Red Candy Pearl paint laid over one of the most popular trucks of all time is a surefire way to drop jaws. This 1951 Chevrolet 3100 3-window pickup will have people doing double takes and taking photos! The curves of this body look amazing in this deep red, and the black cherry ghost flames take it to the next level. Shaved door handles, frenched headlights and a louvered tailgate will let everyone know this isnt your grandpas farm truck. What people wont know from a distance is that this truck isnt just show, its a heck of a lot of go, too! Under the hood a 505 CID big block Chevrolet engine roars to life with the bump of the key. It started at a 427 tall deck that was bored and stroked to 505 cubic inches. It is topped with an Edelbrock intake that holds a Quick Fuel Technologies 850 CFM carburetor. Roller rockers on a Clay Smith camshaft give this truck a nice lope. It was built with an Eagle crankshaft, Mallory HEI and new headers. Backing that big block is a 4L80E automatic transmission that was built to handle up to 1,200 horsepower. Then the power is routed out back to a Ford 9 rear end with 3.50:1 posi gears! The rear end has a 4-link setup with stabilizer bar and adjustable coil-over shock. Up front a Mustang II front end with 2 drop spindles gives this truck just the right stance. Adjustable coil-over shocks up front provide a great ride quality. The suspension is matched with power 4-wheel disc brakes that make you feel like youre in a new truck. The interior is also all new with white oyster leather, red carpet and white face gauges. An under-dash A/C unit is nicely installed and a CD player is mounted under the dash. This beauty is loaded with options including: A/C, power steering, power brakes, tilt steering wheel, leather interior, seat belts, radial tires, aluminum alloy wheels, keyless entry, AM/FM/CD player, tinted windows, power windows, LED lights and more.
