Details

This 1955 3100 truck has been beautifully completed and painted in Triple Jet Black, with beautiful body lines. The body has been modified with a chopped top and rake angle with a 6” drop in front and 4” drop in the rear, shaved door handles and a power retractable antenna. The front hood was dropped 1-1/2” to give an aggressive look to the front of the truck. The rear of the truck was widened 4” on each side and the bed floor was raised to accommodate large drag radials on the rear wheels. The suspension was upgraded with air ride on the rear (air over leaf), and replaced with a 1990 Ford Aerostar cradle and suspension. Custom A-arms for upper and lower and new front coil springs were installed as well. It features a custom steering shaft with Ididit chrome tilt steering column and Billet Specialties steering wheel. This custom pickup is powered by a new 350ci small-block Chevrolet engine equipped with short-block Hooker headers and MagnaFlow dual exhaust pipes, backed by a Turbo 350 3-speed automatic transmission with B&M hammer ratchet shifter. The truck is also equipped with new power rack & pinion steering with a March pulley system, polished aluminum water pump and pulleys, GM high-output cylinder heads, high-rise intake manifold with 600 cfm Slayer Series electric choke and Quick Fuel Technology carburetor. It has all-new brakes, including new cylinder, lines, new front disc brakes and new drum brakes in rear. The interior features recovered seats from a 2002 Lincoln LS with power and lumbar in gray with orange stitching, a new console with Pioneer sound system, all Dakota Digital gauge cluster, new switches and new carpet.
