The truck you've always wanted to build is ready to hit the road or trail today. This 1955 Chevrolet 3100 takes the classic big back window body and mounts it on a more modern 4x4 frame. It even has great upgrades like fuel-injected V8 power, an overdrive transmission, unique paint, and a fully custom A/C interior. This truck knows how to instantly announce it's something different. There was over $35k invested in this custom creation, and it all... starts with the paint. The turquoise has a vintage '50 look, but it's a colored satin-finish primer. So it's a new take on a classic color, and that's exactly what this truck loves to do. It straddles the line of vintage and new perfectly. After all, you have the best classic pieces, like the chrome bumpers, shining grille, and big back window. Plus, we all love the look of the oak side rails that match the lumber in the bed. But that matte finish also gives this truck an extra dose of attitude that's furthered by the tall stance and 20-inch black Raceline wheels. But more than just look like it's ready to get down to business, this custom truck is also properly equipped. There's a trailer hitch so you can be the coolest pickup to arrive with everything from a boat to a camper. There's less than 2,600 miles on this build, and the fresh interior really shows it. The hint of cream color on the exterior is seen even more inside, and now the turquoise is there for accenting. Plus, there's plenty of brown in place like the lower door panels and carpeting. We especially like it on the custom two-tone leather seat. It has the classic bench look, but it has nice bolstering for all-day comfort and even built-in cup holders. The dash has the clean and simple look of a classic pickup, but they use the minimal space for well-integrated upgrades like R134a air conditioning, full glowing gauges, and a Kenwood AM/FM/CD touchscreen unit that controls the Bluetooth and back-up camera. The custom experience continues under the hood. The smooth cream-colored side walls of the engine bay give this a very tidy presentation. And don't let the classic Chevrolet script on the valve covers fool you, because this is a very modern motor. This is a 6.0-liter LQ9 motor that has powered a far more generation of Chevy trucks. This fuel-injected powerhouse is supported by everything you want, from serpentine belts to an aluminum radiator. As you look at the undercarriage photos, you see more evidence of how fresh this build is. But the proper 4x4 transfer case and Cooper Discoverer tires means you can get this muddy whenever you like. But for those times when you just want to enjoy this on the road, there are great features, like power steering, front disc brakes, and a 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission w/highway-friendly overdrive. The sale comes complete with receipts documenting thousands $$$$ invested in this custom build. Rarely do you find a total package that's vintage, aggressive, capable, and quite comfortable.
