HIGHLIGHTS: Full frame-off restomod completed in 2017 by Keith's
Restoration & Rod Shop (Mocksville, NC) LS3 6.2L GM Performance V8
crate engine with ceramic-coated headers 4L65E 4-speed automatic
transmission Ford 9" rear with 3.50 posi-traction Custom chassis
from Hardcore Chassis Coilover suspension front and rear with
tubular A-arms and 4-link setup Wilwood power disc brakes: 6-piston
front, 4-piston rear Electric power rack & pinion steering Vintage
Air A/C and heat Dakota Digital gauges, Ididit polished tilt
column, JVC Bluetooth stereo Viper Red paint, custom black leather
interior including trunk and power seat Coys chrome Torq-Thrust
style wheels Over 7,500 miles since completion-built to drive, not
just show! BODY OVERVIEW: This '55 Bel Air keeps the timeless
Tri-Five lines but sits lower, meaner, and cleaner. The body is
straight and well-aligned with tight panel gaps, and the smoothed
firewall adds to the clean, high-end custom appearance. Details
like the beautifully polished trim and attention to details like
the panel alignment make it clear this is no backyard build-this is
a high-level restomod with real craftsmanship behind it. PAINT
CONDITION OVERVIEW: The Viper Red finish is nothing short of
electric. It's glossy, deep, and professionally finished, showing
extremely well with minimal wear from use. It pops in sunlight and
steals the spotlight everywhere it goes. If you want a car that is
really, truly, RED, this is it! The paint has held up beautifully
over the last 7,500 miles and remains in show condition. INTERIOR
CONDITION OVERVIEW: Inside, it's all modern luxury wrapped in
classic style. The custom black leather upholstery covers the
seats, door panels, headliner, and even the trunk. The power
driver's seat adds comfort, while the Dakota Digital gauges, tilt
column, and wood steering wheel elevate the driving experience. No
rips, no scuffs-just clean, high-quality craftsmanship throughout.
But the best part? All of this has been done without removing the
beautiful original styling cues that make a tri-five a tri-five!
MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: Pop the hood and it's clear this build was
done right. The LS3 crate motor delivers modern muscle, while
ceramic-coated headers and a tune from PCM of NC ensure smooth
performance. This is no junkyard Tahoe engine swap! During the
build, they even took time to add chrome under the hood and an
engine cover that helps make that powerful LS look right at home.
Notice the way the A/C lines are run into the fender for a cleaner
appearance. Everything about this car is thoughtful and
intentional! The 4L65E overdrive transmission and Ford 9" rear make
this a highway cruiser or stoplight warrior-your choice. Electric
power steering, Wilwood brakes, high-capacity radiator, and dual
fans keep it all cool and composed. With coilover shocks all the
way around, tubular A-arms in the front, and 4-link in the rear,
this '55 handles like other '55s can only dream of! With over 7,500
miles since completion, this puppy is dialed in. WHAT YOU'LL LOVE
ABOUT THIS CAR: Killer combination of vintage style and modern
performance Show-quality build that's actually road-tested LS3
power with all the supporting upgrades to back it up Every detail,
from the custom chassis to the finished trunk, was carefully
thought out and beautifully executed! Turns heads, drops jaws, and
wins trophies! WHAT YOU MIGHT HATE ABOUT THIS CAR: If you're afraid
of attention, this car isn't for you It's so nice, it's almost
scary to drive it! The mix of original and modern components means
this isn't a plug-and-play car for shade-tree tinkerers DOES IT
NEED ANYTHING? Nope-it's turn-key and ready to drive. If you want a
showstopper you can enjoy on the road, it's already there! WHAT
