Vehicle description
1955 Chevy step-side short bed pickup. This is the rare, coveted Big Back Window model. It has a 355 V8 motor with a B&M Magna charger with 8 lbs of boost. The motor was rebuilt with Corvette aluminum bum heads, roller rockers, high volume oil pump, new rods, rings, bearings and March pulleys. It also has custom block hugger headers with stainless exhaust and Magnaflow mufflers. This is all backed up by a freshly rebuilt Turbo 400 Transmission with an upgraded shift kit and torque converter. The truck runs and drives great with a ton of power, estimated 400 hp. It has power steering with a telescopic, tilt wheel. Additionally, the truck has a very nice rear end setup with a Dana Jaguar rear end with onboard disc brakes. It has a Mustang front end with rack and pinion and front disc brakes with a floor mounted cylinder. The front end also has air ride suspension. Vintage air is installed and works great. This was a frame-off restoration with no rust. The body is straight with a wood kit in the bed. The fuel tank has been relocated nicely below the bed. The gas door has been removed and filled in, the front bumper has been deleted and frenched in, the door handles have been removed with smoother flip-up handles frenched in, the stereo antenna has been frenched in, and the rear tail lights have also been frenched in using 59 caddy tail lights. The interior has a custom color matched console with a built-in touchscreen Kenwood stereo and Kicker 6X9"s mounted in the sides. It has Dakota Digital gauges, new carpet and new power seats. The dash has been smoothed out with headlight knobs and such relocated to the console. Everything under the hood is beautiful with the firewall smoothed out and items such as the battery and master cylinder relocated under the truck. This is a very nice truck that is also for sale locally. Although I"m mostly interested in selling the truck, I might consider a partial trade.
