1955 Chevrolet 3100

Description

Beautiful, custom, powerful, and affordable – this 1955 Chevrolet 3100 pickup is everything you want in a vintage and attention gabbing pickup, right down to the performance small-block under the hood.

The color is officially a dark metallic green, but really we should call it emerald. Add to this the bumpers, grille, badges, bezels, handles, and all other trim that shine like new mirrors. The full package looks particularly good because the new-for-'55 styling of Chevy's Task Force pickups have a forward leaning cab that just begs for a custom aggressive setup like this one. In fact, this series seems destine for street rod investment with the wraparound windshield and extra flair in the fenders (especially the rear). And speaking of the rear...yes, this is a rear BBW (Big Back Window) truck! The final touch is the real wood truck bed with the correct alternating plank widths.

More investment in this custom truck is instantly apparent the moment you open the door. There you see the low back bucket seats that wouldn't look out of place in a vintage Corvette, except these have green inserts to match the exterior color. In fact, not only does the paint on the outside match the door panels and dash, but also the custom diamond-stitched headliner is even coordinated. But that's not the real diamond that will get your attention. You'll love the custom diamond-plate center console that contains the welcomed cup holders, and it's home to the B&M performance shifter, too. You'll grab that with your right hand, and the Grant three-spoke sports steering wheel fits comfortably in tour left. This Chevy was built for performance, and there's a Sunpro tach mounted on the tilt steering column and a set of auxiliary gauges in the center. There's even an upgrade to an AM/FM stereo with auxiliary hookup so you can customize you playlist in your custom truck.

But the best upgrade is under the hood. This one has been upgraded to a Chevy 350 cubic-inch V8 that's show-ready thanks to features like the shiny valve covers, air cleaner, radiator shroud, and steel-braded hoses. But, beyond this style is plenty of substance. The motor inhales deeply through a Holley four-barrel carburetor with electric choke, and it exhales with authority through Headman Headers. This makes for a pickup that fires up on command and offers a sweet rumble through the dual exhaust. This power reliably gets to the ground via GM's TH400 three-speed automatic and modern Cooper Cobra tires.

This Chevy combines vintage looks with modern conveniences for one very cool package. The best part is you can pick up this custom pickup for a lot less than it would cost for you to build it. Call today!!
