Ever since the first production cars hit the streets, owners and enthusiasts have been modifying their vehicles to set them apart from the other vehicles on the street. This eventually led to the custom and hot rod culture that was very prevalent in the 1950's car community. This 1951 Chevrolet 3100 Pick-up is an excellent example of a 50's custom inspired hot rod pickup. This Chevrolet 3100 has undergone an extensive frame-off restoration, receiving a plethora of custom touches that have transformed it into the beautiful hot rod pickup that it is today. The restoration on this 3100 pickup is roughly 8 years old and still presents very well overall. The custom Torch Red and Satin Black exterior is in very good condition with only minor age present in the paint. The exterior of the truck has received a number of custom touches including: nosed hood, shaved doors, 4" chopped roof, smoothed tailgate, shaved drip rails, filled bed rail ends and frenched headlights.
