Description
Lot #805.1 - This classic custom Pro-Touring 1955 big window Chevrolet pickup is powered by a GM Performance ZZ502/502 deluxe Chevy crate engine with aluminum heads, intake manifold and a Holley 870 cfm carburetor. A Be Cool aluminum radiator with dual fans assists in cooling the engine bay and the exhaust is handled by Sanderson headers that connect to a dual exhaust system. A Turbo Hydro 400 3-speed automatic transmission is coupled to a Ford 9" differential with 3:73 posi-traction. Restoration began with media blasting, smoothing the original firewall, and installing a Mustang II front suspension, power rack & pinion steering and Heidts 4-link with pan bar rear suspension, front disc brakes and Air Ride Technologies airbags that enhance the driving performance. The interior elements include: Dakota Digital gauges, Vintage Air with custom bulkhead fittings through the firewall, Lokar shifter, custom leather interior, a leather wrapped banjo steering wheel, and custom sound system with speakers hidden behind the seat. The exterior features an amazing multi stage Candy Cherry paint buried in Matrix clear coat that lights up against the 20" chrome American Racing wheels complete with Falken Ziex tires. The bed of the truck includes red oak flooring with matching Candy Cherry metal strips and a flush-mounted fuel filler for the custom stainless steel fuel tank. This stunning pickup is coupled to a custom chassis that was built to handle the enormous power and 580ft/lbs. of torque from the factory.
