Beautiful two tone, Gypsy Red and Shoreline Beige 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air convertible with Light Ivory, Red interior and a Beige soft top. This stunning Bel Air convertible was a solid southern car; it was repainted in its very desirable original two tone colors. This has been trimmed with a good mix of new chrome and stainless. It has a well preserved original trim with lots of extras like the rear chrome continental kit, complete chrome front bumper with guards, rear painted skirts, .....
stainless fingernail guards and a stainless fuel door guard. The paint has a bright shine and covers a rock solid southern body with good gaps and lines. This Bel Air convertible came from a large private collection in Miami, where it lived a pampered life in a climate controlled environment, was driven sparingly, and enjoyed with great care. The engine bay is highly detailed and showcases the code correct 265/205 4 bbl. engine with Powerglide automatic transmission. Upgrades were made to make the driving experience more enjoyable like power rack and pinion steering and aluminum radiator for increased cooling. The Red and Light Ivory was all new at the time of the restoration and looks amazing. The dash, gauges and original steering wheel all have the iconic look and feel that made this tri-five one of the most popular cars of all time. The trunk is correctly painted and complete with mat and jack. This American Dream Machine is rolling on new wide whites and Bel Air chrome hubcaps for timeless good looks.EXTERIOR: Correct code 615S two tone Shoreline Beige and Gypsy Red Beige convertible top Rear chrome continental kit Front 3 piece chrome bumper guards Rear painted skirts Nice mix of original and new Bel Air stainless trim Slight patina on some of the original trim New wide whites and Bel Air hubcapsINTERIOR: Red and Light Ivory interior Very nice painted dash Clear and crisp instrumentation Original steering wheel Classic am fm radio Red fitted carpet Polished Bel Air trimMECHANICS: Correct 265 c.i. engine with 205 rated h.p.
