For Sale: 1958 Chevrolet Delray in Rogers, Minnesota

This 1958 Chevrolet Del Ray is a great entry level classic car with some custom 50s flair! Coming off the success of the 1957 model year, Chevrolet entered 1958 with big changes that marked both a new design direction and General Motors' 50th Anniversary celebration. While the American auto industry faced economic headwinds that year, Chevrolet pushed forward with an all-new lineup that ranged from the entry-level Delray to the top-of-the-line Impala-each reflecting the brand's modernized "lower, longer, and wider" styling. For 1958, the Chevrolet Delray represented exceptional value and style in the full-size car segment. The Del Ray was completely redesigned from the ground up, showcasing a sleeker profile, a bold new front grille, and the all-new dual-headlight design that replaced the single headlamps of 1957. This updated front fascia gave the car a more upscale and contemporary look, while the sculpted body sides and subtle chrome accents added a touch of sophistication not often seen in an entry-level model. At the rear, the 1958 Delray featured Chevrolet's dramatic new styling theme, highlighted by "missile-style" taillights set within sweeping rear quarter panels that replaced the previous year's tailfin design. The result was a look that captured the spirit of late-1950s American automotive design-bold, futuristic, and unmistakably Chevrolet. The 1958 Chevrolet Delray remains a favorite among collectors and enthusiasts today for its clean lines, vintage charm, and historical significance as part of Chevrolet's Golden Anniversary lineup, and of course its approachable price point-a car that perfectly blended affordability, performance, and mid-century American style. This particular Chevy Delray comes to us from a local '58 Chevy collector who stewarded the car for the past 17 years. Under the hood on this '58 Del Ray is a 283 cubic inch V8 engine fed by a single 2 barrel carburetor. The 283 V8 is backed by a 3 speed manual transmission with a floor mounted shifter that makes this 1958 Chevy a really fun car to take on a Sunday cruise. Exhaust exits the small block Chevy powerplant via stock exhaust manifolds and out a dual exhaust setup that generates a terrific throaty sound. You'll have piece of mind while hanging lanes and squeezing into a tight parking space thanks to dual chrome outside mirrors that allow you to see down the sides of this Chevy 2 door. This 1958 Del Ray rides on a brand new set of wide whitewall radial tires mounted on steel wheels and finished with polished full wheelcovers that together give the car a fantastic look and even better ride! The body of this 1958 Chevrolet has been refinished in a custom Fathom Blue Metallic paint that completes the exterior look of cool classic car. The interior of this 1958 Chevrolet Del Ray is a major highlight! The front and rear bench seats have been reupholstered in Grey cloth with Blue diamond-stitched cloth inserts and blue piping that give the car a custom yet period-correct look and feel. Additionally, the door panels, sun visors and headliner have all been re-done, sporting matching upholstery. Brand new blue carpeting was recently installed and complements the Fathom Blue metallic painted dash and stock steering wheel. The instrumentation includes a 120 MPH speedometer, temperature gauge, and fuel gauge. The stock instrument cluster is further supplemented by a pair of VDO gauges for temperature and oil pressure which are mounted neatly under the dash. The dash is finished off with a clock, locking glovebox, various controls, and an upgraded Sony AM/FM/CD entertainment system that will allow you to listen to all of your tunes while cruising down the road.
