Offering the top trim level in Chevrolet’s lineup in 1956, the Bel Air was as classy a car you could get from Chevrolet. For the buyers who wanted the classiest of the classy, the convertible was the only way to go – but to really put it over the top, nothing can compete with triple black. From the factory, this Bel Air convertible was painted Onyx Black, with a black convertible top and very fitting tuxedo-style black and white interior. To further enhance the elegance the car, it was fitted with wire wheel covers and a Continental spare tire kit on the rear. Under the hood is a correct 265ci V8 with a Powerglide automatic transmission. The driver and passengers ride in comfort with options like AM radio, tissue dispenser, dual outside mirrors, power steering and brakes, and a power convertible top. The car has undergone a full restoration to bring it to like-new condition, with great attention paid to detail.
True factory triple-black cars of any make are some of the rarest and most desirable cars in the collector world; combined with this being one of the most iconic models from the golden age of automotive styling makes this a rare and special car indeed.
