Vehicle Description
If you were to spare no expense building your dream custom vintage
truck, it would turn out like this 1955 Chevrolet 3100 restomod
pickup. With an amazing paintwork, a luxurious A/C interior, a
show-worthy powerful V8 under the hood, and so much more, you get
the best of everything.
You could get black from the factory in '55, but no one was doing a
cool modern satin finish like this. And with less than 55 miles on
the build, it looks fantastic. It's the perfect way to announce the
performance and custom attitude this truck brings to the streets.
The unique way the light dances off of the new-for-1955 style
really brings a fresh dimension to the sheet metal. This paint also
makes a wonderful contrast to all the high-polish pieces like the
bumpers, grille, badges, bezels, handles, and even in-between the
slats for the real wood truck bed. Take some time to look at the
details, like how the red Chevy logo up front nicely matches the
lettering on the side badges. And yes, this has the sought-after
big wraparound rear glass. They also took their time to blend in
the performance upgrades. After all, Chevy's Task Force pickups
have a forward leaning cab that just begs for a custom aggressive
setup that has been highlight even further in this one. Those of
20-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels have the perfect mixture
of matte and shine, just like the rest of this pickup.
If you liked the hint of red on the outside, then you're going to
love opening the door. The bench seat is covered in supple red
leather, and it has individual bolstering for greater comfort.
Plus, it has all the right luxury amenities like modern R134a air
conditioning, full carpeting, and a retro style AM/FM stereo
w/digital tuner. The best treats are reserved for the driver. You
get a tall hot rod style gearshift. Plus, there's a grippy black
and chrome steering wheel mounted on a tilt column. Beyond that is
a full Equus backlit gauge package that keeps you fully informed on
what's going on under the hood.
Just like the exterior, the engine bay seems to have mastered the
right balance of satin and polish. In fact, we wouldn't be
surprised if this clean and tidy presentation could win you awards
all on its own. But more than a looker, this is also a terrific
power package. It's a 355 cubic-inch V8 that has been enhanced and
fortified with aluminum heads, Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor,
Edelbrock hi-rise intake, fabricated aluminum valve covers,
upgraded pulleys, and headers that feed a set of growling side
pipes. This connects to a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission
that feeds a stout Ford 9-inch rear end. As you look at the
undercarriage photos, you're going to see all the best suspension
upgrades, including a Mustang II front end, tubular control arms,
and a four-link rear. Plus, behind each wheel are adjustable
coilovers and disc brakes. More than just a performer, this was an
all-around thought build. For example, the rear end has
highway-friendly gears, and there's a Champion aluminum radiator
w/electric fans so you the truck stays cool even if you're in
traffic with the A/C pumping.
With so few miles and so many cool upgrades this is a true
attention-grabber. So if you're quick enough to grab it, your dream
machine can be a reality. Call now!
