When the body style for the 55 Chevrolet was revealed in late 1954
it marked a huge turning point for the car manufacturer. Not only
was it a huge success but was also the first successful Chevy with
the optional V8. This 55 Chevy is a factory V8 210 but has had a
ton of work done to it which results in a beautiful and well
performing Custom Restomod. The car was completely redone around 10
years ago and has been extremely well cared for since. It has been
primarily used as a show car and has only been driven 12,500 since
finished. It is painted in a nice bright Red and White combination
that is in good condition. All of the chrome and stainless is in
good condition as well with no pitting or issues. The body has been
kept mostly stock in appearance but the rear taillights have been
swapped out for LEDs. The stance however is not stock because it is
fully adjustable via the Air Ride system so you can set it to the
perfect ride height and drop it down at shows. It rolls around on
American Racing Torque Thrust wheels with Cooper Cobra Radial G/T
tires.
In exchange for the original 265 ci motor this classic is now
sporting a 383 Stroker motor. It was professionally built and made
to last. It features a Hillborn electronic fuel injection system,
billet valve covers, MSD ignition and lots of chrome. The Hillborn
injection not only increases performance but looks really cool
sitting up top. It also has a Pete Jackson gear drive which along
with the headers, H pipe exhaust, and mufflers which dump out the
side let you know that this thing means business. Keeping it all
cool is an aluminum radiator with electric fan. Paired with the
motor is a new 700R4 OD transmission that shifts smoothly and
converts power back to the 9 inch modular rear end. In additional
to the Air Ride suspension it has a 4 link set up in rear and
tubular A-arms. Other nice features include front disc brakes and
power rack & pinion set up.
The interior features a Red and Beige combo which is in good
condition. It has a split bench up front and full bench in rear.
All of the upholstery and carpet is in good shape. The dash is
painted to match the body and has the stock set up except for the
added AutoMeter white face gauges in a custom bezel. In front of
the driver is a chrome tilt column topped off with a woodgrain
Grant steering wheel and fitted with a aftermarket tachometer. On
the floor is mounted a Hurst shifter and the Air Ride Technology
controls. The trunk is finished nicely as well with a removable
panel that hides the relocated battery and Air Ride equipment.
This clean 55 is in great shape and has a ton of cool features. If
you are looking for a tri five with some Hot Rod flair, you just
found it.
