Description
Lot #1156 - This 1956 Chevrolet 3100 short-bed pickup features a wraparound window and has recently undergone a complete, frame-off, nut-and-bolt restoration with no expense spared. The truck is powered by a 572ci big-block Chevy engine that is fuel-injected by a Holley Sniper system, backed by an automatic transmission shifted by Lokar floor shifter. It’s equipped with a 9” Ford rear end, custom-built chassis with 4-link rear and independent front suspension, RideTech air ride and 4-wheel power disc brakes. The 572 is dressed with a Billet Specialties front serpentine belt system and Patriot HPC coated headers with 3” Black Widow exhaust. This ‘56 is finished in Jet Black paint with a Torch Red double-stitched interior that has a lot of custom touches throughout. It features Vintage Air, custom gauges, tilt steering column and a billet steering wheel wrapped to match. The truck started with a clean, rust-free cab and was sandblasted to bare metal. It was professionally restored using all-new weatherstripping and seals, all-new Euro gray-smoked glass, all-new cab mounts, stainless bolts, screws and fasteners, stainless brake and air lines, complete new wiring harness and all-new chrome throughout. It has a one-off wood bed and rides on a set of new custom 20” billet wheels.
