Overview of 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air For Sale by Owner

For petrol heads who have a particular interest in the American brand Chevrolet, the term "Tri Five" is well known. For those who don’t know, the 1955–1957 Chevrolets, specifically the 150, 210, Bel Air, and Nomad were nicknamed the Tri Fives. This time frame marked a huge turning point for the manufacturer and brought major success. On this listing, we are focusing on the top trim offering among these models, the Bel Air. The second generation of this stunning car was introduced in 1955 as the “Hot One” and was well received by the motor magazines at the time. With this restomod 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air with less than 90,000 miles on the clock, we're offering you the chance to experience this iconic classic.

The second-generation Bel Air received revamped styling and featured round headlights, a large chrome grille up front, and stunning fin-tails in the back that define this generation. Our subject 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air is finished in beautiful white paint work, which is accentuated beautifully by the chrome and turquoise accents throughout the car. The stance of this Bel Air is attended to by a set of Boyd Codington 15-inch alloy wheels wrapped in new Cooper Cobra Radial tires and recently installed air shocks.

The interior has been maintained as close to original as possible with the gorgeous turquoise steering wheel and dashboard taking point as the stars of the interior. The current owner reports that its original radio still functions flawlessly. Power steering and the custom trunk setup add to the usability of the car as well.

The Bel Air was offered from factory with the 283 cubic inch V8, but this example has been swapped with the engine from the sportier cousin of the Bel Air. Boasting the Corvette 327 cubic inch small block V8, this 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air puts out 100 horsepower more than the stock engine. The V8 is mated to the original power glide transmission that transits the power seamlessly to the rear wheels.
