1954 Chevrolet 3100 5-Window Pickup – Classic Style with a Modern Drivetrain

This 1954 Chevrolet 3100 5-Window Pickup combines timeless vintage styling with the solid foundation of modern driveline upgrades. A great platform for improvement or customization, the major mechanical work is already done—ready for someone to take it to the next level and make it their own.
Under the hood sits a 5.3L LS/Vortec fuel injected engine paired with a 4L60 four-speed automatic transmission, delivering performance that far surpass the truck’s original setup. Dual exhaust exiting in front of the rear wheels provide a deep, confident sound.

The suspension has been updated with tubular control arms and coil springs in the front and traditional leaf springs in the rear.. Manual front disc and rear drum brakes provide stopping power. The truck rides on Boss 5-spoke wheels wrapped in 225/40-18 front and 245/35-20 rear tires, giving it a more aggressive stance.

Finished in bright blue glossy paint, the exterior presents well at a glance, though it’s best described as driver quality with some imperfections. The desirable 5-window cab, good chrome bumpers and grille, and split windshield all add classic appeal. Additional exterior features include LED turn signals and tail lights, a rear roll pan, and a wood bed floor, tying together vintage looks with subtle updates.

Inside, the cabin sports a two-tone blue vinyl interior with full door panels and black carpeting. The dash is fitted with Dolphin gauges (Speedo, Fuel, Oil, and Volts), and the billet steering wheel on a tilt column adds a custom touch. Billet window cranks and door handles complete the interior details.

While the truck is in fair condition overall and an older build, this is ideal for a builder or hobbyist looking to refine it further. Overall, this 1954 Chevrolet 3100 LS-Powered 5-Window Pickup offers a mix of originality, upgraded performance, and potential—a classic Chevy with a modern heart, ready for finishing touches and personal flair.
