Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 1955 Description
You've already glanced at the price tag and figured out that this isn't your average 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air. No, his one is professionally built, ncredibly detailed, nd beautifully finished and probably cost another 50% more than the asking price to build. If you want the kind of car that wins big trophies, ets on the pages of magazines, nd flat-out dominates local cruise nights, hey don't come much cooler than this.Most folks won't even get past the paint before they're speechless. The deep blue finish with intricate ghost flames looks simply spectacular, ith the flames almost moving around as you walk around the car in the sunlight. Of course, hat amazing paint is so impressive that you might miss the dozens of body mods that are under it, rom the smoothed quarter panels to the shaved emblems to the removed vent windows. Bodywork is beyond impressive, ith hardly a ripple or wave anywhere on the car and while it has been driven just over 1000 miles since it was completed, here are no signs of it anywhere. A cowl induction hood was added and that small change makes a big difference on the vintage '50s shape, dding an aggressive stance that it didn't have before. And the smooth grille, -piece bumpers, nd modified taillights all help with the super slick look. Heck, ven the gaps are tight enough to handle the Lexus ball bearing test.The interior is fully customized as well, tarting with comfortable buckets flanking a fabricated center console. The glove-soft leather and suede was wrapped around the power bucket seats, he rear bench, he door panels, nd even the console itself, ut it still has a distinct 1950s flair. Detailing is extremely impressive, ith little stuff like a courtesy light on the back of the console and the original E-brake handle reminding us that there were professionals at work here. The dashboard itself is fairly stock, ut the gauges are a custom insert designed to fit in the original housing and A/C vents have been artfully integrated into the design. There's also a massive entertainment system that includes a Sony AM/FM/CD/iPod head unit, icker amp, nd speakers stashed throughout the interior. Other goodies include a tilt column and power windows, aking this a no-compromises cruiser. They probably spent more finishing the trunk than many guys spend on their entire interiors, o be sure to show it off when you take this car to shows.The entire chassis was swapped for an Art Morrison GT Sport chassis, hich is anchored by a 350 cubic inch crate motor. Workmanship is outstanding and that Hilborn fuel injection system really makes a statement. There's a custom billet serpentine belt drive system, eautiful custom valve covers, moothed firewall and inner fenders, nd even the hoses for the radiator are custom polished stainless steel pieces. The chassis is fortified with Wilwood disc brakes at all four corners, tainless tubular A-arms, ower rack-and-pinion steering, oil-over shocks, nd a beautifully built dual exhaust system. The components are in like-new condition and the car runs and drives like a modern machine with superb handling and impressive ride quality. The lowered stance is just about perfect and those staggered Billet Specialties wheels carry 245/45/17 front and 275/40/18 rear Kumho performance radials.This car is impressive in every way imaginable. Years of work and tens of thousands of dollars produced what is easily one of the very best Tri-Fives we've ever represented. Call today!
