1955 Chevrolet Bel Air Resto-Mod

Description

It's hard to find a more all-American cruiser than a red and white 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air hardtop. And it will be hard to find a more cruiser-ready car than this one. It's a well-done restomod with subtilty integrated additions like fuel injection, an overdrive transmission, air conditioning and Bluetooth. In fact, there were big investments all around this car, and all were done within about the last five years. It was all about creating the most authentic look possible and hiding all the best cruiser-ready features. So take some time looking over the full package because some of the best upgrades are so well integrated that you may miss them with just a casual glance.

There is an instant attraction to this car. It's a first-year Tri-Five Chevy in a stunningly coordinated red and white package. So the only way it gets any more patriotic is if you're standing next to it wearing your bluest Levi's and holding an apple pie. But what we really love is how everything works in harmony to be a real driver. For example, people are more likely to notice how the red wheels and wide whitewall tires nicely coordinate with the exterior paint. They are less likely to see that behind this classic setup is a modern tread for modern touring. It's also hard to see the fuel injection, disc brakes upgrade, overdrive transmission, Bluetooth radio, upgraded steering wheel on a tilt column, or overdrive transmission. You can tell this Chevy wants to put the quality classic feeling out there in front, and it saves the excellent driver upgrades for you to understand only when you're behind the wheel (or bragging about them.) That makes for an upper-tier restomod, and those are always in demand. So don't miss out, call today!
