Overview of 1956 Chevrolet 3100 Big Window For Sale by Owner

American trucks of the ’50s were true workhorses; they helped shape and move a nation and captured the hearts of many. Fast forward to today, and the love for American trucks has now been transformed from one of practical value to aesthetic value. The transformation means a massive shift in how classic American trucks look and perform; take this 1956 Chevrolet 3100 Big Window we have, for instance. This classic American truck features the perfect balance of old-school charm and new-age performance and looks.

Exterior and Interior

A frame-off restoration is a term used loosely in the automotive landscape. This 1956 Chevrolet 3100 Big Window, however, is a true frame-off restoration; one look at the iconic copper gold exterior, and you just know it's a restoration done well. A glance at this classic American truck, and you might notice some changes; the current owner reports that the fenders have been widened by 3 inches for a better stance and it features chrome that shines out and blends in with the gold exterior. For wheels, this classic American truck sits on a set of Rostyle-styled American racing wheels, which are finished in gun metal grey. The black interior of this 1956 Chevrolet 3100 Big Window is nothing short of a masterpiece. Step inside, and you are treated to a host of upgrades, which include a custom cluster, upgraded Grant steering wheel, billet interior components, and fully functional air conditioning to brave those hot summer drives.

Engine

A restoration doesn't just mean updated looks and features. In many cases, there's a need to move away from the tired old ’50s performance into performance that makes you smile in shock and awe with every drive out. Pop open the hood of this 1956 Chevrolet 3100 Big Window, and what you will find is not a tired old motor but a 383ci Stroker V8 motor ready for action and has just a reported 4,387 miles run in. The updated performance is not alone in bringing an enhanced drive experience. The current owner reports a double pumper Holley carburetor in place for smooth power delivery, power steering to make being behind the wheel a pleasant experience, and front disc brakes to ensure you stop as fast as you go. In true performance truck fashion, this classic American Resto-mod channels all its performance to its rear wheels through a 700R4 Automatic transmission.
