1955 Chevrolet LS3 Resto Mod
Car History
The 1955 Chevrolet is considered a huge turning point for Chevrolet
and has become an icon of the 1950's Chevrolets.
The '55 Chevy was the first successful Chevrolet with an optional
V8 engine. The new 265-cubic-inch overhead valve V8 was designed to
be smaller, lighter, and more powerful than previous V8s in the
auto industry.
We have a highly restored 1955 Chevy Rest Mod here at Adventure
Classics that has had a no-expense spared complete restoration that
cost over $80k to build.
Engine & Drivetrain
When you pop the hood you will see this is no 265 cubic inch engine
anymore, you will now see a brand new Chevrolet Corvette LS3 Crate
Engine installed in the very nice clean, painted, and detailed
engine compartment.
The stout LS3 Chevy engine features Corvette Fuel Injection, fuel
rail covers, ram air cold air induction system with the open
element air cleaner, dual exhaust, air conditioning, performance
radiator, power steering and brakes, and much, much more.
The engine pushes back the horsepower to the brand 4L80E automatic
transmission and then to the brand new 9" Ford rear end and it
rolls on 17x7 and 17x8 Foose custom 5 spoke polished mag wheels,
blackwall radial performance tires, and 4-wheel disc brakes, making
the ride great, fast, and safe.
Interior
Because every nut and bolt on the entire car has been redone or
upgraded you can see the workmanship both outside and inside. The
accommodations on the interior include the handsome bench-seat
interior featuring the two-tone aqua and white cloth bench seat and
rear seat, the stock painted steering wheel with a billet
tilt-column, Lo-Car floor shifter, and Vintage Air.
A modern AM/FM Bluetooth radio fits the factory holes and sounds
great. The painted stock dash with stainless trim has updated
gauges to monitor the engine and trans, with all the original style
controls.
Exterior
This Chevrolet has a great body design with the super blue/white
paint job on its smooth and straight panels, trunk, and hood, with
great glass all the way around including the windshield.
It is restored and is stunning! It looks super with the paint
combo, matching interior, chrome bumpers, and chrome tips on the
dual exhaust.

Classics, is without a doubt, one of the best 1955 Chevys on the
