For Sale: 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air in Marietta, Georgia

Vehicle Description

1955 Chevrolet Bel Air - Frame-Off Custom by Southern Classic Customs | 502ci V8 | Tremec 6-Speed | Art Morrison Chassis
Offered for sale is a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air unlike any other-a show-stopping, full frame-off custom build completed by the renowned Southern Classic Customs (SCC). Finished in stunning Rosso Corsa Ferrari Red, this Bel Air is a meticulous 3-year labor of love that merges timeless 1950s design with modern craftsmanship and raw performance. Every component on this car is new, and no detail was overlooked.

Build Overview:
This Bel Air features a rust-free body from Real Deal Steel, and was completely transformed by SCC with a refined, minimalist approach. Staying true to the car's legendary design, SCC carefully shaved unnecessary trim from the rear quarters, dash, gas door, wiper cowl, and emblems for a smooth and clean silhouette. The bumpers were also shaved and tucked to enhance the sleek body lines. The Ferrari Rosso Corsa paint was laid down in premium PPG materials by SCC's very own Brandon Shuping and Howard Brown, and the result is an absolutely mirror-like finish over very straight panels. Riding on Boze Clutch wheels, which are 275/35/18 on the front and 325/35/19 on the rear.

Engine & Drivetrain:
- Power comes from a fresh GM Performance 502ci / 502hp Big Block Crate V8, fitted with:

- Borla Induction intake and throttle body

- FAST XFI Stand-Alone EFI system

Paired with this powerhouse is a Tremec T-56 Magnum 6-speed manual transmission, sourced from American Powertrain, delivering modern drivability and bulletproof strength.

The engine bay sets the tone for the rest of the build with custom inner fender panels featuring a unique circle pattern, which is echoed throughout the interior and trunk-on the valve covers, door panels, center console, and shifter.

Chassis & Suspension:
- Art Morrison Chassis

- Strange Engineering Coilovers

- Strange Axles

- Fully upgraded braking and suspension setup for handling and ride quality that rivals modern muscle.

- 4 Corner Wilwood Brakes with 4-piston on front and rear

- E-Stopp Electric Parking Brake

Interior & Upholstery:
The interior was handcrafted by Sanford Fountain Upholstery, blending show-level aesthetics with comfort. The beautiful tan leather seats are power, with multiple way adjustment. The design continues the circular motif started in the engine bay, carried through to the custom door panels, console, and trunk trim. The dash is clean and shaved for a modern yet classic feel, and the gauges are the Dakota Digital RTX Bel Air style. The steering column is from Ididit, and the paint-matched steering wheel is from Classic Industries - the Bel Air 15-inch reproduction-style steering wheel. Cold AC and hot heat will keep the cabin very comfortable, courtesy of Vintage AC. Play your favorite tunes in this Bel Air thanks to an upgraded Pioneer Head Unit, mated to a JL Audio Speaker and Sub set up very cleanly in the trunk.
