Here we have a 1949 Chevy 3100 1/2 ton pickup This is a totally original patina field find truck nothing has been done to this truck except floor repair and the modifications Full description towards bottom. Interior Engine Fabrication Work General DescriptionThis is a 1949 chevy 3100 3 window cab with a 1974 Camaro, we bought a fully running Camaro to build this truck we used everything possible out of the doner car to get this truck upgraded to power steering, power brakes, disk brakes in front. The truck came from a small town called Cuba in northern New Mexico from an old man on a small property in town he had lost the title and so when I researched it, it was totally out of the system he said it had been parked since the 70s. So the local MVD has no record of it. This is a poor mans truck or poor boy style with the original swamp cooler and jerry can we even have an old aftermarket heater that came with the truck which will also be included. RUST The trucks main rust issue was in the front cab corners. We decided to leave this truck as it was when we pulled it out of the field but we also wanted to make it fully functional so the outer cab corner skins were left as is but the floor was repaired and is now very solid the truck has its natural surface rust throughout the body also the bed has rust in the rear bed pillar corners behind the taillights. ENGINEThis was the original engine out of the 74 Camaro numbers matching original two barrel carburetor has very good compression car ran rough when was purchased it, needed new wires and plugs and it ran very strong after some tuning was done then we were able to drive the car with no problem.Has a HEI distributor new intake, valve cover, and oil pan gaskets as far as the millage on the engine its is unknown. TRANSMISSIONEquipped with a turbo 350 short tail shaft ran great but was not shifting into 3rd gear so we had it rebuilt SUSPENSION1974 Camaro subframe with disk brakes, power steering, power brakes, and air bags. Rear suspension is also out of the Camaro 10 bolt and leaf springs C-notched with air bags over rear axle. The complete truck came off the frame in order to make the modification more easier and accurate this truck is squared and modified correctly (SEE OUR PREVIOUS BUILDS TOWARDS BOTTOM) This is not our first build. AIR RIDE SYSTEMThis is a very simple system consisting of 1 Viair compressor, one 5 gallon tank, 4 AirSlammit dumps that are controlled by two switches in the dash. 1 front up and down and 1 rear up and down. pressure switch is a 140 psi on and 180 off. System operates only when key switch is on WIRE HARNESS & ELECTRICALEverything is powered by the Camaro wire harness the following circuits are operational. Fuel gauge, dash lights, running lights, high beams, taillights, stop lights, turn signals, four way flashers, dome light oil pressure coolant temperature and cigarette lighters. Non working components are windshield wipers speedometer and grille parking lamps INTERIORWe also decided to keep the original patina in the interior and just added the door panels and kick panels no head liner. The seat is the rear seat from the Camaro and was modified to fit the original seat frame but sits lower and more comfortable than the original. New carpet with padding underneath GLASS We have installed a new windshield glass along with new rubber the driver side is not cracked but is old the passanger and rear glass is cracked HOW DOES IT RIDE?Breaks have excellent response engine is strong transmission is smooth and can cruise 80 down the highway no problem. The ride can be bumpy or very bouncy if air is not adjusted right. especially since there are no shocks on the truck. She is fast for a two barrel and not as fuel hungry and can still burn rubber.
