Trim Convertible

Chevrolet : Bel Air/150/210 National Award Winning 210 383/425 HP V8 5 Speed Manual Leather PS A/C

$89,900

Charlotte, North Carolina

[email protected] 5527 Lakeview Road, Charlotte, NC, 28269, US 1955 Chevrolet 210 National Award Winning 210 383/425 HP V8 5 Speed Manual Leather PS A/C Year: 1955 Type of vehicle title: Clear Primary color: Blue Mileage: 1340 Transmission type: 5 Speed Manual Engine: 383 V8 Interior color: White Vehicle Info In the collector car hobby, you can find tons of awesome tri-fives which carry timeless style that will forever be associated with one of the greatest designs in automotive history. But as nice as those cars are, their extensive use of chrome and avid dedication to concours homogeny has almost become a handicap in today's modernist hot rod culture. "Sleek" and "Contemporary" are increasingly becoming key words for most classic car builders, and that means rides like this awesome 1955 210 are really starting to hit their prime. Built as a head turning classic that looks good and performs great, this cool old Chevy wraps a stunning exterior around a mean, 383 cubic inch stroker motor, a proven Tremec TKO500 transmission and a custom leather interior that's complete with modern air conditioning. If you're a fan 50s Chevrolet design, but would rather have an edgy hot rod than a chrome-laden parking lot princess, this razor-sharp resto-mod is the shining star you've been wishing on! When a gearhead says the words "Sleek" and "Contemporary", the first thing that usually comes to mind is a mirror-like coat of high quality urethane that's sealed over a fully restored, arrow-straight body. And naturally, this sedan's killer combination of House Of Kolor True Blue and Cadillac White Diamond displays deep reflections on virtually flawless surfaces. Those deep reflections are the result of a complete, frame-off restoration that was facilitated by the car's original family. And today, this classy Chevy is a super cool crowd pleaser that storms sweltering summer show fields like a refreshing fall breeze! It's no secret that the very best customs are those which draw the eye by adjusting a car's original attributes. The spectator KNOWS something is different, but has to think about the model's form and, over time, virtually decode its appearance - that's true art! At the front of this Chevy's bright profile, a trademark stainless grille is centered between chrome-trimmed headlights, a nosed hood, clear parking lamps and a slick smoothie bumper. At the sides of that Ferrari-inspired grille, sharp fender lines lead the eye to a clean profile that's accented by chrome door handles, a shaved fuel door and traditional quarter spears. Above those fender lines, lightly smoked glass floats behind new stainless trim and mirrored stainless wipers. And at the back of that glass, a decked trunk rides between chrome-trimmed tail lights, a body-width bumper and big stainless exhaust tips. By now it's probably pretty obvious this tri-five was built to be seen. But, thanks to the 383 cubic inch stroker under its hood, that might be easier said than done! The car's 425 horsepower amalgamation of chrome and True Blue pigment revs under a chrome Edelbrock carburetor that's sandwiched between a bowtie wing nut, a chrome, "CHEVROLET" branded air cleaner, braided fuel lines and a chrome Edelbrock intake. At the perimeter of that intake, aluminum GM Performance Parts heads prop polished valve covers under bowtie-branded hardware while a modern HEI distributor shoots spark through red GM Performance Parts plug wires. Below those wires, snazzy bowtie looms float over ceramic coated headers while a Concept One pulley system spins a chrome water pump between polished AC components, a chrome alternator, billet power steering components and a chrome fuel pump. And in front of that fuel pump, a beefy Griffin radiator circulates clean coolant between a polished overflow tank and two quick spinning puller fans. Despite being a modern piece, the hot small block looks right at home in this 210's clean engine compartment. And details like body-matched fenders, a chrome brake booster, a polished Street and Performance water neck and chrome corrugated hoses create a nice, finished appearance. I know what you're thinking... Despite that stroked motor, this Chevy's just another garden-variety 350/350 rod. Well, guess again. The stout small block utilizes a modern Tremec 5-speed to spin a tough Quick Performance 9-inch around eager 3.70 gears. That tweaked drivetrain is housed in a completely rebuilt suspension which, with the help of Eckler's power rack and pinion steering and Eckler's power, 4-wheel disc brakes, provides excellent handling. And that rebuilt suspension, fitted with a custom Heidts front clip, Eckler's springs, an Eckler's sway bar and adjustable air shocks, rides on a classic combination of Foose Legends wheels and aggressive Riken radials. Naturally, the car's solid floors have been color-matched in a durable coat of House Of Kolor True Blue. Completely fresh hardware is present and accounted for from its big stainless fuel tank all the way to its lines and hoses. A raucous engine note is provided by aluminized, true-dual pipes that breathe through dual-chamber Flowmaster mufflers. And all this stellar hardware and expert craftsmanship adds up to one awesome, road ready classic that'll provide years of carefree cruising! Installed by the pros at King's Auto Upholstery in Roanoke, Virginia, this 210's Pearl White cockpit presents the kind of quality craftsmanship that separates parade cars from Power Tour cars. The power front bucket and rear bench seats, which cost right at $15K, are covered in soft hides that display no significant wear. In front of those seats, a painted and leather-topped dash is detailed with polished trim, Classic Instruments gauges and hardware for a modern Vintage Air climate system. Below that dash, high quality carpet anchors a chrome Hurst shifter, a remote controlled JVC CD player and small power window switches between billet foot pedals and color-keyed floor mats. At the sides of that console, custom door panels look great between painted frames, classy billet handles and traditionally sculpted armrests. Above those panels, a custom headliner frames a fully functional dome light. In front of the driver, a polished and half-wrapped steering wheel spins around a polished, tilting column. And behind the passengers, a custom package tray hangs two small speakers above a custom upholstered trunk. Fresh out of its professional restoration, this Chevy won a pile of national awards. Here's a list of the car's most significant accolades:NSRA Pick at the 2010 Run to the SunTrailered Custom Senior First Place at the 2010 Music City Chevy Show (999/1000 points)Outstanding 1955-57 Modified at the 2010 Virginia Motorsports Park Super Chevy ShowTrailered Custom First Place at the 2010 Winter National (994/1000 points)Trailered Custom Senior First Place at the 2011 Winter National (999/1000 points)Outstanding Modified at the 2011 Virginia Motorsports Park Super Chevy Show The sale of this top notch classic includes an album of restoration photos, a pile of restoration receipts, a few component manuals and the aforementioned awards. If you're bored with the showroom-static tri-fives that dominate today's concours events, this stunning 210 is the car for you! With serious go power, a comfortable interior and tons of high performance hardware, it's the kind of classic that can be enjoyed year after year. So, what are you waiting for?

Chevrolet : Bel Air/150/210 National Award Winning Bel Air Convertible 283/220 HP

$139,900

Charlotte, North Carolina

[email protected] 5527 Lakeview Road, Charlotte, NC, 28269, US 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air National Award Winning Bel Air Convertible 283/220 HP Year: 1957 Type of vehicle title: Clear Primary color: White Mileage: 1056 Transmission type: 2 Speed Automatic Engine: 283 V8 Interior color: Red Vehicle info Experience tells us some restorations are so nice there's simply no way we can charge enough to cover the cost of their builds. And with 1957 Bel Air convertibles being six-figure purchases as is, we can't even imagine what it took to transform this killer tri-five into a national award winner. You see, collector cars are all about passion. And we've found that the best metal is built by guys who are interested in more than the money a project commands. Wrapping a correct white, red and silver color combination around a correct 283/Powerglide drivetrain, this slick rag top is the kind of well-done classic that'll have you racking up trophies and dreaming of sunsets. If you're one of the many enthusiasts who's constantly torn between the cool feeling of cruising the strip and the proud feeling of rounding the show circuit, why not enjoy a little of both? This exceptionally clean drop-top is a no-compromises build that combines everything great about Bel Air design with marvelous craftsmanship and a correct Chevrolet small block. Officially revived by Steven King of Roanoke, Virginia, this pristine convertible was completely stripped and given a high quality, frame-off restoration that ensured every one of its tall body panels were returned to better-than-factory solidity. Once the car's fenders and doors were mocked up, its ripple-free body was blanketed in correct Imperial Ivory PPG and buried in a durable clearcoat shell. And today, this Chevy rolls as a refreshing spin on a traditional look that combines the visual punch of a classic Ferrari with the visual class of a vintage Cadillac. The '57 is certainly the most well-known of the tri-fives, with brilliant trim and crisp, retro styling that strikes a perfect balance between grandiose '50s bling and exaggerated '60s proportions. At the front of the car, a guarded, body-width bumper centers a gold Bel Air grille behind a pristine Chevrolet crest and two clear parking lamps. Above that crest, Bel Air-exclusive header ornamentation rides between hooded T3 headlights and '57 Chevy-exclusive 'spear bullets and spoons'. At the sides of those headlights, classic tri-five stainless, which visually connects the car's fenders with its fins, is branded by Bel Air-exclusive emblems that display no dulling or imperfections of any kind. At the top of those emblems, curvy chrome trim combines with correct chrome mirrors, new stainless wipers and a black vinyl roof to perfectly frame tinted greenhouse glass. At the back of that roof, peaked stainless caps begin at the top of the car's fins and crawl past angled antennas to a second guarded bumper, optional reverse lamps and '57 Chevy-exclusive tail lights. And above that bumper, a Bel Air-exclusive "Chevrolet" script complements a matching gold "V" and traditional gold tag frame. In the '50s, Chevrolet's 283 cubic inch Super Turbo Fire V8 was the most common choice for factory GM performance. It made an advertised 220 horsepower, created a stout 300 lb./ft. of torque and, even in today's world of 300 horsepower grocery getters, is still quick and very impressive. Follow this Bel Air's slick Imperial shine into its highly detailed engine bay and you'll find a fully rebuilt small block that's been bored .30 over, fitted with hardened valve seats and layered in a thick coat of Chevy Orange paint. At the top of that legendary mill, an old school, gloss black air cleaner funnels wind into a Power Pack-exclusive 4-barrel that's complete with a familiar AC fuel bowl. At the base of that carburetor, a correct cast iron intake feeds air and fuel to authentic Power Pack heads that are capped by stamped and silver-detailed valve covers. At the back of that intake, a traditional points distributor shoots fire through 7mm AC Delco Premium Wires, which are organized into painted metal looms. Once those fires have been lit, a glossy black radiator circulates coolant through reproduction GM hoses and authentic squeeze clamps. Once that air and fuel is torched, bare metal exhaust manifolds whisk spent gases into a Power Pack true-dual exhaust system. And once combustion is created, new V-belts spin a tagged Delco-Remy generator opposite factory power steering. Everything in this Bel Air's freshly painted engine bay is as complete as its pristine exterior panels. And not a detail was missed during the car's calculated restoration; with items like correct tags, correct decals and a Delco yellow cap battery setting a trophy-winning tone. Under this razor-sharp drop-top, a stunningly straight chassis is finished in standard Satin Black paint and, when viewed next to the car's plethora of powdercoated suspension parts, looks so nice you'll swear it's seen less than 100 miles of country black top. Above that top notch chassis, solid red floorpans wear a chip-free coat of what appears to be traditional oxide primer. Behind the engine, a correct 2-speed Powerglide transmission spins torque to a correct rear end that's rebuilt with NOS bearings and 3.36 NOS gears. Holding that road ready powertrain in place is a fully restored suspension which includes traditional control arms up front, correct leaf springs out back and fresh spiral shocks at all four corners. Modern car turning characteristics are provided by an optional power steering system. Short, confident stops come courtesy of optional power drum brakes. At the center of the floor, a 2.5-inch, true-dual exhaust system sends spent gases through deep-sounding turbo mufflers to aluminized tips. And the power hits the pavement thanks to 14-inch steelies, which spin old fashioned 7.50-14 Firestone Deluxe Champion whitewalls around ornate stainless covers. The spectacular cockpits in second generation Bel Airs need no introduction, but here goes. Depress the button on this Chevy's bright chrome door handle and you'll find a correct GM code 683 Red and Silver interior that was installed by Freddie King of Roanoke, Virginia. The rebuilt front and rear bench seats are all-day comfortable and feature supple, chrome-trimmed hides that fit well and feel great. Beneath those seats, fresh black carpet props Bel Air-crested floor mats next to clean silver kick panels and bright Fisher sill plates. At the edges of that carpet, flawless two-tone door panels are anchored beneath sculpted toppers and classy stainless frames. At the front of those panels, a bright red dash is dotted with a Wonder Bar radio, stylish, bowtie-branded gauges and spectacular chrome trim. The driver spins a correct red steering wheel around a chrome horn ring and classic Chevrolet centerpiece. And passengers store their essentials in a freshly finished trunk that features a correct mat, a correct jack, a correct decal and a full-size spare tire. As previously mentioned, this awesome cruiser is the recipient of many prestigious accolades. In 2010, it was awarded National First Prize by the AACA and nominated as an Outstanding Vehicle. That same year, it scored 980 out of 1000 points to earn a Chevy Classics Club Platinum Award. And, in 2011, it was given AACA's Preservation Award and once again nominated as an Outstanding Vehicle. When you add up all the ingredients that went into building this killer Bel Air, it becomes obvious that someone really cherished the car. There are no shortcuts, no marginal parts and nothing that looks out of place on what is uniformly a high-quality piece. Of course, quality never goes out of style. And when you drive this drop-top, you can literally watch the crowds form! About this auction & rk motors charlotte Please note that all sales are binding and final.

At the front of this Chevy's bright profile, a trademark stainless grille is centered between chrome-trimmed headlights, a nosed hood, clear parking lamps and a slick smoothie bumper. At the sides of that Ferrari-inspired grille, sharp fender lines lead the eye to a clean profile that's accented by chrome door handles, a shaved fuel door and traditional quarter spears. Above those fender lines, lightly smoked glass floats behind new stainless trim and mirrored stainless wipers. And at the back of that glass, a decked trunk rides between chrome-trimmed tail lights, a body-width bumper and big stainless exhaust tips. By now it's probably pretty obvious this tri-five was built to be seen. But, thanks to the 383 cubic inch stroker under its hood, that might be easier said than done! The car's 425 horsepower amalgamation of chrome and True Blue pigment revs under a chrome Edelbrock carburetor that's sandwiched between a bowtie wing nut, a chrome, "CHEVROLET" branded air cleaner, braided fuel lines and a chrome Edelbrock intake. At the perimeter of that intake, aluminum GM Performance Parts heads prop polished valve covers under bowtie-branded hardware while a modern HEI distributor shoots spark through red GM Performance Parts plug wires. Below those wires, snazzy bowtie looms float over ceramic coated headers while a Concept One pulley system spins a chrome water pump between polished AC components, a chrome alternator, billet power steering components and a chrome fuel pump. And in front of that fuel pump, a beefy Griffin radiator circulates clean coolant between a polished overflow tank and two quick spinning puller fans. Despite being a modern piece, the hot small block looks right at home in this 210's clean engine compartment. And details like body-matched fenders, a chrome brake booster, a polished Street and Performance water neck and chrome corrugated hoses create a nice, finished appearance. I know what you're thinking... Despite that stroked motor, this Chevy's just another garden-variety 350/350 rod. Well, guess again. The stout small block utilizes a modern Tremec 5-speed to spin a tough Quick Performance 9-inch around eager 3.70 gears. That tweaked drivetrain is housed in a completely rebuilt suspension which, with the help of Eckler's power rack and pinion steering and Eckler's power, 4-wheel disc brakes, provides excellent handling. And that rebuilt suspension, fitted with a custom Heidts front clip, Eckler's springs, an Eckler's sway bar and adjustable air shocks, rides on a classic combination of Foose Legends wheels and aggressive Riken radials. Naturally, the car's solid floors have been color-matched in a durable coat of House Of Kolor True Blue. Completely fresh hardware is present and accounted for from its big stainless fuel tank all the way to its lines and hoses. A raucous engine note is provided by aluminized, true-dual pipes that breathe through dual-chamber Flowmaster mufflers. And all this stellar hardware and expert craftsmanship adds up to one awesome, road ready classic that'll provide years of carefree cruising! Installed by the pros at King's Auto Upholstery in Roanoke, Virginia, this 210's Pearl White cockpit presents the kind of quality craftsmanship that separates parade cars from Power Tour cars. The power front bucket and rear bench seats, which cost right at $15K, are covered in soft hides that display no significant wear. In front of those seats, a painted and leather-topped dash is detailed with polished trim, Classic Instruments gauges and hardware for a modern Vintage Air climate system. Below that dash, high quality carpet anchors a chrome Hurst shifter, a remote controlled JVC CD player and small power window switches between billet foot pedals and color-keyed floor mats. At the sides of that console, custom door panels look great between painted frames, classy billet handles and traditionally sculpted armrests. Above those panels, a custom headliner frames a fully functional dome light. In front of the driver, a polished and half-wrapped steering wheel spins around a polished, tilting column. And behind the passengers, a custom package tray hangs two small speakers above a custom upholstered trunk. Fresh out of its professional restoration, this Chevy won a pile of national awards.
