Dubbed “Orangish”, this eye-opening 1950 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup Custom rides on a GSI chassis and is powered by a GM Performance 6.2-liter LS3/525HP V8 crate engine with 6L80E automatic transmission. As the VIN number indicates this truck was built in January at the Flint, Michigan factory as a 3100 model. It was restored over 5 episodes on You Tube by Tre 5 Customs located in Peoria, Arizona. The idea behind the build was to keep the original factory body appearance with modern touches throughout. It debuted in the Accuair booth at SEMA in 2021. It was also displayed in the GSI Machine and Fabrication booth at the Barrett Jackson show in 2022. It was featured on the cover and on 12 pages of CK Truck Magazine in the May 2022 issue. The exterior is rolling artwork with its super straight body and brilliant color. During the restoration process the cowl vent and side vents were shaved for smooth look. The truck was refinished in custom Orange ChromaAir paint which is stunning. The body work and paint was done by IKandy Paintworks located in Peoria, Arizona. It was outfitted with all new Precision tinted glass. Some of the exterior custom features include a frenched headlight kit with UP Auto LED lights, modified 1952 style GSI billet door handles and custom billet badges. The original bed was replaced with a new MAR-K bed with Pro-Tilt bed floor. When the bed is raised it allows visibility and access to the the painted air tanks and air compressors. Some of the custom bed features include bed rail lights, hidden tailgate latch and wood floors. The truck has a great stance on US Mags Rio Grande forged aluminum wheels that are 20x8.5 on the front and 20x10 on the rear. The interior was designed to appear modern and sporty. It was upholstered by Elevated Design located in Phoenix, Arizona. The factory dash was wrapped with leather and the glovebox was trimmed with carbon fiber. A valance was added under the dash for the restomod air vents. A custom water fall full length console was added which was also wrapped with leather and trimmed with carbon fiber. The console houses two additional restomod air vents, 7” Pioneer head unit, Vintage Air Conditioning controls, Lokar electronic sport shifter, cup holders, Accuair ECU and key pad. The sound system consists of JL Audio amplifiers, Morel speakers and JL Audio 13.5” subwoofer. The Snowden bucket seats and portion of door panels were covered with Vegan leather with diamond stitched pattern inserts on the seats. Some of the interior custom features include Dakota Digital HDX gauges, polished tilt steering column and steering wheel with black wrap, billet door hardware, GSI pedal assembly and black carpeting. The engine compartment is highly detailed throughout. The painted firewall, inner fenders and radiator support were fabricated. It’s powered by a GM Performance 6.2-liter LS3/525HP V8 crate engine that runs excellent. The engine was dressed with custom carbon fiber valve covers, All American billet front runner system and air intake that exits inside the inner fender. The engine is cooled by an aluminum radiator with aluminum overfill canister. The engine breathes through Ultimate stainless steel headers and 3” complete Borla exhaust system. The engine is coupled to a GM Performance 6L80E automatic transmission. The power is transferred to a new Currie Enterprises POSI rear end 3.70 gears. The undercarriage is also highly detailed throughout. The body sits on a GSI Machine and Fabrication chassis that was powder coated. It’s equipped a GSI fuel tank with Aeromotive pump.
