This 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air is a two-door sedan that is finished in red over white upholstery and powered by a replacement 350ci V8 paired with a Muncie four-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes 15″ American Racing wheels, power steering, four-wheel disc brakes, air conditioning, aftermarket instrumentation, power-operated front seats, a center console, and a Pioneer multimedia stereo system. This Bel Air was acquired by the seller approximately 10 years ago and is now offered with manufacturer’s literature and a clean Texas title in the seller’s name.
The car was refinished in red during previous ownership and features tinted windows as well as chrome bumpers, side spears, window trim, and side mirrors. Scratches are noted throughout, and other blemishes can be seen in the photo gallery below.
Chrome 15″ American Racing wheels are mounted with 235/60 front and 275/60 rear BFGoodrich Radial T/A white-letter tires. Equipment includes four-wheel disc brakes, power steering, and anti-roll bars.
The front seats were reportedly sourced from a Chevy truck and are trimmed in white leather with a matching rear bench and door panels. The center console is trimmed in red leather and houses a Pioneer multimedia touchscreen stereo receiver, and additional equipment includes a Vintage Air HVAC system, billet aluminum door and window handles, a Hurst T-handle shifter, and aluminum trimmed pedal covers.
The leather-wrapped four-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of a body-color dash housing aftermarket instrumentation that includes a 140-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for fuel level, battery voltage, oil pressure, and coolant temperature. The six-digit odometer shows 3,300 miles, and total mileage is unknown. The tachometer does not work.
The replacement 350ci V8 was installed during prior ownership and is equipped with long-tube headers as well as an aluminum intake manifold, valve covers, air cleaner, and radiator. The carburetor was overhauled during current ownership, and the seller notes oil leaks.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Muncie four-speed manual transmission. Additional photos of the underside are provided in the gallery.
