1955 Bel Air 2door sedan--bought in 1993--have known the car since 1988--I am the fifth owner. Has been garage kept most of its life--original floors, braces, rocker panels. . Very straight and rust free body.
Painted Champaigne over Beechwood.

Over the years I have done a frame on restoration.

Has a balanced/modified 283--bored .060--10 to 1 pistons--power pack heads--lazer cam, edelbrock RPM and 600 carb, Pete Jacskon gear drive--hedders---ultra flow exhaust-- Muncie M-20 fined splined 4 speed to the original 3.70 rear end. Desktop dyno--315 h.p. at the flywheel.

Original seats, done in Saddle tan---chrome ididit tilt column, tach gauges, am/fm/casette.

Manual disc/drum brakes, new radial T/A tires last year, Centerline wheels.
more done to the car than listed.

Have driven this car over 25000 miles since owned it--rides and drives great. Rock solid car.

Asking $32,000---Hoping to be making an offer on one of 2 57 Chevies I have found and would really like to have the 55 gone(need room)
Thanks

Nice little car you have there. Money seems fair market for it but many would favor it with a more classic set of wheels in my opinion. Good luck with the sale and post some pics of the 57 when you get it.
