1955 Chevrolet Pickup 3100 Custom What your looking at is a custom built 1955 Chevrolet Pickup that was built by me with the help of some friends. I've been building this truck for the last 6 years and now that its almost finished, I decided that I wanted to change quite a few things cosmetically. I.E. the grille, headlights, dash, change to a big back window, taillights ETC. Not because there's anything wrong with it, I just want it to be different. I drove this truck daily for a few years till fuel prices went up. This truck is a head turner and a show winner. Won a few trophies in the past years Rose City Roundup - 2009 Peoples choice Billetproof NW - 2009 Best Primer Rod Run to the end of the World - 2009 Sponsors Pick NW Underconstruction Show - 2009 Sponsors Pick Paint Primer under all the paint is Mar-Hyde High build primer and Sherman Williams Etching primer Exterior - Sherman Williams Custom Purple Pearl Satin with a Sherman Williams Eggshell White Base coat with Silver Bass Boat metalflake Interior - Sherman Williams Eggshell White on the upper half of the cab with a Silver Bass Boat metalflake dash that has been lightly buffed to cut down on the glare.
