Its status as Americas best-selling car brand for the bulk of the postwar era brought success and swagger..1955, Chevy needed a new car to keep up with the competitions advances-and the divisions engineers and stylists delivered; Chevys V-8-powered 1955 sedan lineup really was as new as it got in Detroit in the 50s. Comparing the 1954 and 55 Chevy lines, virtually the only things that remained were the conventional front-engine/rear-drive layout, names (150, 210, Bel Air, et al), the chassis 115-inch wheelbase, and the wheel-and-tire combo. All-new body, all-new chassis, all-new V-8 engine, and new optional overdrive behind the (admittedly extant) three-speed manual transmission. Youd scarcely believe a 54 and a 55 Bel Air were built a model year apart.”. Offered here is an exceptional 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air hardtop, beautifully restored, and tastefully upgraded while maintaining all the classic elements that make the model an American icon. Although not original from the factory, the steel-gray metallic paint color suits the car perfectly, and the refreshed interior avoids any glitzy additions that might detract from the period-correct statement. The cars odometer shows 5,904 miles accumulated since the restoration work was completed, and much of the work on the car is supported in a sheaf of documents included in the sale.. The exterior steel-gray finish is the result of a professional respray incorporating, in addition to the exterior body panels: the metal dashboard, steering wheel, underside of the trunk lid (and body edges inside the trunk), door edges, jambs and sills, and the underside of the hood (and body edges in the engine bay). Chrome bumpers and body trim pieces are in very well-maintained condition with only light patina. (To best assess the quality of the paint and trim finishes, please be sure to view the close-up photographs of the car in the accompanying gallery.) Factory badging includes the Chevrolet-crest emblem on the hood (as well as the jet-style hood ornament).
