1955 Chevrolet Other Pickups 3100 Description

1955 Chevy 2nd series short box. I purchased this truck from the gentlemen who built the truck from the ground up. I have owned the truck for several years and am now selling it in order to buy a different car. THIS IS NOT A RAT ROD, it is a frame off restoration with the original patina on the body. The very best equipment and parts were used in the build. That very stock looking engine is a full blue printed and balanced roller engine with aluminum heads that is straight nasty making 500+ HP. The truck has just over 2200 miles on it since it was completed over 5 years ago. I have all the receipts from the build as well as a number of pictures.
