Vehicle Description
2004 Chevrolet SSR Why This Vehicle is Special Back in the '40s and
'50s Chevrolet built what was then called Classic Advance Design
trucks. Later, Chevrolet built a new concept truck with a
retro-style design that had V8 power, sports car handling, and a
unique look that has become a classic in its own right. We have a
sharp yellow 2004 Chevrolet SSR here at Skyway Classics that is
very clean and has that unique fold-down hardtop as well as factory
mag wheels, red caliper covers, and fat tires. Features 2004

tires Mechanical Our 2004 Chevrolet SSR has the new version of
Chevy's 5.3-liter small-block V8. This all-aluminum pushrod, GM's
first all alloy truck V-8, pumps out 300 horsepower and 331
pound-feet of torque to the rear wheels, by way of a 4-speed
automatic transmission. It all rides on a shortened, reinforced
version of the Trailblazer EXT's hydroformed steel perimeter frame,
which is supported by a firm double A-arm suspension up front and a
5-link rear with a solid axle. This chassis and suspension give the
SSR cornering capabilities way beyond those of a typical pickup,
turn in is quick, and front plow mild, body roll is minimal, and
feedback from the suspension and tires first rate. Stopping the SSR
are 4-wheel disc brakes with standard ABS, which brought it down
from 60 in a good average distance of 132 feet. It all looks
factory stock in a clean engine compartment with all the correct
factory components like air conditioning, power steering,
four-wheel disc brakes, and factory mag wheels and grippy black
sidewall performance tires. Interior The SSR's exterior is matched
by a slick cockpit that's both custom stylish and Chevy efficient.
Brushed SSR trim provide a nice contrast to the dark dash and
doors, while power buckets provide good long distance ride comfort.
The main gauge cluster is super with controls for the AM/FM/CD
audio system are clear and easy to use, as are the simple climate
controls. It has sculpted bucket seats, a color-matched center
console, power windows, power locks, power seats, power mirrors,
cruise control, key-less entry, ice-cold air conditioning, and
stereo radio system. Exterior Our SSR retro machine has a legendary
curvy style with modern streamlining covered with slick factory
yellow paint that has the original deep luster. Chevrolet trucks in
the 1950s had a lot of chrome and stainless and they carried over
that retro theme as well machine as there is plenty of bright work
on the grille, door handles, and the running boards with shiny
chrome mag wheels alloys for an extra aggressive stance. Super fat
front fenders bulge out from a plunging, wedge-shaped hood. While
in the rear, the sporty cargo box is flanked by even fatter
fenders. But the slickest exterior feature, and the core of the
SSR's appeal, is the power folding hardtop. Just press the switch
on the center console, and the two roof sections retract into a
compact vertical storage bay. And this transforms the SSR from a
funky pickup into an open-air custom cruiser. Conclusion Our 2004
Chevrolet SSR that we have here at Skyway Classic that has a V8
engine and a drop-top hardtop is a classic already today, and
certain to be in the futur
