For Sale: 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air in Lithia Springs, Georgia

With enhanced V8 power, an overdrive transmission, and an upgraded driving experience, this 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air was made to be the kind of two-tone classic that was made to be enjoyed by those who appreciate the open road.

The red and white is a color theme that's as all-American as a Coca-Cola bottle, and so we love to see it on one of the most iconic symbols of the American open road. The '55 Chevy really had style with the form-fitting chrome bumper, wide grille, a hint of fender overhang in the headlights, and a curvaceous hood with a fighter jet ornament taking off from the center. Along the sides, the full trim package provides a distinct dividing line for this two-tone. In the rear, there's a well-integrated chrome bumper and just the right amount of tailfin. And while this one has a sharp-looking vintage style, the modern 17-inch Coys alloys hint at the car's upgraded cruiser package.

The interior is a tasteful setup with an attractive black and plenty of red details to coordinate with the exterior. The two wide rows of bench seats have a classic look, but now they have the advantage of comfy velour inserts for where you sit. The view from the driver's seat is nicely detailed with the vintage pieces you love, like the smooth double-hump dash and plenty of bright trim. But this was also made to give you an upgraded cruiser feeling. That's why you have been upgraded with a grippy Chevy sports steering wheel, classic/cool SW gauges in the dash, an auxiliary readout trio, and a B&M floor shifter.

Since this is the car that launched the small block V8 era, it's great to have one looking ready for display. That means smooth inner walls and an overall tidy presentation. But more than just look good, this one wants to live up to its enhanced cruiser image. So you have a 350 cubic-inch V8, which is larger than what you could get in '55. Plus, it's upgraded with a full Edelbrock suite. This includes the four-barrel carburetor, performance intake, ribbed valve covers, and matching air grabber. There are also good supporting components, like upgraded pulleys, an HEI distributor, an electric fan, and an aluminum radiator with a built-in trans cooler. The motor fires up readily like a car that wants to hit the road. And that's easy to do thanks to a 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly overdrive. There's also power steering, power brakes, front discs, and the grip of modern sport tires afforded by the wheel upgrade.

This is a two-tone, first-year Tri-Five done with the features you want. So don't let this upgraded icon slip away, call today!
