Vehicle Description
A real-deal 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air two-door with plenty of V8 power
is already pretty darn exciting. So when it looks ready for the
streets and the price is so obtainable, you know it's a deal that's
quite nice.
When you close your eyes and picture a cool-cruising Bel Air, this
is exactly what comes to mind. The red and white is so iconic, that
you almost feel like drinking a Coke just looking at this one. And
more than just the ideal two-tone, we love the '55 for being a
style master. The two colors are expertly divided by plenty of
bright trim that provides a well-defined boarder (that's why it's
so important to find a car as complete as this one.) The '55 Chevy
launched the legendary Tri-Five era with the wide grille,
form-fitting bumper, and curvaceous hood with a jet plane ornament
taking off from the center. And in the rear, there's just the right
amount of tailfin. They even just added a new bumper to make sure
this chrome king really shines. But we also love the subtler
touches. The steel wheels look great in a color-matched white, and
you can instantly tell that the rear ones are wider because this is
a true street machine.
Inside this one is set up to be more comfortable with the vinyl
interior that was changed over to a plush cloth later in life. But
this still retains the features you love, like plenty of brightwork
and the dual cowl dash that reminds us of the Corvette. And the
trunk even has a charming factory-style presentation. There's an
upgraded AM/FM/cassette stereo to keep passengers happy, but really
the best treats are reserved for you. A grippy sports steering
wheel, auxiliary gauges, and the B&M floor shifter are instant
indicators of something nice under the hood.
The '55 Chevy is coveted for launching the small block era, but it
never received something like this from the factory. Not only is
the 350 cubic-inch motor larger than stock, but also it has been
enhanced with go-fast goodies like an Edelbrock four-barrel
carburetor, Weiand intake, and long tube headers that feed the
rumbling dual exhaust. Plus, the TH350 three-speed automatic
transmission is a fine choice, because it's easy enough for
cruising and stout enough to get the power to the ground.
Complete with owner's manual, this is a true icon represented
correctly and offered at an unbeatable price. This is the kind of
deal where if you think twice it might already be gone. So don't
miss out, call today!
