximately 754 miles, this 3100 presents as a fresh-feeling restomod with classic truck styling and modernized mechanical hardware.
This 1953 Chevrolet 3100 Restomod Pickup takes the unmistakable Advance-Design shape and gives it the kind of mechanical upgrades that make a classic truck far easier to enjoy today. Showing approximately 3,055 miles, this example is powered by a 350ci V8 with electronic fuel injection and a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission. Finished in red over a custom black interior with red contrast stitching, it combines a lowered stance, aftermarket wheels, modern cooling, air conditioning, and updated instrumentation with the 3100’s signature rounded-fender styling. The result is a classic Chevrolet pickup with a strong street-rod personality and a much more usable drivetrain than stock.
This 1956 Chevrolet 3100 Stepside Restomod takes the unmistakable shape of Chevrolet’s Task Force-era pickup and pairs it with a thoroughly modernized performance package. Showing approximately 28,601 miles, this build is powered by a supercharged 5.0L Coyote V8 with electronic fuel injection and a Roush supercharger, sending power to the rear wheels through an automatic transmission. Finished in black over a beige interior, it also benefits from a reupholstered cabin, aftermarket digital gauges, a Pioneer audio head unit, custom wood bed flooring, and aftermarket wheels. It is a strong blend of vintage truck styling and contemporary performance hardware.
The 1982 Chevrolet Corvette marked the end of the C3 era, making it a fitting final chapter for one of the Corvette’s most recognizable generations. This example shows approximately 50,346 miles and pairs its 350ci L83 V8 with Cross-Fire electronic fuel injection and a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission. Finished in silver with a dark gray lower accent over a light gray leather interior, it carries the unmistakable late-C3 look with removable glass T-tops, factory alloy wheels, raised-white-letter tires, and the model’s sculpted front and rear aero treatment. An aftermarket air conditioning system adds a useful modern touch to a car that still feels very much rooted in the early-1980s Corvette experience.
The 1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo was built as Chevrolet’s personal-luxury coupe, but this example leans much harder into the muscle-car side of that formula. Showing approximately 69,681 miles, it has been upgraded with a 350ci BluePrint V8, 4-barrel carburetor, Turbo 350 3-speed automatic, aftermarket headers, and an aftermarket exhaust system. Power steering, power disc brakes, upgraded suspension components, and factory air conditioning make the package far more usable than a stripped-down street build, while Rally wheels, raised-white-letter tires, and a black vinyl top preserve the period look enthusiasts expect from an early Monte Carlo.
This 1964 Chevrolet C10 Restomod has the look of a proper custom street truck and the hardware to make good on it. Showing just 475 miles, it packs a 6.2L LS3 V8, electronic fuel injection, a 4L80E 4-speed automatic, and a Ford 9-inch rear end into one seriously reworked classic Chevy platform. A custom frame, aftermarket suspension setup, and 4-wheel disc brakes give the truck a far more modern foundation underneath, while the black paint and copper-finished wheels bring the kind of stance and attitude that make a build like this hard to ignore. It is the sort of C10 that appeals as much to the person who wants to inspect every detail at a show as it does to someone who simply wants to fire up an LS-powered classic and enjoy the drive.
