The Bel Air is a full-sized sedan meant to be the opposite of discreet. It was made for people who despised being discreet, it was made for people who loved to be noticed, for people who smoked only Cuban cigars and drank tea with their pinkies sticking out. The Bel Air was prestigious, and the fact that it went on to be considered one of the most iconic cars of the 1950s speaks for its homage. One might find it hard that this specific second-generation Bel Air is nearly seventy years old, and that is probably because it reportedly had an entire body-off restoration in 2022. As of now, we're glad to announce that this beauty is up for sale.
The second-generation Bel Air went through a complete design change from the first. Nicknamed the 'hot one,' this Bel Air was no longer subtle. It was in your face, and it was sexy. It had chrome spears on the front fenders, shiny chrome bumpers, full-wheel covers, and the iconic 'Ferrari-inspired' front grille. This specific 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Restomod captures all those features beautifully, especially with the striking red exterior paint that contrasts with the reportedly new chrome parts. The Bel Air also has new tires and a color-matching soft top. Something that is not as common in most modern-day automobiles is the level of detail that goes into its interior. It would be insipid to call the interior of this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air anything lesser than art, especially with its beautiful color-matching dashboard that the seller reports being all new. Leather seating is a standard offering, but the two-tone finish mimics the car's exterior perfectly. There are also reports of a new JL sound system tucked away in the trunk.
As for power, the second-generation Bel Air received various powertrains. This specific 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air resto-mod is reported to have had its 283ci 4.6L engine completely rebuilt and is aided by a 3-speed Turboglide automatic transmission.
