There is something undeniably evocative about a classic pickup that blends the nostalgia of open roads with the confidence of modern performance. This 1955 Chevrolet 3100 delivers exactly that - keeping the timeless lines of a mid-50s Chevy truck while incorporating tasteful upgrades that make it a driver you can enjoy today. With its combination of strong curb appeal and modern mechanicals, it is equally at home at weekend shows or on spirited drives.
Finished in a full repaint with a deep high-gloss finish, the truck shows well as a driver with a chrome grille, polished American Racing wheels, and custom touches like relocated fuel filler access in the bed. A wood bed adds traditional style, while upgraded lighting and trim details bring a cleaner, updated appearance. The stance is enhanced with QA1 coilovers at each corner and a 4-link rear setup, giving the truck a confident, sporty posture.
Inside, the cabin strikes a balance of classic and modern. Cloth bucket seats offer comfort and support, while a chrome tilt column and polished pedals add a custom touch. A digital dash cluster replaces factory gauges for precise readouts, and an upgraded audio system rounds out the driver-focused setup.
Power comes from a 350 cubic-inch V8 crate engine topped with Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection and an Edelbrock Performer RPM intake. Paired with a TH350 three-speed automatic, the combination delivers reliable starts, smooth acceleration, and plenty of cruising power. A rack and pinion steering conversion sharpens response, while four-wheel power disc brakes bring confident stopping power.
With just over 3,200 miles on the build, this 3100 has been enjoyed sparingly and remains fresh in presentation. Build receipts and photos accompany the sale to support its history and upgrades.
This 1955 Chevrolet 3100 represents a thoughtfully built resto-mod - one that maintains classic appeal while offering modern convenience and drivability. It is a truck designed to be driven and enjoyed, not just admired. Call today to schedule a closer look and test drive.
