1956 Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 -- Description

Searching for a sizzling custom that mixes fully sorted mechanicals with great aesthetics? You've found your next classic! While Friendsville Tennessee's Automotive Sandblasting & Restoration gave this Bel Air's body plenty of attention that work was specifically aimed at creating the most perfect surface possible. And the result is panels that are amazingly flat displaying nary a ripple or wave anywhere. As expected that stripped and straightened profile ensures fit and finish that's significa...ntly above '50s factory fodder. Knoxville Tennessee's Rick Lay sprayed a glossy combination of metallic burgundy and pearl white 2-stage which lends the car a reserved and sophisticated demeanor. And naturally that rich pigment reflects a spectacular shine that'll equal any first-rate classic at any local show. Under the hood you'll find 383 cubic inches of polished Dart stroker motor. Behind that mill a proven Turbo-Hydramatic 400 3-speed funnels torque from a 2300 RPM stall converter to a tough Ford 9-inch that's finished with 3.70 gears 31-spline axles and an Eaton posi-traction differential. That third member rides 2-inch drop springs and adjustable coil-over-shocks. At the front of that awesome drivetrain a power-assisted CPP steering box floats between a thick sway bar CPP control arms 2-inch drop spindles and 1-inch drop springs. At the corners of the car color-keyed calipers squeeze drilled and slotted rotors. At the center of the floor aluminized exhaust pipes follow electric cut-outs with baritone turbo mufflers. And all this mechanical goodness rolls on chrome Coys wheels which spin 225/45R18 Nankang Noble Sports in front of 245/40ZR20 Nankang Noble Sports. Wrapped in a detailed frame-off restoration that would probably take a second mortgage to duplicate this Chevy rolls on the right side of impressive! Call click or visit for more information!
