"Featuring some of the most distinguished design in trucks up to that time, the 1955 an '56 Chevrolet pickups used sculpted door and fender panels, a lower flatter hood design with an egg-crate styled grille. The look made it quite clear that they were related to Chevy's passenger cars. In the cab, more glass area and a wrap-around windshield gave the driver a better view of the road, and added to the stylish appearance.  They were an instant success and today are coveted by collectors worldwide"

This beautifully restored example is a true attention getter!  Please let the pictures load (there are over 100) to see the outstanding condition of this classic Chevy!  This is one of the rare vehicles that actually looks better in person than the pictures!  According to the current owner, this truck had a Body off restoration  starting in 2006 and completed in 2008.  Everything from paint, interior, engine, etc. have been meticulously restored to new condition.  The body, paint, and trim are excellent as you can see.  The custom interior has been completely redone and is near flawless!  The undercarriage is exceptionally clean, and dry with no issues.  The 350 engine has been completely rebuilt, it starts, and runs smoothly, and with the custom dual exhaust it has the classic muscle car rumble!  The 350 turbo transmission has also been rebuilt, it shifts nicely and pulls through all gears without hesitation.  The truck rides, and drives tight and straight.  Since the restoration it has only been driven sparingly on nice weekends, or to car shows, and is stored in a heated building when not in use.  The following lists some (but not all) of the work done;
