Vehicle Description
Chevrolet's timeless Task Force trucks are American legends. So,
how do you make a classic that's already as cool as this 1955 step
side even more desirable? You start with a roster of reliable
hardware that's wrapped in an ultra-straight body, throw in some
modern comfort and power, and layer it all in striking street rod
swagger. Like your pick-ups both head-turning AND fun to drive?
This awesome 3100 stepside is just what you've been looking
for!
SHOW and GO
Fully sorted and ready to roll, this clean cruiser is the
beneficiary of a detailed, ground-up restoration that mixes
polished poise with proven athleticism. All that lovable charm was
carefully sealed in mile deep black two-stage paint. Great effort
was taken during the paint and body stage which is incredibly
evident in the results. Ultra straight lines and panel fit that
Chevrolet could have only dreamed of in 1955, and a finish worthy
of taking home a trophy at any meet up. Restored chrome, finished
oak bed floor, updated lighting, and a stylish wheel and tire combo
round out a sophisticated, almost tuxedo inspired look.
Modern LS V8 POWER
Pop the hood and you'll find a reliable and powerful 5.3L LS V8
primped and ready to roll! A polished aluminum sheet metal intake
dumps supplies the fuel, while stainless steel shorty headers take
it away. A smoothed and body color matched engine compartment
compliments a polished serpentine accessory drive. And a beefy
aluminum radiator with electric fan keeps things cool. Engine power
is harnessed and moderated by a fresh 4L60E automatic overdrive
transmission, allowing comfortable engine rpms at highway
speeds.
ENJOY THE DRIVE
Slide under this rig and you'll find a complete S10 chassis,
sourced for its modern geometry and ride. At the front, independent
tubular A arms and an anti-sway bar support power steering and
power disc brakes. In the rear, a heavy duty 9-inch axle pushes
leaf springs and a second set of power disc brakes. All boxes were
checked to make this truck an ideal road trip candidate.
COMFORT MEETS STYLE
Gone is the utilitarian interior, and in its place comfort and
style. Custom power bucket seats wrapped in custom two-tone
upholstery are accentuated by matching custom door panels and
headliner. The dash has been moderized with retro style gauges,
with modern internals, and a modern style center console boasts
plenty of storage, a floor mounted shifter and a cutting-edge touch
screen stereo. The driver feels the road through a polished and
billet steering wheel that laps a polished, tilting column.
