Vehicle Description
The absolutely iconic lines of this 1955 Chevrolet 150 have been
given a modern and powerful Pro Street makeover. After all, this
has slick paint, an upgraded interior, and a performance appearance
that screams there's a dual-quad big block under the hood. So it's
the classic icon that will draw admirers from modern performance
lovers.
This one instantly announces it's something special. After all,
this Chevy was born in the age of pastels, but the blue seen here
has a modern electric-level radiance. So you still get plenty of
the iconic curves you live, and the bright paint to really show it
all off. They updated the look with painted bumpers and custom
pinstriping in place of some trim. It gives this an added hint of
speedy style, and you won't miss the brightwork thanks to the
chrome grille and polished Center Line racing wheels. In fact, the
shine of those wheels draws attention to the extra-meaty Mickey
Thompson tires in the back. And the custom cowl hood with the tall
air grabber peeking out means that people know this is a beastly
Chevy even before you turn the key and let it roar.
Your first impression of the full black interior might be more
restomod than pro street. After all, it's quite stylish, and you
have great upgrades, like cup holders, a center console, full door
panels with armrest, and provisions for air conditioning (the
compressor needs a belt and the system possibly needs servicing.)
The high-back front bucket seats with headrests make for a more
comfortable kind of car, but it's also what you want in a
driver-focused pro street machine. You've got pro-level equipment
like a B&M Quick Silver shifter, Grant GT steering wheel, and
full upgraded gauges - including a large tach with shift light and
other essentials that are on top of the dash so you don't have to
take your eyes off the road. You even have an AM/FM with CD player
hidden in the glove compartment (that will need servicing to work
again).
The smooth blue inner walls of the engine bay do a terrific job of
putting the tidy monster motor on display. This is a 454 cubic-inch
V8 bored .60 over to 496ci total. The motor was installed around
2013. It includes two velocity stack air intakes that each feed an
Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor. You also have a high-rise intake
package, cast valve covers, steel braided lines, AN fittings, an
MSD ignition, MSD high energy coil, an aluminum radiator, and a
wicked set of headers feeding the side-exit dual exhaust. The TH400
three-speed automatic transmission is a stout unit built to handle
big block muscle, and it sends the power to a 12-bolt rear end with
a Trick Flow diff case. And traction bars and those wide tires help
get the power to the pavement. There are even front disc brakes for
added stopping power.
The sale comes complete with build receipts and restoration photos.
This is the iconic Chevy that's built to own the streets. Don't let
something this awesome slip away, call today!
