1955 Chevrolet 210

Description

Modern color, modern A/C interior, but iconic styling and V8 power... this 1955 Chevrolet 210 is the right kind of classic for a driver who likes to be noticed.

This design we all instantly recognize as an icon, so when updating it, it has to look as good as this. It starts with the Black Cherry Metallic paint. You know no one could get this kind of luster from the factory in '55, and instead this is an investment in smooth clearcoat for a very modern shine. Plus, the upgraded Bel Air trim, which also makes for a great separating line for the sand beige two-tone. Add in 15-inch torque thrust wheels, and the total effect is everything you love about a '55 Chevy, but with extra flair that lets people know they should go in for a closer look.

And when they do, the first thing they'll spot is a much more modern and luxurious interior. The exterior black cherry returns as an accent piece to serve as a bridge to the tan interior. Leather bucket seats with a comfy cup holder center console is your first indication that this is a classic Chevy that can provide all-day comfort. The door panels, headliner, and even the trunk are all nicely coordinated and have the fresh feeling of a good investment. This '55 retains the dual cowl sporty dash that we all love, but now it's filled with great upgrades. This includes a modern AM/FM/CD stereo system and air conditioning running cold R134a. The driver's seat is power adjustable, so you can perfectly position yourself in front of the wood rim Grant GT sports steering wheel. And beyond that you get the upgrade of a full AutoMeter gauge package that shines just as bright as the rest of the dash.

Grab your sunglasses before popping the hood, because all of your major components – including the air topper, valve covers, master cylinder, alternator, and compressor – have been polished to a mirror-like shine. And more than just look great, this 350 cubic-inch V8 has been upgraded for performance with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock chrome intake, and long tube headers that feed the rumbling H-pipe dual exhaust. But don't just look at this as a pure power build. There are thoughtful upgrades like the 700R4 four-speed transmission with highway-friendly overdrive, and the aluminum radiator that keeps this V8 running cool even in traffic with the A/C running. Add in power steering, front disc brakes, and BF Goodrich T/A tires, and you can instantly tell this is a great anytime cruising classic.

Everything about this car is smooth – from the way the paint feels to how the V8 purrs. It's the perfect mix of an iconic presentation with all the right modern upgrades. And all this distinction can be yours if you call today!
