For Sale: 1955 Chevrolet 3100 in Concord, North Carolina

Vehicle Description

This 1955 Chevrolet 3100 Big Window Restomod sports a Sun Gleam Blue metallic finish that's been aging gracefully for nearly five decades. The 48-year-old lacquer paint gives this truck a look you can't buy off the shelf. Its big black windows amplify the classic profile, while the wooden bed adds a touch of craftsmanship. Chrome 17-inch American Racing wheels, wrapped in BFGoodrich Long Trail T/A tires (235/75R17), provide a modern stance. Custom touches like the relocated gas tank under the bed and 3100 badging showcases this build's attention to detail.

Black and white dominate the interior, creating a bold contrast. The split bench seat, borrowed from a '62 Continental, offers power adjustment and a fold-down armrest for long-haul comfort. Classic Instrument gauges keep tabs on the vitals, while a chrome aftermarket tilt steering column adds a custom touch. Vintage AC keeps things cool when the mercury rises. An AM/FM/AUX stereo pumps tunes through aftermarket lower kick panel speakers, giving you soundtrack control. Over-the-shoulder belts add a measure of safety without compromising the classic look.

A GM Crate 5.7L 350 Ram Jet V8 powers this restomod, mated to a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission. The engine exhales through stock-style manifolds and a FlowMaster muffler, producing a satisfying rumble. Up front, a Mustang II suspension with rack and pinion steering improves handling, while leaf springs and air shocks in the rear maintain that classic truck feel. Power steering and brakes make this big window 3100 easy to maneuver. A GM 10-bolt rear end puts the power down, and an aluminum radiator with a large electric fan keeps temperatures in check, even on the hottest days.
