Description of 1955 Chevrolet Other Pickups NAPCO

When it comes to classic trucks, few are as rare or interesting as the early factory optioned NAPCO GMs. While you could order a 4Ã—4 system directly from NAPCO and install it on any truck, part way through 1955 GM decided to offer it as a factory option on their mid-year redesigned trucks. If you know your truck history, you know that in 1955, GM started the year building their previous truck design and then part way through '55 they began to offer their "second series" of the newly designed Task Force trucks. Since they came to market fairly late in the year, they didn't manage to build too many second series trucks and of those, even fewer were optioned with the NAPCO Power-Pak. Thetruck might look a little rough and it is missing its original truck bed, but other than that it is actually complete and quite solid throughout. Having spent its life on a farm in Montana, it has surface rust and the signs of use you'd expect to see on any old farm truck. The cab corners and floors are solid, but there is some rust forming in the door jambs that should be dealt with sooner rather than later. The passenger side door shows a battle scare or two, but you might be able to straighten it out or find a replacement door.Unfortunately, the original engine is stuck. It's still there, but I haven'thad any luck getting it to turn by hand. Replacement inline sixes are out there and aren't terribly expensive. You might be able to rebuild the original or with some soaking I'm sure it can be freed. All of the really important parts are still present. I took photos of both differentials and the 2-speed transfer case so that you can verify the numbers if you like.THIS IS A SUPER RARE TRUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!Due to the rush to get the second series trucks to market, NAPCO had to rush to adapt to the newly introduced design. Given how short the 1955 run was for these trucks, very few received the 4Ã—4 system. Add in the rough lives that most of them lived and there can't be too many left. There aren't any records on exact NAPCO production numbers, but overall production for the second series of 1955 trucks was quite low, so it's probably safe to call this the Holy Grail of Chevy 4Ã—4 trucks. Honestly, the only Chevy truck I can think of that is possibly rarer and more desirable is the Cameo.I want to see this truck go to a good home, where it can be appreciated for the amazing piece of automotive history that it is.
