Chevy’s Advance Design series was the pickup truck to buy from 1947 to 1955. America was gearing up for a post-war boom, and small businesses came to the fore. Countless farmers, traders and blue-collar workers could rely on a Chevy Advance Design truck, the predecessor of the popular C/K Series, and now, Silverado. Today’s 1955 Chevrolet 3100 is a half-ton variant from Dallas, Georgia. So if you want a classic truck that can turn heads as well as cut it on the highway, here’s your ideal candidate.
Exterior and Interior
This 1955 Chevrolet 3100 is largely preserved in stock form, but wears a very prominent red paint job that makes it look kind of like a fire engine if you wish. Then, we’ve got a set of shiny silver alloy wheels in turbine style, with Grand Am Radial G/T tires. The truck’s lights and chrome details remain stock as well. However, popping the tailgate reveals a pristine wood-floored cargo bed that’s definitely meant more for show or clean cargo than a couple of cement bags or a load of two-by-four. A cutout in the cargo bed floor reveals the fuel filler cap and neck. Yes, this truck’s working days are far behind it; now it’s time for a pampered life of retirement. The interior of this 1955 Chevrolet 3100 sees two individual black leather seats, and a dashboard painted in the same color as the body. Most of the period fittings remain, including the heating and ventilation slider controls. The only additions we see are an aftermarket rev counter, a Hurst gear shift knob and an aftermarket steering wheel of a sporty design.
Engine
This 1955 Chevrolet 3100 has got a Chevy 350ci V8 under the hood, which is larger and more potent than any of the stock offerings when the truck was brand new. Power goes to the rear axle via a 4-speed manual transmission. Yes, you row your own gears in this classic truck, which only bolsters its classic vibe. Forget today’s point and shoot EVs or digitally drenched hybrids; this is pure and chaste motoring at its best.
