Few vehicles in the history of the autoverse will turn heads as quickly as a well-executed, chopped-and-dropped restomod. With its fully custom fiberglass body, bulging fenders, and shaved handles, this 1948 Chevrolet 3100 LS Restomod has been painted in a deep, glossy black. That mirror finish stretches across its extended cab, while a custom tailgate and hard tonneau cover give this truck a far sleeker profile than when it rolled off the assembly line.
Inside, we find a nicely done, custom black vinyl interior. A custom center console provides storage while separating a pair of late-model, supportive bucket seats. A power-assisted, Billet Specialties steering wheel sits on a tilt column and just ahead of a single, large 140-mph speedometer. Fuel, temperature, volts, and oil pressure are efficiently displayed within a single large bezel at the base of the center stack, while Vintage Air HVAC controls and power window switches are all thoughtfully placed in a unique custom setup. A Pioneer AM/FM/AUX offers Bluetooth connectivity, while the rear suicide doors make ingress and egress easy for any rear passengers who want to be a part of this exciting ride.
Under that expansive steel hood, we find a modern 5.7-liter LS1 V-8 engine. With its aluminum block and heads, composite manifold, individual coil packs, and electronic fuel injection, spent gases are expelled through a stock-style manifold before ultimately exiting through a trick side-exit exhaust. That power is routed through a 4L60E four-speed automatic transmission before heading out to a rear end that transfers those ponies to the pavement via a set of polished 20-inch Detroit Steel-style wheels shod in modern white-wall tires.
