1950 Chevrolet 3100 1/2 Ton pickup project for sale
This project is very far along. Why am I selling? Imoved the truck to a guy's shop that does show cars and lost interest. I have started a passionate love affair with adventuremotorcycles and wish to sell the truck to buy more motorcycle projects, toy haulers, etc. I started this project by purchasing a chassis with engine, transmission and rear differential from a guy in Kentucky. He was putting the metal from the truck on an S10 frame.
The Good:$19,000+ worth of new parts in the truck$8,000+ Brand new cab from Premier Street Rods in Arizona216 Engine professionally rebuilt by Smyth Automotive machine shop in Cincinnati and sounds amazing. I can e-mail you a video of it running4-speed manual transmission professional rebuilt by Ridge Transmission in CincinnatiRear differential professionally rebuilt including Patrick's upgrade kit for highway speeds by Ridge Transmission in CincinnatiReally nice seat, great shapeChassis was completely cleanedwith an electric/alkaline bath process and immediately primed and painted with heavy duty chassis paint. Transmission and rear differential treated with Eastwood's 4 step process. Brand new cab has special paint on the bottom for prevention of corrosion. The entire cabis new! No rust. The cab corners are not rusted out! I have all receipts and a notarized statement from the guy I bought it from which should make titlemuch easier.This project is very close to driving and title work. Finish some items andput a bed on it and you are there.
The Bad:Hood needs alignmentTruck has been sitting for a couple of months and is quite dusty Project started with chassis/engine/transmission/rear diff so all other parts have come from other trucks. Fitment has been a fun part of the project.
Please message me with questions. I can send additional photos and videos of the engine running (sounds amazing).

This truck project also comes with two hoods. I have an original hood off another truck and a new one purchased from Premier Street Rods. Both are painted Forest Green.
In response to some great questions,this truck has no S10 parts. I bought the frame/engine/transmission/rear diff off a guy who put the sheet metal from the truck on an S10 frame. The cab, fenders and one of the hoods are new metal. The frame was dipped and primed and painted with a heavy duty chassis black paint. The outer surfaces of the transmission and rear diff were treated with Eastwood's four step process.

I should also mention this truck comes withquite a few parts not shown such as a chrome glove box lid, chrome door handles, interior door handles, door window mechanism, the doors have these upgraded "EZ latch" things. I have all the glass and rubber for the 5-window cab,headliners, etc. The wiring harness is brand new from Classic Parts. The in-cab fuel tank is brand new. I have all the emergency brake stuff but it isn't installed. The brake drums and pads are all brand new. The brake lines are new and upgraded stainless steel. Another thing to mention is that the new front fenders painted black were scratchedby one of the shops I had it in to help complete items. They will need some touchup.
