Description:
THIS… is a 1955 Chevrolet 3100 Short Bed, finished in Deep Red over a tan interior.
Under the hood is a nicely built 350ci V8 featuring a mild camshaft, polished Edelbrock intake, Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor, and headers, breathing through a throaty dual exhaust that exits beneath the bed-side steps. Output is estimated at approximately 300 horsepower, and the seller believes there are 29,450 miles on the engine and drivetrain since restoration.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 700R4 automatic overdrive transmission with a Lokar shifter. The engine bay is cleanly detailed, highlighted by a smoothed firewall finished with stainless steel panels.
Handling and braking are enhanced by a Nova front clip equipped with power steering and power front disc brakes, along with a front stabilizer bar and a lowered stance for an aggressive appearance. The truck rides on 20-inch Riddler wheels wrapped in 235/35R20 tires at all four corners.
Additional highlights include a 12-bolt rear end with highway-friendly gearing and a clean undercarriage that shows no rust issues. This 3100 is reported to be a fun and easy-driving hot rod that sounds as good as it looks.
