1956 Chevrolet 3100 Resto Mod Pickup Truck Why This Car Is Special Early in the 50's the Chevrolet Task Force trucks were built as work trucks and they ran from late 1955 through 1959. In 1956 they had a wider hood emblem, two-piece fender emblems that were mounted above horizontal fender line, and it was the last year for egg crate grille.

Exterior Our 56 is painted in a deep and flashy red flowing over the 3100s lines and this pickup represents the first of the pickups that were actually styled by designers rather than merely engineered.

The paint is in excellent condition and this truck gets a ton of attention anywhere you go. It took 6 gallons of PPG Victory Red and 5 gallons of Clear Coat to paint it! Enhancing the upscale look is the chrome bumpers, restored grille, step-side bed, chrome mirrors, red painted inside bed rails, wood bed floor with slats trimming it, and the iconic rear tailgate with the Chevrolet logo on it.
