55 Chevrolet 2dr Bel Air Sedan
55 Chevrolet 2dr Bel Air Sedan
Finished in Candy Apple Red with a gloss that can almost be seen two towns over, there's no mistaking this 1955 Chevy for anything else. The design was game-changing when it was new, and even today it remains a benchmark for all car guys and gals. Sooner or later, all of us want to own a Tri-Five Chevy, don't we? The classic lines and somewhat restrained use of chrome and brightwork make it difficult to improve on the original, so the builder of this 2-door sedan wisely chose to simply restore the exterior to his specs and to an extremely high driver-quality standard not long ago. Paint and bodywork are really great, with a sharp finish that's showing only very minor imperfections, but nothing major that needs any attention in our opinion. Nope, this '55 looks just right. Gaps are even all around, and the entire car fits together in a way that modern cars just can't seem to duplicate. This 55 proudly wears all its trim like jewelry. This Tri-5 is ready to be shown-off and envied all around town.
Perfectly complimenting the Candy Apple Red exterior is a wonderfully comfortable White interior, a subdued combination that would look right at home in a much more expensive vehicle. The original-style bench has been stitched in upgraded patterns, with vertical interior pleats that mirror the feel the exterior color combination. Stylish door panels were tailored to match. White wrapped steering wheel looks great. The original dash is intact, with a dash mounted tach and gauges under dash to monitor the engine temp, Oil pressure and voltage.. Entertainment comes from an AM/FM/Cassette stereo radio. The headliner above was neatly finished, and the backseat likely hasn't hauled anything outside of a cruise-in trophy and the occasional grandchild out on a Sunday afternoon trip with the family. Out back, the cavernous trunk is clean, and has plenty of room ( Car Cover Included)
Power comes from a great-running 350 cubic inch V8 rebuilt motor with dual quads! 4-speed Muncie Manual transmission. And while there's nothing more traditional than a small block Chevy in a 1955 Bel Air, the many upgrades under the hood make this car safer and more reliable than any stock '55 ever was. Tubular A-arms up front, and power steering and power disc brakes - making this a car that can be driven daily without worries and taken on cross-country trips at the drop of a hat. In the clean engine bay and underneath the car it's clean and tidy, but not so insanely clean that you're afraid to drive it, and you'll never get tired of the shorty headers and rumbling dual exhaust singing their song Also has cut outs with removable plates. That upgraded suspension adjusts the attitude of the stance and it rolls on classic set of Cragers.
No, it's not radical race car but she's runs enough to scare any passenger, but there's no question this 1955 Bel Air is timeless. Put it in your garage and I guarantee you'll never run out of reasons to take it for a spin. Call today!
