Details

This 1959 Chevrolet short-bed fleetside big-window pickup underwent a full frame-off, nut-and-bolt restoration. All the original metal was sandblasted and had no rust. It has the original NAPCO transfer case and the original shifter bracket holder riveted to the frame. The Dana 44 axle was changed out at some point. This custom pickup is powered by a fuel-injected 5.3-liter LS engine with dual exhaust backed by a 4L60E automatic transmission with 3.73 gears. It rides on 33x12.50x20 mud terrain tires mounted on 20x12 Savage chrome wheels with Rough Country shocks and stabilizer shocks to match. The laser-straight exterior wears deep Jet-Black paint with four coats of clear that was cut and buffed to a mirror finish, as well as all-new glass, weatherstripping, lights and chrome. The gas tank was relocated to the back under the bed, the tailgate was smoothed and hidden latches were installed. The bed wood was finished in red and black for a Black Cherry finish with four coats of clear. The full custom interior is done in Bright Red - including the door panels, console and headliner - and features Vintage Air, chrome steering column with billet steering wheel, power windows, one-piece window kit, keyless entry, remote start, backup camera, navigation and a nice sound system.
