Engine & Drivetrain

When you open the hood you will see the iconic small block 283 cubic inch Chevrolet engine with the block, heads, and valve covers painted Chevrolet Orange with the factory Chevrolet black painted air cleaner, exhaust manifolds leading back to the exhaust, and air conditioning.

The engine pushes back the horsepower to the automatic transmission puts the power to the ground via the Chevrolet painted wheels with chrome 55 hubcaps wearing wide whitewall tires making the ride great and safe.

The engine is also installed in the very nice clean, painted, and detailed engine compartment.

Interior

The interior shows a similar level of restoration and is a factory correct redo that shows its authenticity in the restoration. The factory-correct two-tone turquoise offsetting the yellow/white exterior color to give this a nice flow inside and out.

It has a bench front seat and matching rear seat as well as the door panels and the headliner, the smooth twin cowl dash looks great as does all the factory gauges and controls with the air conditioning down below the dash.

It has the automatic shifter on the column, side vent windows, artful factory Chevrolet steering wheel, pushbutton radio, as well as green carpets and black floor mats.

Exterior

Our 55 wears a factory Yellow and India Ivory two-tone paint job that you will marvel at and it remains its authentic appearance enhanced by the best in modern paint.

The chrome and brightwork is nice as is the chrome front and rear bumpers and the non-pitted hood bird ornament. The trunk is restored too with a black trunk mat and spare tire and wheel.
