502-Powered 1955 Chevrolet 3100 Stepside Pickup

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

The 1955 Chevrolet 3100 helped launch Chevrolet’s “Task Force” line, replacing the earlier Advance Design series. Introduced with a more modern, streamlined appearance, it featured a wider grille, wraparound windshield, and improved styling that set the tone for future trucks. The 3100 was a half-ton model known for its durability, versatility, and smoother ride.

This ‘55 3100 underwent modifications beginning in 2023 and was acquired by the seller in November 2025. The stepside pickup body is refinished in blue and black paint and rides on a replacement frame. Power is provided by a fuel-injected BluPrint Engines 502ci V8 and sent to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transmission.

Five-spoke Weld wheels are held by Belltech front shocks and rear coilovers, while braking is handled by front discs and rear drums.

A dual exhaust system exits at the rear or through cutouts, and other exterior details include a windshield visor, polished front bumper, louvered tailgate, and wooden bed slats.

Inside, aftermarket bucket seats are trimmed in tan and brown and separated by a center console that houses a B&M gear selector. Instrumentation consists of a Classic Instruments cluster and a dashboard-mounted AutoMeter tachometer.

This 3100 stepside pickup is offered at no reserve with manuals, parts receipts, a dyno sheet, and a clean Pennsylvania title in the seller’s name.
