Up for sale is a rare anddesirable 1955 Cameo Pickup. Only a little over 5000 were produced that year and barely 10,000 total were built when production ended in early 1958. This was the firstfleet side pickup made and GM pulled out all the stops when they penned this production custom.This particular Cameo has had some tasteful modifications while still maintaining its Cameo heritage.
The engine was upgraded to a 1988 350 injected Corvette SBC. Numbers on the front pad indicate VO 830 ZMD Flint-08/30/1988 L98-8 Corvette
Transmission is an automatic Lokker shift
