1955 Chevrolet 3600 First Series Pickup:

Body-Off Restored with Rebuilt 235 Inline-6 & Custom White Oak Bed

This 1955 Chevrolet First Series 3600 is a rare transition-era pickup that bridges Chevrolet’s beloved Advance-Design generation and the V8-powered Task-Force era that followed. Built only from late 1954 through March 25, 1955, the First Series wears the classic rounded post-war styling while adding a modern open driveshaft. This example has undergone a body-off restoration, with fresh paint, a rebuilt Thriftmaster-style 235ci inline-six, and a long list of new components. A custom White Oak bed with stainless fastenings, new chrome, and freshly trimmed upholstery make it as handsome up close as it is from across the show field. If you’ve been searching for a properly restored First Series truck with real period character, this 3100 deserves a place in your garage.

Engine & Transmission

  • Rebuilt 235 cubic-inch OHV inline-six, the dependable powerplant that defined Chevrolet trucks of the era
  • New radiator for reliable cooling on warm-weather cruises
  • Manual transmission with column shift (“three on the tree”) for an authentic vintage driving experience
  • Open driveshaft to the rear differential, a key First Series upgrade over the enclosed torque tube of 1954 and earlier models
  • New gas tank, fuel lines, and sending unit

Exterior

  • Body-off restoration
  • Freshly painted for a crisp, eye-catching presentation
  • Classic rounded Advance-Design body style, a favorite among vintage truck collectors
  • New chrome bumpers, grille, taillights, and sideview mirrors
  • New glass throughout, with the original tempered corner cab windows retained
  • All new rubber moldings and window sweeps
  • Custom White Oak lumber bed with stainless fastenings, a beautiful and durable finishing touch
  • Painted splash apron included for owners who prefer a more subdued look with less chrome up front

Interior

  • New seat upholstery
  • New headliner with visors
  • New rubber floor mat
  • Clean, uncluttered cabin with heater delete and radio delete, true to the truck’s simple working roots

Suspension & Chassis

  • Body-off restoration gives access to a thoroughly refreshed foundation
  • Open driveshaft design for a more modern, serviceable drivetrain layout
  • New wiring harness for dependable electrical performance
  • Mechanical parking brake assembly is present, needing only the final connecting cables to the rear assembly

Additional Info

  • Rare First Series production, built for only a brief window from late 1954 through March 25, 1955, while Chevrolet retooled for the Second Series
  • Original First Series trucks are prized by collectors for their short production run and transitional design
  • Retains the rounded post-war Advance-Design styling rather than the wraparound windshield of the Second Series
  • Painted splash apron included as an alternative to the chrome front presentation
