Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 1959 Description
I have for you the cleanest 2 door 1959 Bel Air that I have ever personally seen. This car has been stored inside since the late 70's and was fully restored a few years ago. The car was daily driven by an 84 year old man up to about a year ago when his health prevented him from being able to get in and out of it. As many of you know the X frame cars from the 50's & 60's were notorious for rusting pretty much off the assembly line and restoration parts are few and far between. That is what makes this car a unicorn of sorts as it is in very good to excellent driver condition. So whats been done preserve and upgrade this beautiful time capsule....Yes I realize there is a 60 hubcap on the front passenger side I have ordered a set of MEGA clean 59 Caps with spinners that will be included in the sale and be on the car by the end of the week

The list goes on and on
As you can see there has been 10's of thousands spent on this car. You can truly get in this car and drive it anywhere (No need for a trailer). Fly out and drive it home. If you are looking at this you know that these cars have become one of the hottest in the custom car world. We purchased this car with intent to bag it with some big wheels and brakes, but it has to classic of a look and is to solid to mess up (though we will at your expense) but this car needs to be preserved in all its original glory like it has for the last 58 years.
Anyone interested in this car is encuraged to come see it in person there are ZERO bubbles in the body its is smooth, straight and solid. I do have a lift available for you to look underneath and I guarantee you will not find a better original example for any less $$$$$ if you do BUY IT! I do not need to sell this car so BS offers will be ignored you know what you're looking at and so do I.
All sales are final and deposits are NON refundable. If you are not sure come look you will not be sorry.
You just dont find them like this anymore
