1955 Chevrolet Truck 502 BBC TH400 Hot Rod Pro Street

4,200 miles since completion in 2002.

3 inch chop top (Chop done by Kenny Baker. Elmer, MO a.k.a. 'The Chopper' - Look him up )

502 ci V8 with 442 HP

Turbo 400 Transmission (It acted like it might of been slipping last time I drove i, not for sure)

9 inch Ford rear end (non posi)

Power 4 wheel disc brakes

Custom built 6x2 chassis (built back when you could not buy full frames for these trucks)

Art Morrison Mustang II front tubular a-arms with power steering and a ladder bar setup on rear end, alsoArt Morrison

Coil overs shocks on all 4 corners(Chassis was built for air ride, so truck would set on the ground)

ET wheels (Rear wheels made with a custom offsetfor narrowed rear end)

Custom built Stainless Steel Fuel Tank(18 gal) with remote electric fuel pump

Remote jump battery post

Leather interior with power windows and airconditioning (R12 system that needs charged, I will supply 2 cans to charge system)

Both Bumpers were flipped upside down,the front was pie cut and corners pulled in, rear was shortened and filled inthe top so exhaust could be brought out the rear.

Oak wood bed (The rear fenders and bed boxsheet metal was GM NOS)

The paint on the truck is still in pretty goodcondition, it has a few bad spots that I have put in the pictures, pain twasa custom mi, (I have a full unopened gallon of the paint, reducer, and hardenerthat go with the truck)

I have owned this truck for 34 years, I never plannedon selling it so when it was painted the VIN tag(which matches thetitle) and weight tag were taken off and never put back on, I have both of them. New owner will be responsible for getting them on the truck, as each statehas different laws for dealing with them.

There are lots of custom touches done to thistruck, and many that I am forgetting to mention. It is an older build that'sstill in great shape. You can drive as is, do a few updates to it as you go.

I am putting a reserve on it, but once I decideto sell something its going to go. So, if it gets close to the reserve Willlower it. This truck will probably sell for penny's on the dollar as to whatwas invested at the time of the build. Most of you know the cost to build thisquality of truck and what it would cost today.

Truck was featured in Classic Trucks magazine.

I would encourage all bidders, or representativeof yours to come and inspect the truck before purchase. I have a lift, so a full inspection can be done and all additional questions can be answered at that time. There will be NO inspections done after sale of thetruck!

The truck is being sold AS IS with NO implied warranty!

I have a good friend listing the truck for me as he has been selling on eBay for awhile, so if you need more information, you are welcome to call me directly at 785-418-5667 after 4 PM CST (if you call earlier than 4, leave your name and number and I will call you back after 4 PM CST). My name is Scott.
