1957 Chevy 3100 Completed Build Pictures

Just finished the truck. Lots of hours, blood, sweat and a few swear words. But it is finally completed. On to the next project.

I did send the truck to Reno.....I thought I would let Barrett Jackson give it the shake down on the auction block....

Not "Heck no", just no if it were mine. It looks great. You ought to be extremely proud and it looks great as it is. I think there will be plenty of takers whether with out without the whitewalls.

It looks real sharp.
I agree with Dan about the white walls.

Re: 1957 Chevy 3100 Completed Build Pictures

I voted "heck no" because whitewalls remind me of all those baby boomers in Monte Carlos back in the late 70's. Or those guys on a certain message board who are so cranky about using any parts made after 1965....
But other than that, your truck looks cool, and I would be interested to see how much it sells for, if you are inclined to post that info.

Dunno what votes are for, sorry. But I do know you have one truck to be proud of. It is absolutely stunning. Should you need working space for 'next project', I'd try to help by getting this one out of the way for you!
