DISCRIPTION :
Awesome and super solid ol'scool Chevy truck from the Tri Five period ( 55,56,57 ) when chevy introduced it's new design style on cars and trucks.
The truck is fully restored and rebuild but kept in original condition and was painted and coated to look old and original. But don't be confused as from the chassis, the body, the truckbed, the drivetrain and all electrics, it's all solid and restored. No costs were spared to make it as perfect as possible.
The stance of the truck is great with it's lowered suspension and all new Custom alu wheels and new wide tires.
The truck has several special and cool details and drives and handles great. No costs were spared to make sure it looks old but underneath everything is in perfect shape.
This model Truck is one of the best models Truck's ever designed by Chevy we feel especially this rare big window version. With it's stepside truckbed, the large grill and shapes and formes of the cabine and hood, everything on this truck is very styles and the are very desirable but rare to find.
This Truck spend its entire live in California and is a true black plate truck. It was restored by a famous US hotrod shop in Cali to be used as there shoptruck, but when it was completed the just found it to rare and beautifull to spend it's live as a workhorse and so it was sold and came to Europe to find someone who will understand and apriciate it.
This Truck never appears to have any body panels or pieces replaced all is solid and rustfree. The under side of this truck is also clean and freshly coated and all suspension and steering parts were upgraded and rebuild. A fresh rear axle was installed that came from a Chevy El camino with new gears and shafts.
The paint on the Truck just looks awesome and cool !, its a combination of base coat and artificial applied skidmarks and worn look. The truckbed got the same treatment, it's all new but looks old and worn. A special toolbox and other detailes were made to top the looks off. All in all this truck looks like it just came out of a barn after more than 65 years or was found in a desert. But be sure that all is mix of original parts and ol'scool finishes.
Cool little details are the classic searchlight, the bottle openers on the truck bed, the cowboy hat rack, the toolbox, the trompet exhaust tip's, the classic steering wheel, and the hidden tow hook slash licence plate holder just to name some. All very cool little features.
The interior is also very clean and is equipped with a modern stereo, new wiring, heater and blower, all new button's and new floor mat with isolation was installed and a fresh headliner. The interior just looks cool and original, but is rebuild.
The Truck has a great V8 sound and is strong and fast for a 65 year old truck. It has no problem to keep up with modern day traffic and the TH400 super strong trans shifts smooth. The complete drivetrain was rebuild and so were the suspension and steering and brakes. The truck has great brakes due to the modern power brake cilinder and discbrakes. Just a cool and great truck to enjoy as its very reliable.
Roll down the side window, lay your arm on the window felt, put a nice country or blues song on on the stereo, or just listen to that great V8 tune and go cruising to that bar or ice cream parlour on a lasy sunday afternoon... How cool.
These Trive five Truck's are a hot ticket and very desirable and for it's asking price you WON'T find a more nice and honest truck for sure and as stated, it is also completey turn key ready !.
