Gateway Classic Cars of Louisville is proud to present this
unbelievably custom 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air. The 55 Chevy Bel-Air is
arguably one of the best-looking cars ever built. There clean lines
and finless design make them great candidates for full on custom
builds. Art Morrison started out building frames for tubbed out
drag cars in the 70's and 80's but the company really took off when
he began building his line of pro-touring chassis'. This 55 is
sitting on one of his custom-built frames which not only looks good
but increases the handling of the car dramatically. Finished off in
the same Erica red paint as the body making the transition from
floor pan to frame almost seamless. With touches of chrome here and
there to break it up you can tell this was a well thought out
build. The stance of the car was also dramatically changed due to
the chassis as well with it sitting much lower than a stock 55. The
wheels will be the next thing you notice with the set consisting of
18's in the front and 20's in the back giving the car that
aggressive look. Behind those wheels are a set of chrome plated
calipers that blend nicely while the cross-drilled and slotted
rotors show people you mean business. Under that silky-smooth hood
is was most consider the Mecca of LS powerplants. This LS7 has been
built with a mild cam giving it a nice lope at idle but the real
work is in the details. The intake has been painted to match with
the custom firewall being cleaned up which flows into the custom
inner fender wells. A custom piece of metal was formed to cover up
the radiator as well making this engine bay look seamless like the
rest of the car. Putting power to the road is a built 4l60
transmission giving you the capability to drive this beauty down
the freeway comfortably at highway speeds. Inside the custom
touches are extensive with the dash being made from one piece of
metal as well. The gauges and AC vents are molded into that custom
dash as well keeping with that flowing design. The leather wrapped
seats are extremely comfortable while the Lokar shifter sits
perfectly in the custom-made console. With this car being a fresh
build and never shown to the public this beauty is guaranteed to
collect a whole room of trophies or do what this car was intended
to do Drive It! Options on this 1955 Custom Chevrolet Bel Air
