This is a genuine Bel Air Only 305 mi since the show quality custom build. I'm very impressed with the entire car. Fit, finish and function is outstanding.
EXTERIOR: Just let go of the doors and they click shut! The body is absolutely straight, the gaps are precise. No rust or damage. Painted original signature Gypsy Red-Shoreline Beige colors. It has a very smooth, high gloss finish. You would have to look really close to find a flaw. All new glass with a real soft tint. All the window seals and weather strips were replaced. The stainless moldings are excellent, chrome is shiny. It's sitting pretty on a set of chrome 15 inch American Racing wheels, much fatter in back. Upgraded headlights, bowtie lenses.
INTERIOR: Wow it's a knockout! Really, I'm sitting inside the car right now and I want to use the word perfect. In front of me is a sparkling pristine dash area, the metal is painted as smooth as glass. All the chrome knobs, heater controls and trim are sparkling. It has a new Classic Industries gauge. Reproduction steering wheel but a smaller diameter and it's on a chromed tilt column with polished levers. It is deluxe Bel Air convertible upholstery. The upholstery, seats, door panels, headliner and visors are pristine. Not even a wrinkle. Tight weave premium carpet with matching mats. Everything from the vents and pedals to the high beam switch and the mirror look new. Everything is working too. Added seat belts in the front.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The motor sounds like firecrackers! It's a 283 stroker with double hump heads, a 327 crankshaft, 350 hp Corvette camshaft and a new 600 Edelbrock carb on top. The front of the motor is decked out with modern equipment: it has a serpentine belt, billet pulleys and bracket and 605 power steering. It has a Street Fire ignition and Doug's headers. It runs cool with an aluminum water pump, giant aluminum radiator with dual electric fans, a polished overflow bottle, hard polished radiator hoses with shrink clamps. The polished aluminum core support, radiator and condenser are a matched set. It features power brakes and upgraded electric wipers. It has a Delco battery topper with a master disconnect switch. The engine bay is very tidy and painted real nice.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Oh yeah, the trunk compartment's awesome too! Under the trunk lid and the jamb are painted slick. Inside is boxed and custom upholstered, the same premium weave carpet on the floor.
UNDERSIDE: The stance is just right thanks to drop spindles and Super Slide lowering springs front and back. The front end looks like it was completely rebuilt including an upgraded sway bar back. In back it has new springs, bushings hardware and reproduction spiral shocks. The brake system has been redone and upgraded with disc in front. E-brake is hooked up. Great sounding dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers. The fuel system was replaced including the tank. Looking up at the motor it looks brand new, has a chrome high torque starter and new flywheel cover. Upgraded with a 700R4 overdrive automatic with a chrome pan. Custom drive shaft. Rebuilt rear end with stronger axles and a 3.23 posi. The floors look to be really solid.
SERVICE: We inspected the car and it passed with flying colors. All we had to do was install a new lock cylinder on the passenger door and replace some interior bulbs. The reverse lights do not work.
You will not be disappointed with this one. The look, the sound, and the performance are exceptional. Beautiful everywhere you look!
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.
