Over 30 factory options! Ground up restored.
Loaded with options Real! I counted 30. Real Bel Air, California built. Same owner in Florida the last 16 years.EXTERIOR: The body is amazing. It is absolutely laser beam straight from every angle. The body panels fit precisely, they are smooth, square and flush. Repainted it's original colors Dawn gray and India ivory. The gray metal flake is laid out evenly and the entire car has a smooth glossy finish. There are only minor imperfections that you would have to look for. When it was restored every bit of stainless trim was either polished or replaced, all of the chrome was redone or replaced. The jambs are very clean, the hardware and latches look real good. The doors just click shut, the flippers above the windows work. It is loaded up with all the optional factory trim. The working spotlights with mirrors are very desirable. It even has a continental kit in back. It also has the rare wire basket hub caps with reproduction whitewall BF Goodrich Silvertown tires. It has the original glass in the car, there's some minor wiper marks on the windshield.
INTERIOR: Completely restored inside. The carpet and kick panels were replaced. Up under the dash, the heater box, everything looks really nice. The padded dash is excellent. The trim, levers and knobs on the dash look real nice. The seats are excellent, some of the chrome foil is peeling off the piping. The door panels were all replaced. The headliner and visors are excellent The power windows and the power seat work very well. It also has a wonderbar radio, clock, tissue dispenser, day/night mirror, heel pad gas pedal and vanity mirrors on the visors.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The engine compartment is completely restored to factory new condition. It has the Blue Flame 140 6-cylinder that will run forever. All the components look restored. It is proper with correct hose clamps, the battery is mounted properly. Features include power steering and power brakes. Also electric wipers with washers, an oil filter and sound deadener under the hood.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Completely refinished. All nice metal painted white. It has a matching restored spare, the rim is silver with a reproduction white wall. The jack assembly is restored. It has the correct mat, weatherstrip and decal.
UNDERSIDE: The body was off the frame for restoration. The floors and braces appear to be solid original metal with factory undercoat and then it was sprayed with red oxide primer. The chassis is smooth clean metal painted a satin black. The front end steering and suspension was rebuilt at the time of restoration. The rear suspension was also rebuilt and it has lowering blocks. The fuel system looks new. The gas tank is shiny, fuel lines are replaced. The brakes were restored. Brake lines were replaced, e-brake assembly is hooked up. The single exhaust with a cherry bomb muffler converts to duals in back. Looking up at the motor it is very clean. The Powerglide transmission is clean. The rear end was restored and detailed.
I've never seen a Chevy with this many options. It not only looks great but it functions really well too. I drove it home and it makes a great cruiser.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail.
**These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded and you will be given a 1 year membership.
