Debuted in 1955 and produced till 1959, the Chevrolet Task Force series of trucks were wildly successful. At GMC dealers this series was more commonly known as the Blue Chip Series. The 1957 production of the Chevrolet truck, was more in line with the likes of the Chevrolet Bel-Air, owing to the flatter hood with two spears on the top. This listing is for a 1957 Chevrolet 3100 pickup, reportedly with a numbers-matching motor and transmission and with just 123,000 miles on the clock. If vintage American pickups are your thing, it’s an ideal contender.
Exterior and Interior
This 1957 Chevrolet 3100 pickup is bedecked in a mellow light blue color, which was repainted in 2015. It sits on a set of OEM Chevrolet wheels wrapped in white-walled Firestone tires. A set of still-in-box babymoon-styled wheels from US Wheel will be given with the truck. The front and rear bumpers have been replaced by the current owner with a chrome set. The seller reports that the truck was purchased brand-new by his uncle, and it has been in the same family ever since. The front grille is painted in white, a perfect contrast with the body color. The interior holds a bench seat in black with the interior dash in white. The vintage 3-spoke steering wheel is in place with the Chevrolet logo superimposed on the horn, behind which lurks the speedometer in a diamond shape design. A Do-Tech cassette player with AM/FM is also aboard. This Chevrolet 3100 also features a floorboard starter, which is also still in place.
Engine
When Chevrolet introduced the Task Force series a myriad of engine and transmission options were offered including the famous ‘3 on the tree’ transmission. This 1957 Chevrolet 3100 pickup is powered by a 3.9L Thriftmaster straight-six engine whilst mated to an original ‘3 on the tree’ 3-speed manual transmission. The motor was reported to have been rebuilt around 20 years ago as per the seller, whilst the transmission has never been rebuilt and is all original. A recent oil change was done on the truck in mid-2021. Stopping power is courtesy of drum brakes all-around. The truck is reported to achieve a top speed of 100 mph and boasts a power output of 85hp.
