This 1955 Chevrolet 3100 is a 1/2-ton stepside pickup that was acquired by the seller in 2010 and has since been fitted with a 350ci V8 crate engine, a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission, Vintage Air air conditioning, power steering, and power-assisted front disc brakes. An Edelbrock intake manifold, carburetor, and fuel pump were also added along with stainless-steel headers, a Flowmaster exhaust system, an aluminum radiator, an Ididit steering column, a digital radio, and VDO gauges.
The truck was repainted turquoise with purple pinstripes and Chevrolet lettering on the tailgate under prior ownership around 2007. Features include a wrap-around front windshield, custom seatbelt-style tailgate latches, a wood-lined bed, headlights with integrated turn signals, and a chrome grille and bumpers.
Polished 15″ American Racing aluminum wheels are wrapped in Cooper Cobra tires measuring 235/60. Stopping power is provided by power-assisted front disc brakes. The truck is fitted with power steering.
The cab features bucket seats trimmed in white leather with purple accents and piping, along with color-coordinated door panels and purple carpets. A Vintage Air air conditioning system has been installed along with a digital AM/FM radio with an auxiliary input.
The banjo-style three-spoke steering wheel is mounted on a chrome Ididit column and fronts VDO gauges, including a 120-mph speedometer and auxiliary gauges for voltage, oil pressure, water temperature, and fuel level.
The 350ci V8 crate engine was installed around 2010 and features a March Performance serpentine belt system, stainless-steel headers, and a Flowmaster exhaust along with an Edelbrock intake manifold, carburetor, and fuel pump. Cooling is through a BeCool aluminum radiator with dual electric fans. A replacement fuel tank was installed and the carburetor was cleaned in April 2024.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission.
