When it comes to vintage American pickups, few stand as tall as
this 1955 Chevrolet 3100. Its bright red exterior catches your eye
immediately, sitting on 15-inch wheels wrapped in 235/70R15 tires,
it ensures that the ride is as smooth as it is capable. The
tailgate, a custom smoothed piece, adds a unique touch, while the
minimal brightwork keeps it tastefully simple. Painted bumpers and
headlight bezels give this truck a modern yet classic appeal.
Inside, the black vinyl bench seat and matching door panels are
both stylish and practical. The interior features a mostly original
style with a few modern additions, such as a cooling fan and oil
pressure sensor. The rubber floor matting and added temperature
gauge enhance its functionality without losing its vintage feel.
Manual steering keeps things old-school, but the added tachometer
brings a hint of modern precision to your driving experience.
Powering this 3100 is a 327 cubic inch V8 engine, a significant
upgrade from the original inline-six. Rebuilt about 10,000 miles
ago, it breathes through an Edelbrock intake topped with a
Quadrajet 4-barrel carburetor. The four-speed manual transmission
channels power to the rear wheels, while drum brakes at all corners
provide stopping power. The dual exhaust system likely gives this
pickup a throaty growl befitting its muscular powerplant.
