Chevrolet's Task Force trucks occupy a rare sweet spot in American automotive history. They're instantly recognizable, endlessly usable, and timeless without trying too hard. This 1955 Chevrolet 3100 Stepside takes that foundation and pushes it forward, blending classic proportions with modern drivability and a carefully curated street rod attitude. It's a truck built to be driven, enjoyed, and admired without apology.

The body was taken through a ground-up restoration and finished in deep, jet-black two-stage paint that gives the truck a formal, tuxedo-like presence. Panel fit is excellent throughout, with straight body lines and clean gaps that far exceed factory standards. Restored chrome adds crisp contrast, while details like the cab visor, LED lighting, and retractable Nomad-style tailgate cable tethers sharpen the truck's finished look. The stance is dialed in on 15" steel wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich Silvertown Radials with wide whitewalls, giving the truck undeniable curb appeal. Out back, the finished oak bed floor with polished stainless slats delivers classic style with durability to match.

Under the hood lives a 5.3L LS-based V8, chosen for its reliability, efficiency, and broad powerband. It's dressed with a fabricated intake manifold, 102mm throttle body, stainless steel headers, and a polished serpentine accessory drive, all set within a smoothed and body-color-matched engine bay. Cooling is handled by an aluminum radiator with an electric fan. Power feeds through a 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission, delivering effortless drivability. Beneath the truck, a complete S10-based chassis brings modern geometry to the driving experience. A Fatman Fabrications independent front suspension with tubular A-arms and an anti-sway bar works alongside power steering and four-wheel power disc brakes for predictable, comfortable control. In the rear, a Ford 9" axle with 3.55 gearing and Positraction is supported by leaf springs with lowering blocks, resulting in a planted and practical stance.

Inside, the transformation is just as thoughtful. The original utilitarian cabin has been replaced with a custom interior focused on comfort and function. Power bucket seats wrapped in custom upholstery are paired with matching door panels and a tailored headliner. Dakota Digital gauges deliver a retro look with modern reliability, while a custom-built center console adds ample storage, a floor-mounted shifter, and an Android-based touchscreen receiver with Bluetooth and back-up camera. Power windows, a polished tilt steering column, and a billet aluminum steering wheel complete a custom interior that feels intuitive and easy to live with.

This 1955 Chevrolet 3100 represents the kind of build that never goes out of style. The design stays true to Task Force proportions, while the mechanical upgrades quietly transform how the truck drives and lives on modern roads. It's equal parts presence and practicality, built to be driven, shown, and appreciated.
