No Reserve Classics proudly presents this 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air, a head-turning blend of classic styling and modern performance. It features a Dry Sump LS7 making 700HP off of E85. High burning fuel for a high octane experience in its daring black looks.

Under the hood is a no-compromise 430ci dry-sump LS7, engineered to deliver supercar-level performance with race-grade reliability. Featuring 11.6:1 compression, this LS7 retains its stock forged crankshaft and factory titanium connecting rods, upgraded with Wiseco forged pistons for durability under aggressive use. The engine is topped with LME CNC-ported factory heads fitted with titanium valves, BTR dual valve springs, and titanium retainers, while an RPM B3 camshaft delivers a hard-hitting, unmistakable LS7 powerband.Airflow is maximized through a Holley Hi-Ram intake manifold with a 102mm throttle body and FIC 1000cc injectors, supported by a Wegner Performance front accessory drive. Lubrication is handled by a dry-sump system with a Speedtech Performance oil pan and remote-mounted oil filter, ensuring oil control under extreme driving conditions. Cooling and comfort are equally refined with a BeCool dual-pass radiator with custom fan mount and a fully integrated Vintage Air A/C and heat system, making this LS7 as street-friendly as it is track-capable.

The iconic lines of the 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air remain instantly recognizable, yet this build carries a far more aggressive presence than stock. The classic Tri-Five silhouette is enhanced by a purposeful stance that hints at the modern performance hiding beneath the body. Subtle refinements and a lowered profile give the car a confident, planted look, blending timeless 1950s design with unmistakable pro-touring attitude. Every angle communicates performance, restraint, and craftsmanship without straying from the Bel Air's legendary identity.

Inside, the cabin is reimagined with a driver-focused layout that seamlessly blends classic styling with modern technology. Dakota Digital gauges provide precise, contemporary instrumentation, while an adjustable steering column allows for a tailored driving position. A custom center console anchors the cockpit, housing modern conveniences without disrupting the vintage aesthetic. Entertainment and connectivity come via a Kenwood audio system featuring Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, offering modern usability on every drive. A Sport-Comp style RPM gauge, suspended from the headliner, reinforces the car's performance-first intent, placing engine feedback directly in the driver's line of sight. Climate comfort is handled by Vintage Air A/C and heat, ensuring year-round drivability without compromise.

Beneath the Bel Air's classic body lies a thoroughly modernized, performance-driven foundation. Power is delivered through a Tremec T56 Magnum close-ratio 6-speed transmission, paired with an ACT Street Twin clutch and lightweight flywheel for crisp engagement. The drivetrain is completed by a Quick Performance 9-inch rear differential with 3.89 gears, an Eaton Wavetrac differential, and 35-spline hardened axles, all connected by a custom 3.5-inch driveshaft with 1350-series U-joints and billet yokes.
Handling is transformed through Global West front control arms with Del-A-Lum bushings, a Global West front sway bar, Heidts 2-inch drop spindles, and a Saginaw 605 steering box conversion. Viking double-adjustable Warrior shocks at all four corners allow precise tuning, while the rear features a Chris Alston's 36-inch pro ladder bar setup with dual panhard bars and custom mounting for maximum stability and traction. The result is a Tri-Five that drives with modern confidence, precision, and authority.
