Vehicle Description
2004 Chevrolet SSR
The Chevrolet SSR, (Super Sport Roadster), was produced in model
years 2004-2006. Introduced as a retractable hardtop convertible
pickup truck and initially produced with a 5.3 liter 300hp Vortec
5300 V8, the 2005 model had a larger 6.0 liter LS2 Corvette engine
producing 390hp. A Tremec six-speed was available for the first
time in 2005-06 model years.
Did you know there are 17 bow ties on every 2004 SSR? This design
harkens back to the Chevrolet truck designs of the 1940's. Its
defining feature being that it has a retractable convertible top
which folds down in a mere 30 seconds. Oh, and one more thing, this
car is made up of 3,218 parts. Offered for consignment is a 2004
Chevrolet SSR with a custom paint scheme on the exterior and with
ebony leather interior. This Sport Roadster checks all the boxes
with a 5.3 liter power plant and 4-speed automatic transmission
along with that snappy retracting roof. The odometer reads 99,806
title verified actual miles and is ready to go anywhere. A great
opportunity to own a rare, unique and collectible truck with car
like manners.
Exterior
Beautiful Silver paint covers the rounded VW-esque front end, which
is broken up by a single curved integrated bumper flanked by 2
single rounded headlights. The 1940's looking curved horizontal
ribbed grille is below, and a pair of rounded fat fenders house the
headlights. Medium blue metallic straight rounded steel makes up
the roofline which moves downward up front and melts with the
bulbous front chromed badged hood emulating the radiator surround
of old, but with a new twist. This blue drenches all of the uppers
on this truck and works its way down to the upper beltline before
giving the hand off to the silver with a red pinstripe delineation
marker. Integrated door handles work within rounded paneled steel
doors that sport smooth curving rockers at the lowers. Bringing up
the rear is another protruding fender that frames the rounded bed
lid, under which is a place for the fold down hardtop, and a
storage area which is carpeted with oak slat inserts. Bringing up
the rear are dual rounded VW style tail lights, that float above an
integrated rear bumper, and rounded off silver tailgate. Dual
chrome exhaust tips peek out from underneath this bumper. Tinted
glass is noted all around, and standard 5 spoke alloy wheels in 19
inch in front and 20 inch in back form complete the corners.
Interior
A swing of the doors and we are in keeping with the round design
theme with round trimmings and a horizontal trim on black door
panels. Inside we see dual high back leather buckets with power
controls. These are in wonderfully aged condition with come folding
with age but no rips or tears. They are draped in black and have a
metal topped Ultra Silver console racing through them and towards
the dash with 3 supporting gauges tucked under the dash. Sitting
within this is a machined aluminum panel that houses the power
windows, top and traction control toggles as well as the machined
gear shift knob. The dash is all clean with a triple gauge cluster
and is fronted by an original steering wheel. Centrally located is
the factory AM/FM/CD stereo and a 3 some of rounds for the heater
and AC controls.
Drivetrain
Under the hood is a well-kept 5.3 liter V8 which can pump out
300hp. It is fed by electronic fuel injection, and backed by a
4L60E 4-speed automatic tranny. A 3.73 posi rear axle is on the way
back.
Undercarriage
Perusing underneath, we note some surface rust on the usual
suspects, but certainly nothing remarkable. A sturdy frame, floor
pans and hangers for the running boards and their hangers is seen.
The suspension specs out as independent coil springs up front, and
a 5 link coil springs on the rear. Power disc brakes are all
around.
Drive-Ability
A super quick starter, good runner, excellent handler and smooth
cruiser. This is a well buttoned up vehicle as per the test track
with not a single fault to be noted.
If you like retro, like back to the 1940's retro, and reliability
with 300 horses, and a convertible option, you may seriously want
to look into this one. Nice 2-tone colors, great trimmings and the
1940's rounded design, come together to create an interesting build
only on the market for a few years.
