Vehicle Description
Beautiful two tone, Gypsy Red and Shoreline Beige 1955 Chevrolet
Bel Air convertible with Light Ivory, Red interior and a Beige soft
top. This stunning Bel Air convertible was a solid southern car; it
was repainted in its very desirable original two tone
colors. This has been trimmed with a good mix of new
chrome and stainless. It has a well preserved original trim with
lots of extras like the rear chrome continental kit, complete
chrome front bumper with guards, rear painted skirts, stainless
fingernail guards and a stainless fuel door guard. The paint has a
bright shine and covers a rock solid southern body with good gaps
and lines. This Bel Air convertible came from a large private
collection in Miami, where it lived a pampered life in a climate
controlled environment, was driven sparingly, and enjoyed with
great care. The engine bay is highly detailed and showcases the
code correct 265/205 4 bbl. engine with Powerglide automatic
transmission. Upgrades were made to make the driving experience
more enjoyable like power rack and pinion steering and aluminum
radiator for increased cooling. The Red and Light Ivory was all new
at the time of the restoration and looks amazing. The dash, gauges
and original steering wheel all have the iconic look and feel that
made this tri-five one of the most popular cars of all time. The
trunk is correctly painted and complete with mat and jack. This
American Dream Machine is rolling on new wide whites and Bel Air
chrome hubcaps for timeless good looks.EXTERIOR: Correct code 615S
