Bel Air

Description

A gleaming chrome testament to a bygone era in American history, the 1955 Chevrolet Bel-Air is one of the most iconic cars ever built. Often considered the quintessential 1950s automobile, the Bel-Air continues to have a reputation for stylish design, bright colors, and reliable performance, making it an iconic symbol of American automotive culture. This 1955 Bel-Air was previously owned and loved by the same owner for over 30 years, being frame-off restored in 1993. Ten years later, the drivetrain was professionally rebuilt and has been driven only 8,000 miles since! Popping open the hood reveals a built 400 C.I. Chevrolet small-block V8 breathing through a Holley 650 4-barrel carburetor, an extremely potent powerplant with dyno sheets showing an output of 445 to 504 horsepower. Torque is put to the pavement through a 3-speed automatic transmission, which shifts smoothly and seamlessly as this Bel-Air glides down the road. The exterior of this stunning Bel-Air is the real show-stopper, with striking two-tone green & white paintjob that accentuates this Bel-Air's classic bodylines and curves. The louvered hood sitting over the engine adds a touch of custom flair, while the rock-solid body and painted undercarriage demonstrates the car's exceptional condition and attention to detail. Stepping inside the twin doors reveals a wonderfully-maintained "Naugahyde" white vinyl interior, which has a gorgeous contrast with the matching green painted dashboard. Other options on this head-turning '55 Chevy include aluminum heads, an aluminum radiator, digital gauges, a custom retro-style AM/FM radio, vent windows, 9" 4-wheel disc brakes, a B&M shifter, and a mean-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on a sleek set of 17" 5-spoke wheel wrapped with blackwall tires for a head-turning, custom look that blends the best of both muscular and 50's style! Rest assured, this '55 Chevy has tons of power and handles the road's curves amazingly. It's an exhilarating experience every time you're behind the wheel! Whether you're taking it to a car show or enjoying a weekend drive, this Bel-Air is sure to impress wherever it goes, so don't let it pass you by!
