If you look up 1950s America in the dictionary, chances are a photo
of a Bel Air will be next to the definition. Despite a long
production run from 1951 to 1981, the most famous Bel Airs are the
1955 to 1957 models. The styling was unique and all new, with even
a Ferrari inspired grill. Powerful V8s and optional automatic
transmission meant the Bel Air was cutting edge as far as
mechanicals. It was a high water mark for Chevrolet and the cars
were even referred to as the "Hot One" in marketing literature.
The 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air offered here for sale was fully
restored, thousands of dollars were spent to create this impressive
machine. The restoration took place over several years starting in
2016 and completed in 2018, with the work being done by several
professional shops in Minnesota. The drivetrain consists of a
healthy 350 v8 with a custom cam, headers and dual exhaust with
electric cut outs is paired with a Muncie 4 speed manual
transmission. The bright red paint shows incredibly well, and when
the light catches it just right you can see the tastefully done
ghost flames in the front of the car. Other highlights include rear
air suspension, new front suspension, bucket seats, custom electric
front windows, air conditioning with stock vents, new gauges, front
power disc brakes, posi traction rear end, electronic ignition,
aluminum radiator, Holley 4 bbl carburetor, power steering, 15 inch
Cragar wheels with BF Goodrich tires. The car comes with a file of
various receipts pertaining to the build of the car.
