The Chevrolet Bel Air and 210 models are probably the most
recognizable, lovable, and customized classic pieces of Americona
of all time. This restored and customized icon is all about power
and beauty at the highest standards.

Built by Fred's Custom Wiring of Ontario, California
The recipient of a gracious restoration by Fred's Custom Wiring of
Ontario, California, this icon's panels are coated with a custom
blend of silver and green metallic that intrigues your senses.
Sprayed as a two-tone, it's better than factory finish glissens
over the perfectly aligned and fitted panels. The door handles are
of contemporary styling thanks to Corvette designers, and the hood
ornament removed to give it an overall smoother look. The side
mirrors provide a resto-look but also add safety features with
built in amber colored turning signals. Budnik wheels finish the
look on all four corners.
Under the hood is where you'll likely need sunglasses for looking
at all that beautifully polished chrome, aluminum, and paint.
Nestled inside the custom engine bay you'll find a General Motors
Performance Parts Ram Jet ZL1 454 that pushes over 510 horses into
493 lb./ft. of impressive torque. The firewall was customized to
accommodate the ZL1. The wheel wells are customized as well, which
shields the engine bay area nicely. Check out the radiator. The
craftsmanship that went into building the shroud around it is
amazing.
Under the car is just as impressive. The frame and floor panels are
painted exactly as the body. A rugged and trusty 4L80E transmission
spins those gears inside the chromed pumpkin to the awaiting carbon
fiber axles as the LZ1 pushes exhaust out the large custom diameter
exhaust pipes.
Opening the doors reveals a simple yet stylish interior filled with
leather that matches the exterior. Centered in the dash above the
center console is where the Auto Meter Ultra Lite gauges protrude
through canister like tubes. The area surrounding the tubes is
illuminated emerald green. Sitting in the custom upholstered and
stitched recaro seats is a pleasurable experience. Glancing up at
the headliner reveals more custom craftsmanship in the design. It
is anything but typical. The same treatment is found across the
dash and door panels. Alpine and Panasonic provide the
entertainment; however, the thrill comes with driving it.
One last detail we just can't get enough of may surprise you: The
gas filler. Sure it's always been kind of cool to get to, but this
one is electric, just like a garage door opener. Push a button and
the tail light flips upward revealing the gas cap. The invoice
build sheet reads 299 hours spent on perfecting this detail!
At the Motor Car Group, we're enthusiasts first. We want you to
enjoy your new car from the minute it's delivered and the trailer
door drops. Before a car leaves our shop, it's gone through
comprehensively, both visually and mechanically. We do more than
just kick the tires, though: We road test (if the weather permits
us here in Cleveland!) and clean it inside and out.
We're proud of our inventory and do our best in describing each
example as accurately as possible. As with all classic cars, it can
be difficult to know the true miles and history. Further, what one
person sees is a gem, another person might not. So before making an
investment, we encourage you to hire the services of a private
inspector for a third party opinion. After all, we want you to be
happy with your car for years to come!
No matter where you'd like your car shipped to, let us make the
arrangements. We've ship cars all over the world. Delivering your
new ride in enclosed carrier is nothing new for us. We'd be honored
to arrange all the logistics for you! Every car we sell, from
Sunday drivers through the rarest exotics, is meant to be
driven-get out there!
If you have any questions before, during or after the sale, do not
hesitate to contact us. It's what we're here for! Call us at (440)
914-0000, write us at
[email protected] or stop by and see
the new shop at 6441 Davis Industrial Parkway, Solon OH 44139.
We're 26 miles from Cleveland Hopkins Airport and we can pick you
up when you come to inspect or purchase your car.
We welcome any prospective buyers, their buyer's agents or
inspectors from Monday through Friday during business hours, as
well as evenings and weekends by appointment. We're car people who
love what we do, and you'll feel it from the first time you contact
us. Give the R&H crew the opportunity to serve you: Our passion
and attention to detail set us apart!
