General description :
Now for sale in our Houston showroom is this pretty 1950 Chevrolet 3100 pickup. The truck scene as of late is on the rise. Leading the way is the Chevrolet 3100 and the early Ford F1 and F100. From full on customs to the old trusty shop truck, everything is in vogue of late. This truck has undergone a full frame-off restoration about 20 years ago and has been garage kept ever since. It does have many custom features that make this one sweet ride. It sports a nice bright blue paint job that looks like Dodge Viper blue or close to it. The paint is in good condition for being an older restoration and keeping it in the garage helped with that. Overall the finish is a high-end driver quality paint finish that still shows well, even more so in the sunlight. The exterior trim, bumpers, grill, running boards, & glass are in great condition. The door handles have been shaved off & suicided, the tailgate has been smoothed out, & the bed is all custom wood kit. The truck sits on some 15-inch Crager wheels that are wrapped in BF Goodrich tires that have plenty of life in them. The interior is all custom & in great condition sporting some captain’s chairs, a custom overhead panel with the trucks electrical switches, custom flooring & door panels. It has a custom painted dash with new gauges, Vintage AC controls, & more. Powering this sweet 3100 down the road is a 350 CiD V8 that runs very well & healthy throughout the powerband. It has a nice 4-barrel edlebrock carburetor on it, aluminum intake manifold, ceramic coated headers, a large aluminum radiator with electric fans, a new Vintage air conditioning system, & plenty of chrome & polished parts on it. It is paired to a smooth shifting Turbo350 3-speed automatic transmission that gives the truck a nice easy ride. The engine & trans have been rebuilt recently and have about 2000 miles on them since then. The truck has upgraded suspension on it with newer style front clip with modern control arms & suspension set up.

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
