Description
Lot #1005 - This frame-off-restored 1955 Chevy 3100 custom pickup was recently completed and has less than 100 miles on the build. Finished in DuPont Hot Rod Red, this Resto-Mod truck is powered by a GM Performance ZZ 502ci crate engine pushing out over 500hp and 500 ft/lbs of torque. The engine is fueled by twin Edelbrock carburetors with a chrome intake manifold, and is surrounded by a finished engine bay showcasing a custom and smoothed firewall. It breathes through Sanderson headers with a 3" MagnaFlow exhaust. A TH400 3-speed automatic transmission transfers the power via an aluminum driveshaft connected to a painted Currie 9" posi-traction rear end with 3:08 gears. The upgraded, 4-corner Air Ride Technologies suspension features a TCI front clip with tubular A-arms, rack & pinion steering and a TCI triangulated 4-link rear end. The reinforced and boxed frame has been sanded smooth and painted, and the truck rides on 20" Boyd Coddington wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich rubber. The custom interior sports TMI seats, door panels and headliner, along with tilt steering, a billet steering wheel and shifter, and a set of Auto Meter Antique Series gauges that reside in the custom dash. The customized bed assembly features an oak floor, mini tubs and custom latches on the tailgate. All-new chrome, new aluminum gas tank, new Be Cool aluminum radiator with electric fan, new wiring harness, new glass all around and power windows complete this custom truck.
