For Sale: 1955 Chevrolet Cameo in Sequim, Washington

Vehicle Description

Take a look at this GORGEOUS !! - EXTREMELY RARE !! - RESTORED !! - 1955 Chevrolet Cameo Carrier 3100 1/2 Ton Pickup !! I say EXTREMELY RARE as they only produced 5,220 Cameo Pickups in 1955 which is the FIRST and they tell me the BEST year of Cameo pickup production !! Chuck Jordan, who later became the Vice President of Design for General Motors, designed the Cameo Pickup inspired by guided missile carriers he saw while stationed at Cape Canaveral. We have been asked to sell this GORGEOUS Cameo Pickup for the current retired Washington State owner who is a friend of ours. He has owned this Cameo pickup for the last 35+ years and as you can tell it was his pride and joy for sure !! He recently suffered a back injury which prevents him from enjoying this beauty so he decided to sell it to someone that can get as much enjoyment out of it as he has in the last 35+ years, LUCKY YOU !! If you have been thinking of restoring a truck, you know what it costs to do a restoration like this not to mention the hundreds of hours involved ! Most of the vintage trucks you find restored or not have the old beat up beds because lets face it they were bought to be used as trucks but not this BEAUTY !! Careful to not let this one get away !! It still retains it's - FACTORY ORIGINAL - Chevrolet A-pillar mounted VIN tag and an - ORIGINAL STYLE - 1955 Chevrolet Truck operators manual, both of which are shown in pictures. This is a NICE - DRY - SOLID - California- Washington State - Western truck since brand new and it shows !! The owner told us that this truck sold new in the Los Angeles, California area. He bought the truck 35+ years ago from a family in Los Angeles and then brought the truck to his home in central California. About ten years ago he moved to Washington state and brought the truck with him to his new home where it still resides today. THIS IS A QUALITY TRUCK FOR SURE THAT IS READY TO SHOW OR ENJOY !! *** THIS TRUCK IS LOCATED IN SEQUIM, WASHINGTON STATE AND WILL NEED TO BE PICKED UP BY THE BUYER OR THE BUYERS AGENT FROM THAT LOCATION *** At the heart of this Cameo pickup is a VERY STRONG !! - REBUILT !! - Chevrolet 327 CID V8 motor that is running VERY well indeed. According to the owner this 327 motor came out of a 1964 Chevrolet Corvette !! The motor also sports an ORIGINAL STYLE 4 barrel intake manifold, Custom High Flow exhaust headers, ORIGINAL STYLE "Chevrolet" scripted valve covers, ORIGINAL STYLE Air cleaner housing and an ORIGINAL STYLE Carter 4 barrel carburetor with electric choke, Etc... !! Sounds GREAT too with the - "THROATY" - factory style true dual exhaust system with dual chrome tips. The engine is backed by the - SMOOTH - ORIGINAL- OPTIONAL - REBUILT - 4 speed - "Hydra-Matic" - automatic transmission that also functions very well. The BEAUTIFUL !! matching Dune Beige and Tan Vinyl interior is in VERY NICE condition with a VERY NICE Dune Beige vinyl bench seat, VERY NICE Matching Dune Beige Vinyl and chrome accented door panels, NICE ORIGINAL Chevrolet steering wheel, VERY NICE Dune Beige vinyl headliner, VERY NICE Dune Beige Vinyl sun visors, VERY NICE Tan carpeting, VERY NICE Factory Gauge clusters and a VERY NICE Matching Dune Beige dash. This Cameo pickup comes well equipped with factory wing windows, factory gauge clusters with 100 MPH speedometer, aftermarket Sun "Super Tach" tachometer, original dual chrome side view exterior mirrors, working AM / FM / 8 track player stereo radio, original style MotoMeter clock which is no longer working, factory power wipers, Hydro-Vac power hydraulic brakes from a 1 1/2 ton truck, factory fold-down tailgate, factory back up lights, rear mounted ball hitch and a factory rear hidden spare tire compartment. The owner had the trailer hitch custom made and only used it a couple of times to pull his small utility trailer. He left it on all of these years because he felt like it worked like a rear bumper protecting the hard to find rear Cameo parts, it can be removed by the new owner pretty easily if they choose to do so. All of the black rubber weatherstripping is soft, supple and in good condition. This truck is an GREAT RUNNING and GORGEOUS looking NICE - DRY - SOLID - California - Washington State - western truck since brand new and it shows !! These vehicles have an appreciative group of owners, any of which would be pleased to own this one. The suspension and drive line are in good working order as well as the electrical system. This 1955 Chevrolet 3100 Cameo Carrier 1/2 Ton Pickup is a great investment opportunity and it is priced right ! It is in BEAUTIFUL condition from top to bottom and from front to back and is ready for your local show and shine. It will not disappoint someone looking for a clean example of a sought after and hard to find vintage collector truck that is not seen at every stop light for sure. If you have been looking but cannot find a cool vintage Chevy Cameo truck worthy of your hard earned money look NO further because this is the one ! The BEAUTIFUL - Two-Tone - Cardinal Red and Dune Beige exterior finish on this Truck is EYE POPPING BEAUTIFUL !! showing very little to no wear other than several very small chips that have been touched up and imperfections but is still bright and shiny and looks STUNNING as you can clearly see in the video and the 100 ADDITIONAL PICTURES !! All of the ORIGINAL light lenses and reflectors are clear, bright, UN CRACKED and BEAUTIFUL !! The CLEAN - SOLID - STRAIGHT bed is in GREAT condition including the Oak wood slats and also includes a VERY NICE Matching Dune Beige Vinyl tonneau cover. Check out the BEAUTIFUL Pro Comp custom chrome wheels with spinner center caps wrapped in a set of NEARLY NEW white lettered steel belted radial tires, boy does this combination look OUTSTANDING on this truck and really gives it that clean "OLD SCHOOL HOT ROD" look, TOO COOL !! All of the ORIGINAL exterior chrome and stainless steel exterior body trim on this pickup is in VERY NICE condition including a VERY NICE ORIGINAL Chrome front bumper, VERY NICE ORIGINAL Chrome front and rear bumper guards, VERY NICE ORIGINAL Chrome rear bumper ends, NICE ORIGINAL badging, VERY NICE ORIGINAL Chrome taillight housings and a VERY NICE ORIGINAL Chrome grill and headlight surrounds.

I looked underneath and also included photos below, again this car is a NICE - DRY - SOLID - California - Washington State - western truck since brand new and boy it shows !! In my opinion you can't find much nicer ORIGINAL FLOORS than the ones on this BEAUTY !! Please pay close attention to the video and THE 100 ADDITIONAL PICTURES and this description as they will answer most if not all of your questions. If you need to speak to me my name is Kris and my telephone number is (208) 585-7155 or you can email if you prefer. As always I tried to get as thorough and in depth with the photographs as possible.
