dual-quad 409 with 409 HP, paired with a Borg-Warner T-10 4-speed
trans, and matched with a 4.56 Posi-Traction rear end - all in the
highly-desirable two-door "bubble-top" couple body. This particular
example has undergone a complete and highly meticulous frame-off
restoration, the engine was lovingly rebuilt with high quality
parts such as Venolia forged pistons, a Crane cam, and more. The
painstaking care and time put into this restoration shows, making
this car an investment you can show, drive with a smile, and own
with pride. Immaculate in, out, top to bottom, no disappointments

The 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-dr bubble top coupe is a classic car
that has captivated the hearts of automotive enthusiasts for
decades. The appeal of this vehicle lies in its unique design,
powerful engine, and historical significance in the American muscle
car scene. The 409 cubic inch V-8 engine was a legend in its time,
offering a range of power outputs from 380 hp and 420 lb-ft of
torque up to this car's rare 409 hp at 6,500 rpm and 420 lb-ft of
torque at 4,200 rpm. The 409/409 made the 1962 Bel Air a formidable
presence on both the street and the drag strip, with multiple
famous NHRA Super Stock racers launching their careers with this
car's same option spec. The 409 was a popular option for Chevrolet
until late 1965 when it was replaced by the 396-inch big-block,
making the 1962 model a significant piece of automotive
history.
The 2-dr "bubble top" design gets its name from the frameless door
windows and large, rounded rear window, which gave the car a sleek
and sporty appearance that was unique for its time. This design was
not only visually appealing but also contributed to the car's
aerodynamic performance. The 1962 Bel Air was part of the third
generation of Chevrolet's full-size car lineup.
