1955 Chevrolet 3100 Cameo (2nd Series) No reserve Manufacturer: 1955 Chevrolet 3100 Cameo (2nd Series) Model: No reserve Registration document: French registration document Chassis No.: Chassis No. H255L011395 - 265ci V8! - Restored from the chassis up - Top-of-the-range Chevrolet pick-up - No reserve 1955 was a year of renewal for Chevrolet, both technically and aesthetically, and commercial vehicles were no exception. Thus, the Cameo Series 3100, which topped the pick-up range, broke new ground with a modern design featuring a panoramic windscreen, a rear load bed with fibreglass panels, and the all-new 265 ci (4.3L) small-block V8 engine. Powerful and elegant, it was available in a single ‘Bombay Ivory’ colour with a red interior, a colour scheme echoed in the bed’s interior panelling. The example on display, built at the Los Angeles plant, has undergone extensive restoration in the USA, starting from the chassis, and this has been documented in a photo dossier. The bodywork was separated from the chassis to allow for the restoration of the latter. The cab has been stripped, treated and repainted in its original colour, as has the rear compartment. The engine has been overhauled and refitted, along with the automatic gearbox, in a compartment in immaculate condition. The upholstery and electrical system have been given the same attention to detail, and the chrome fittings have been restored. Having covered very few miles since its restoration, this flamboyant and luxurious pick-up was imported into Europe in 2018 whilst it was registered in Nevada. The appeal of this model and the quality of its restoration will captivate all gentleman farmers!

In fact, at the top of the pick-up range, the Cameo Series 3100 broke new ground with a modern design featuring a panoramic windscreen, a load bed with fibreglass panels and a brand-new 265 ci (4.3-litre) small-block V8 engine. Powerful and elegant, it was available in the unique ‘Bombay Ivory’ colour scheme with a red interior, matching the inner panels of the load bed.

The engine was rebuilt and refitted, along with the automatic gearbox, into a compartment in immaculate condition. The upholstery and electrical system were given the same careful attention, and the chrome parts were restored. Having been driven sparingly since its restoration, this flamboyant and luxurious pick-up was imported into Europe in 2018, when it was registered in Nevada. The appeal of this model and the quality of its restoration will appeal to all gentleman farmers!
