It's hard to find a more all-American cruiser than a red and white
1955 Chevrolet Bel Air hardtop. And it will be hard to find a more
cruiser-ready car than this one. It's a well-done restomod with
subtilty integrated additions like fuel injection, an overdrive
transmission, air conditioning and Bluetooth. In fact, there were
big investments all around this car, and all were done within about
the last five years. It was all about creating the most authentic
look possible and hiding all the best cruiser-ready features. So
take some time looking over the full package because some of the
best upgrades are so well integrated that you may miss them with
just a casual glance.

There is an instant attraction to this car. It's a first-year
Tri-Five Chevy in a stunningly coordinated red and white package.
So the only way it gets any more patriotic is if you're standing
next to it wearing your bluest Levi's and holding an apple pie. But
what we really love is how everything works in harmony to be a real
driver. For example, people are more likely to notice how the red
wheels and wide whitewall tires nicely coordinate with the exterior
paint. They are less likely to see that behind this classic setup
is a modern tread for modern touring. It's also hard to see the
fuel injection, disc brakes upgrade, overdrive transmission,
Bluetooth radio, upgraded steering wheel on a tilt column, or
overdrive transmission. You can tell this Chevy wants to put the
quality classic feeling out there in front, and it saves the
excellent driver upgrades for you to understand only when you're
behind the wheel (or bragging about them.) That makes for an
upper-tier restomod, and those are always in demand. So don't miss
out, call today!
