Vehicle Description
STK 2937 1955 Chevrolet Resto Mod
In order to transform a Tri-Five Chevy into a top-flight Resto Mod,
you must have a clear vision and oversee every aspect of the
process to reach the goal. From the beautiful paint to the stunning
interior to the powerful drivetrain, this '55 BelAir is a perfect
example of a vision brought to life. A complete restoration was
completed in 2016 and the attention to detail on this ONE FAMILY
owned North Carolina car is unbelievable. (It must be noted that
the owner who built this car restored classics for a living.) The
application of 'OW Red' paint is virtually flawless, as is all
chrome and stainless body trim. Doors, hood and trunk are shaved.
This BelAir sits lower than factory on upgraded suspension and 17"
5-spoke chrome alloys that mount Michelins up front and meaty
GrandPrix Tour R/S radials on the rear. The interior can only be
described as outstanding - beyond show quality. The plush ostrich
leather is stunning with four-bucket seats, a full console and
flawless carpeting. The 'trademark' BelAir wheel has been replaced
with a custom alloy/wood grain unit and a set of Classic Instrument
gauges are mounted in the factory dash pod. Enjoy the ride with
A/C, power tinted windows, tilt wheel, power seats and an
incredible AM/FM/CD stereo system. The impressive custom engine
compartment is home to a 350ci small block that was totally rebuilt
in 2016. It is fitted with an aluminum manifold, Edelbrock carb and
mild street cam. Exhaust is routed to a custom stainless system
with crossover pipe and dual cutouts. An aluminum radiator
furnishes cooling and the battery has been moved to the trunk. The
transmission is believed to be a 4L60E 4-speed automatic - second
gen 700R4. This BelAir looks beautiful from any angle - even below.
The chassis has been totally detailed and remains virtually
spotless. It incorporates rack-and-pinion power steering and power
disc/drum brakes w/dual master and stainless lines. Suspension
components have been upgraded including tubular A-arms and
heavy-duty front sway bar. The differential is carried on leaf
springs and contains 3.23:1 gearing. This is an extraordinary '55
BelAir that words cannot really describe - it must be seen to be
appreciated. Any one of us would be proud to have this Tri-Five in
the driveway. ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS".
