1955 Chevrolet Other Pickups 3100 Additional Info:

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.
Let's start with the paint, because it's the first thing that will get people talking. The color is green, but has a beautiful tan accent on the cab that cries vintage. Chrome bumpers, badges, bezels, handles, and all other trim that shine near new. The front grille needs some attention/re-chroming. 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. 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 custom interior green inserts to match the exterior color. In fact, not only does the paint on the outside match the door panels and dash, the tan accent is carried inside as well. Very, very sharp looking.

But the best upgrade is under the hood. This one has been upgraded to a Chevy 327 cubic-inch V8 that's near show-ready thanks to features like the shiny valve covers, air cleaner, etc. But, beyond this style is plenty of substance. The motor inhales deeply through an Edelbrock carburetor with electric choke, and it exhales with authority through a custom exhaust with a red "cherry bomb" straight neck muffler. This makes for a pickup that fires up on command and offers a sweet rumble through the dual exhaust.
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.
