The Chevrolet Bel Air was the General Motors marque’s competitor in the full-size segment, alongside the Townsman and Handyman. Introduced in 1953 as the successor of the Fleetline, the Bel Air would go on for thirty one years and eight generations. If you’re interested in a Fifties Chevy, this second-generation 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air 2 Door Sedan from Utah that’s travelled 80,000 miles to date would be just the ticket. Fifties classics, especially those in fine condition only appreciate in price, so it’s also a savvy investment as well as a head turner.
The second-generation Bel Air bore the slogan ‘Hot One’ in GM’s advertising campaign, and was an all-new design. The second generation Bel Air was offered in a slew of body styles, including two and four door hardtops, two and four door sedans, two-door convertible and two and four door station wagons. 1956 saw a facelift with a full-width front grille and two-tone paintwork, which this 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air 2 Door Sedan proudly shows off in its orange and white color scheme. Furthermore, the seller reports that the car wears new front and rear chrome bumpers, as well as a new windshield and glass all round. This Bel Air rolls on silver rims with an orange stripe around the border, and white-striped tires, reflecting the two-tone bodywork. The chrome hubcaps add a shiny flourish, and the car wears Nexen tires all round. All brightwork looks fantastic, including the hood mascot, and twin silver tailpipes at the rear cap off the outlook. The interior is, surprise, surprise, also orange and white, with front and rear bench seats. The radio has been replaced with an aftermarket unit that looks period correct but offers some modern features, however, should you prefer, the original radio is included in the sale as well. Interior gauges, brightwork and details look pristine too.
Four engines were offered for the second generation Bel Air, and this 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air 2 Door Sedan is powered by a 265ci (4.3L) small-block V8 engine which puts out a rated 160hp to the rear wheels via a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission.
