Vehicle Description
Welcome to StreetDreamsTexas as we celebrate our 22nd year in the
classic and muscle car business. Anyone who is interested in owning
a Tri-Five (1955-1957) Chevrolet should have no problem finding one
because there are still thousands of these classics on the road
today. You could search the world over, however, and never find an
example as nice as this 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-Door Hardtop
(1037D). Starting with a straight, rust-free example, Hatfield
Restorations of Canton, TX applied the beautiful and correct Coral
and Shadow Grey (627) paint. Inside, the correct Grey Straw Pattern
Cloth and Coral Vinyl (532) upholstery compliment the exterior
colors perfectly. A Vintage Air A/C system will keep you
comfortable as you listen to the original Wonderbar radio. The
stellar Art Morrison chassis features a Sport IFS with a 1 1/8 sway
bar and power rack and pinion steering up front and a triangulated
4-bar suspension out back. Motivation for this masterpiece is
supplied by a GM crate Ramjet 350 sporting a Vintage Air Front
Runner system, beautiful headers, power steering, and a Performance
Rod & Custom aluminum crossflow radiator with dual 13 electric
fans. Horsepower is routed through a Phoenix 700R4 AOD transmission
with a 20 external cooler, then back to a Ford 9 rear end with 3.50
gears. When the light turns red, a Wilwood 4-wheel disc brake
system with 11 rotors provides superior stopping power. Finally, a
set of Michelin Diamondback Classics (205/75R15) with extra-wide
whitewalls wrapped around 15x5 steel wheels give her the perfect
stance. This car was so nice BEFORE the restoration that the
restorer tried to talk the customer out of the project! Yet another
top-shelf gem from The Texas Hill Country's premier source for
classics and muscle cars. Street Dreams (830-997-1950) is a full
service dealership that can assist with worldwide delivery,
insurance, and financing options.
