The 1955 Chevrolet 3100 marked a significant departure from previous Chevy trucks. Introduced in mid-1955, it belonged to the Task Force Series, the first major redesign for Chevrolet trucks after World War II . This new design philosophy aimed to blur the lines between work trucks and personal vehicles.

The 1955 Chevrolet 3100 broke away from the utilitarian boxiness of past pickups. It sported a wraparound windshield, a first for Chevy trucks, and a stylish egg-crate grille that resembled those found on contemporary Chevrolet cars . This car-inspired design offered a more comfortable and roomier cabin than previous Chevy trucks.
While the standard engine for the 3100 was a reliable 123-horsepower, 235-cubic-inch inline-six, a more powerful option was available for those seeking extra muscle. For the first time in a Chevy truck, a 145-horsepower, 265-cubic-inch V8 engine could be had .

The 3100 series wasn't limited to just standard pickups. It also offered the Suburban Carryall, a two-door station wagon with either side-hinged panel doors or a two-piece tailgate, capable of seating up to eight people with an optional rear seat.

Another interesting offering was the 1955 Cameo Carrier, a revolutionary looking pickup with a fiberglass-lined cargo box, further emphasizing the car-like design elements . This stylish truck was only available in Bombay Ivory with red cab accents during its first year.

The 1955 Chevrolet 3100 marked a turning point for Chevrolet trucks. Its car-influenced design, combined with its powerful engine options, made it a popular choice for those who wanted a truck that could handle both work and leisure activities. These classic trucks continue to be admired for their unique style and functionality.
