1955 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup

Many people may not know this and is something that rarely happens. GM in 1955 sold two completely different truck designs….The old body style which was the same body that had been produced since 1947 and the all new body called the Task Force. This might be the biggest body change difference from one year let alone the same year. They were also offered with optional power steering, power brakes and V8 engines. Also, a industry first was the wrap around windshields and wrap around rear windows for the Deluxe models. This particular truck has been lovingly owned by our consignor since 1986 and he did a frame off restoration in the early 1990's. Yes, thirty years ago, however the consignor is also a life long body and paint guy that has done many restorations on older vehicles both personal and for others. The paint looks no older than five years old to me. The chrome, brite work, windows, seals etc look fabulous. The engine is believed to be a 1968 Chevrolet 350 Cubic Inch V8 mated to a Automatic trans. There is no radio or A/C . The heat, vents and lights work and this thing goes down the road so nicely. It starts, sounds and idles better than new. The interior and bed has been done nicely with great attention to detail. This is not a truck that has been filled with bondo and resprayed, it is metal with with the underside looking just as nice.
