Somebody already did the hard work on this one. With bright blue paint, a cherry wood bed, an enhanced V8, and an A/C interior, all you need to do to have fun immediately is come down and turn the key on this restored 1955 Chevrolet 3100. There were some dark blues you could get from the factory in 1955, but it never looked this good. This pickup is the product of a serious investment in the sheetmetal, and then having... a professional hand spray on the metallic blue with enough clearcoat to make it shine like a true star. In fact, polish is a central theme here with the bumpers, grille, badges, bezels, handles, and all other trim that shine like 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, the series seems destine for performance upgrades investment with the extra flair in the fenders and wraparound windshield. This one even has the rare, big wraparound rear glass, too! The final touch to this package of flash and performance is a set of 15-inch American Racing Torq Thrust wheels. More investment in this custom truck is instantly apparent the moment you open the door. The bench seat is covered in supple leather, and it has individual bolstering for greater comfort. There's even a removable cup holder center console for true individual luxury when you want it. Plus, it has all the right luxury amenities like modern R134a air conditioning, power windows, full carpeting, and an AM/FM/CD stereo. And the best treats are reserved for the driver. You get a wood and chrome Grant three-spoke sports steering wheel. Beyond that is a full Dakota Digital gauge package that glows a cool blue to match the dash and exterior. But the best upgrade is under the hood. This one has a V8 that's show-ready with the painted inner fenders and firewall showcasing the polished motor. The ribbed Edelbrock air topper, matching valve covers, intake, radiator, pulleys, and much more create a terrific shining total package. And beyond the style is the substance of a Chevy 350 cubic-inch V8 that has been upgraded with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, performance intake, and shorty headers that feed the rumbling dual exhaust. Out on the road, the TH400 three-speed automatic transmission, thick front sway bar, power steering, front disc brakes, and Goodyear Eagle GTII tires all come together to give you a total package that can both handle the upgraded V8 power and be easy for cruising. This Chevy combines vintage looks with modern conveniences for one very cool package. It's an attractive classic that's turn-key ready right now. All that's missing is you. Call today!!!
