I think I've found a pretty good deal on a 1955 Chevy 3100 (2nd series) , and have been looking online to try and find information related to the options available for this particular year. Do y'all have any links that you'd mind sharing that list all the RPO codes and options available for this model year?

Oh yeah, this is my first post on this BBS. From what I've seen so far, y'all seem to be very knowledgeable and helpful. Thanks for the help, everyone!!!

welcome to the garage Paul - the info your after would hafta be pieced together, and one of the best sources would be the 55-59 assembly manual, which is available in repro from most of the suppliers [find your fav on the bolts links page] - there's also good info in the accessories manual [the truck parts I\'ve put up in html format here - check the index for the RPO#s]

we like pictures around here grin so we'll be waitin for some shots of yer good deal!

Welcome to the Stovebolt Pages. There's lots of info here just not all in one chart for your perusal. When you have a question type a key word into the search page.

For one whale of a package of info you'll have to order your restoration package from Chevrolet.

Good luck with your project and show us a picture.

Thanks for the help so far. It's not my project yet, I'm going to look at the truck this weekend.

Whether or not I buy it depends on the advice I hope to get in the 'Engine and Driveline' forum:
Freeze Plug

With the motor not running, I don't know if I feel comfortable buying the truck. But, then again, if the deal is right.... wink

Tall Paul,

These old Chevys are a whole lot like little puppies. They are soooooooo loveable and cute that you fall in love with 'em. Then you have all kinds of trouble gettin' 'em home where they suddenly poop all over everything and require all kinds of money for maintaining, repairs, a home to keep 'em warm, etc. etc.

But a truck, like a puppy, grows and returns your attention and training in the ways you want it to go.

Buy the Truck! You'll feel a whole lot better the first time you drive it.
