We will start with the exterior of this Bel Air. As you walk around it, you'll notice that it has an excellent fit of the panels, hood, and doors. This is a hard-top model, and we can see that the glass goes up and down with a great fit as well and that both doors open and close with ease. When this car was restored all the Chrome and stainless were either polished to like new finish or were replaced. It does a great job of accenting the 2-tone turquoise and white color scheme that has been redone and base code clear code. You'll notice that both the front and rear bumpers have a beautiful finish and that it does sport both the front and rear bumper guards. All the glass in this Chevrolet is in very nice condition along with the seals and weather stripping. Also, all the lights wipers and turn signals are working as they should. To finish off the stamps it's sitting on a set of American racing wheels.
Next, we will look at the interior of this 55. The interior follows suit with the exterior as it's done in the 2 tone blue and white color scheme that flows perfectly with the exterior. It does feature the standard crank windows and vent windows. It also comes with the bench seat option up front and in the rear. At the time of the restoration new carpet and headliner were installed, and you'll notice that all the headliner trim is very nice. Looking at the dash it has a stock feel as it has factory-style gauges and speedometer that are working as well. A new digital radio has been installed but has not been hooked up to new speakers. You'll also notice that vintage air conditioning was added with the vents located under the dash and the controls in the factory location. Inside the trunk is all solid and has been finished out with the trunk liner.
Finally, we will get to the heartbeat of this Chevrolet. Under the hood, it's all solid as the inner fenders and firewall look to be in great condition. The power comes from a 350 V8 engine that's set up with a four-barrel intake and carb. It's dressed out in the finned valve covers and air cleaner. We can see that the radiator support was upgraded along with having the Griffin radiator installed. This '55 does come with vintage AC & Heat along with having Power Steering and Power Brakes with disc up front. For exhaust, it has manifolds with dual pipes and mufflers. The 350 V8 runs through the 700R automatic transmission and stock-style rear end. When we look under this '55 we can see that the floor pans are all solid and look to be in great condition. The frame also looks excellent and has been very well cared for over the years. All the suspension and bushings also look very nice. On the highway, this '55 runs out very nice and handles with ease.
