For Sale: 1955 Chevrolet 3100 in Lavergne, Tennessee

Sure, the first thing you'll notice about this 1955 Chevrolet 3100 Big Back Window is its standout look. After all, Chevy 3100s rolled off the assembly line with that unmistakable forward-angled front end and a body full of contoured steel - and this one, dressed in very appealing, precisely-applied dark blue paint and rolling on a lowered stance, really shows off its confirmation to perfection. But this vintage truck has plenty more to offer than sheer aesthetics. It's equipped with several aftermarket upgrades that combine to make for a great experience behind the wheel. So, as much as it's a guaranteed conversation piece while harbored in the garage, it's arguably most at home on the road, drawing admiring glances as it passes by.

Inside, you'll find just the comfortable interior you'd want in a truck geared toward regular driving. At its center is a pair of plushly padded, two-tone bucket seats that provide plenty of comfort during even the longest excursions, with an expanse of gray carpeting below that ties in perfectly with them. Just in front of an aftermarket steering wheel perched on its tilting column, the upgraded, fan-shaped instrument cluster is in great shape, harboring its collection of gauges behind crystal-clear glass. A Vintage Air a/c system has been added to the mix to keep things comfortable during more extreme weather, and there's also a Pioneer AM/FM/CD stereo on board to create your own personal soundtrack while out on the road.

This Chevy truck is powered by a strong-running 305 cubic-inch V8 that has logged light mileage since its rebuild, and it pairs with a 4-speed automatic 700R4 transmission with overdrive to make up a drivetrain that offers plenty of performance, while also being ideally suited for low-revving highway driving. Fed by a Holley 4-barrel carb, the engine is decked out with an orange block and air intake that contrast nicely with the adjacent chrome components. An exhaust system that features both an H-pipe and a pair of Flowmaster mufflers creates the perfect rumbling tone for a street-savvy classic like this. The added Heidts Mustang II front end brings some unbeatable benefits, including precise power rack and pinion steering, adjustable coilovers, and power disc brakes to go along with the pair also in the back.
