This Chevrolet pickup street rod is comprised of a modified 1936 steel body that has been chopped, lengthened, and repainted in black, orange, and silver, and it is mounted to a reinforced frame with a TCI independent front and four-link rear suspension. Power is provided by a 454ci V8 linked with a five-speed manual transmission, a 12-bolt rear axle, and an Eaton differential, and performance equipment includes a Holley carburetor, long-tube headers, and 502-specification cylinder heads. The pickup bed was shortened and fitted with a custom fuel tank, a hidden battery box, a louvered fixed tailgate, and widened wheelhouses that accommodate the 15″ American Racing wheels and 29″ Hoosier Pro Street rubber. The truck rides on adjustable QA1 coilovers, tubular control arms, and power rack-and-pinion steering, and braking is handled by power-assisted front discs and 11″ rear drums. Inside, the bomber-style seats are trimmed in black and orange leather and are joined by a matching headliner, square-weave carpeting, a tilting drilled steering wheel, and a Chevrolet heater. Acquired by the seller in 2024, this Chevy pickup street rod is now offered in Nevada with a Montana title in the seller’s name.

Custom bodywork included lengthening the cab 6″, chopping the top, increasing the pitch of the A-pillars, moving the cowl back 4″, and adjusting the window height. The seller tells us the truck utilizes the factory frame, which has been modified with tubular braces and supports along with revised geometry to accommodate the suspension and driveline. Further details are captured in the seller-provided build sheet in the gallery.

The steel body panels are finished in black with orange and silver accents, and the engine side covers have been removed. Styling elements include a pop-out windshield, flared diamond-pattern running boards, coach doors, extended stake pockets, LED lighting, tinted glass, remote-controlled door poppers and side windows, a removable roof panel, and a custom radiator cap molded into the grille surround.

The bed has been shortened 18″ and is fitted with a custom floor, a hinged hidden battery box, a fabricated fuel tank, a louvered fixed tailgate, and modified wheelhouses.

The truck rides on a TCI independent front suspension with tubular control arms, custom power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering, and adjustable QA1 coilovers, while the TCI four-link rear setup is comprised of a sway bar, a torsion bar, and matching adjustable coilovers.

American Racing 15″ wheels have gray centers, faux three-earned knockoffs, and polished lips, and they are mounted with Hoosier Pro Street radials measuring 25×7.5″ up front and 29×18.5″ out back. The front disc brake setup includes Wilwood calipers and braided hoses, and the hydraulic brake equipment is mounted under the dashboard.

Bomber-style fixed-back seats are trimmed in black leather with orange accents and silver piping, and matching upholstery extends to the headliner and doors. Sound-deadening material was applied beneath the square-weave carpeted mats, and the seller notes a modified 1941 Chevrolet dashboard was installed during the build. Details include electric windows, an American Autowire harness, and a 12-volt heater.

The drilled steering wheel sits on a tilting Flaming River column ahead of a Classic Instruments 140-mph speedometer and combination gauge. Driver controls are comprised of a cueball-style shift knob, a custom emergency brake assembly, and drilled pedals. The five-digit odometer shows 5,500 miles, approximately 500 of which were added under current ownership. Total mileage is unknown.

The 454ci V8 is fitted with a Holley Street Avenger four-barrel carburetor, an aluminum intake manifold, 502-specification cylinder heads, and electronic ignition. Cooling is handled by an aluminum radiator with an electric fan. Long-tube headers flow to a 3″ stainless-steel exhaust system with bullet-style mufflers and turn-downs ahead of the rear axle.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual transmission, and the narrowed 12-bolt rear axle is equipped with Moser 33-spline axles, 3.31:1 gears, and an Eaton limited-slip differential, per the seller. The frame and rear end were painted with black enamel during the build.

The VIN on the Idaho assigned identification plate matches the VIN on the current Montana title, and the title carries a “Street Rod” brand.
