Vehicle Description
When you want a great all-around classic, start with an iconic
design in a shiny package, add in a custom A/C interior, and don't
forget plenty of V8 power. That's why this 1955 Chevrolet 210 is
the perfect classic... and it's turn-key ready for you today.
Cherry red and white two-tone fits perfectly with the 1950s-style
of this coupe. Of course, you could never get this kind of luster
and shine in '55, and so what is grabbing your attention now is a
full professional respray that takes advantage of vivid modern
clearcoats. More than just looking glossy and nice, you can tell
this is a quality coupe by the straightness of the sheetmetal and
the level of panel fit. In fact, all you have to do is look at the
lines on the side trim to know this one is a true standout. And
speaking of brightwork, this is key on these ionic first-year
Tri-Five Chevys. So you'll love that it's complete and shining on
everything from the bumpers to the jet-inspired hood ornament. It's
a package that gives you that feeling of great '50s machine, but
those large 18-inch Ridler wheels also hint that this icon has been
upgraded.
The red theme of the exterior is continued inside, and now it's
joined by a tasteful deep gray. The way the two tone is interwoven,
especially on the seat piping and headliner, really lets you know
there was a lot of thought and investment in this build to give it
a uniform presentation. There was also special attention paid to
giving the dash a great gloss and shine, because after all, the
dual cowl design is reminiscent of the Corvette. A beautifully
restored classic like this is meant to be shared with family and
friends. So not only is there plenty of room to carry people, but
also they're going to be very comfortable. That's thanks to
upgrades like the AM/FM/CD stereo, cup holder center console, and
modern R134a air conditioning to keep them cool. But you might have
also spotted the tall Hurst shifter and trio of auxiliary gauges,
there're a nice hint that there's something special under the hood
just for you.
Part of what makes this Chevy a legend is that 1955 was the
introduction for the small block V8. That must be why there has
been so much invested in giving the engine bay a show-worthy shine.
During the iconic Tri-Five era, the largest displacement available
from the factory was 283 cubic-inches. So we love seeing this kind
of original spirit in the engine bay. And we also appreciate the
solid investment in added performance with a Holley four-barrel
carburetor, Jegs intake, and headers that feed the performance
X-pipe dual exhaust. And more than just a great power package,
you'll like how this one handles thanks to upgrades like front disc
brakes, power steering, and the grip of modern performance tires.
Plus, this Chevy is also a thoughtful cruiser for modern times.
That's why you have features like a three-speed automatic
transmission and an aluminum radiator to keep this classic running
cool even when you're in traffic with the A/C pumping.
A complete, beautiful, and thoughtful build of an American icon.
This is a shining example of what we all love in vintage cars, and
