For Sale: 1955 Chevrolet 210 in Island Lake, Illinois

If you were to head out to just about any car show, you'd likely find at least a few Bel Airs. One of Detroit's most adored creations, late '50s Chevys continue to be restoration magnets for builders and collectors alike. The only problem is: once you've joined the ranks of tri-five ownership, it becomes increasingly difficult to stand out. Well, with a classic like this handsome '55 Chevy 210, standing out is guaranteed to be a non-issue. Benefitting from a full restoration, this sedan's time-tested looks are backed by an impressive list of hardware that includes 496 cubic inches of Chevrolet big block, a tough Borg Warner T-56 Six Speed trans, mini-tub, disc brakes, and a roll cage with harnesses for peace of mind when you're really wanting to push the limits. Virtually timeless and universally loved, tri-fives are always crowd favorites. And with twice the swagger of its restored-to-stock brethren, this custom bowtie is one of the most enjoyable classics on the planet!
