Re: Rare 55
That would be a 4 speed hydromatic. Probably the same as the 54 transmisison with an open drive tail shaft.
Rare on a 55 second series with a 235 because of the pretty big for the time added cost. In most places trucks hadn't hit the dad's work car status yet and most trucks were bought to work out of.

48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
