The Chevy 150 represented the economy or budget car from the Bowtie, between 1953 and 1957. This was a car for the everyman, a relatively stylish, frugal, and easy-to-maintain automobile. Buyers could pick from a sedan, coupe, or wagon. Two generations were made, with the second generation debuting V8 power for the nameplate. This particular 1955 Chevrolet 150 Restomod is a second-generation car, but as the name gleans, it’s also a restomod. So, you can look forward to some modern additions, refreshed power, and something unique. Read on to discover what it offers.
This 1955 Chevrolet 150 Restomod showcases the design of the 150 in an off-white paint job, but it rolls on a set of modern five-spoke polished aluminum wheels. The right set of wheels can really uplift the look of a classic car, and we’ve got to say, these wheels do the job perfectly. They also host meatier tires, particularly at the rear, the purpose of which will become apparent shortly. But for now, let’s admire the chrome detailing, center-exit dual exhaust system, and wrap-around windshield of this beautiful automobile. There’s also a custom vented hood, once again a necessity given what lurks beneath. Now, let’s step aboard the custom interior, with its color-matched trim and custom console. Here, we find seating for up to four adults in four individual seats, with cup holders available for rear passengers too, thanks to the custom console. Then, the driver faces a set of Dolphin white-faced gauges, and there’s also a discretely mounted aftermarket audio system. You can see some of this behind a panel within the trunk, showing that great effort has been taken to preserve the classic outlook of this car wherever possible.
This 1955 Chevrolet 150 Restomod enjoys a 400ci V8 beneath the hood, powering the rear wheels through a 700R4 automatic gearbox with overdrive, and a 3.08:1 rear axle. There’s a 4-barrel carburetor for enhanced performance, while power disc brakes provide enhanced stopping power. So, you can cruise around all day in this beauty, turning heads and gathering smiles. Then, when it’s time to leave, you can awaken the V8 and lay some rubber in pure hotrod style.

Chances are, you haven’t heard much about the Chevrolet 150, and that’s because it was the automaker’s economy model from 1953 to 1957. Aimed primarily at fleet buyers, the 150 saw assembly in multiple plants across the USA and Ontario, Canada. A straightforward range of sedan, coupe, or wagon was offered, and by 1957, the Delray took over. As something primarily workmanlike, you can imagine that a Chevrolet 150 isn't all that common, which makes this 1957 Chevrolet 150 all the more interesting to an enthusiast. With just 74,750 miles on the clock, it’s not a tired high-miler either.
With its sleek styling and relatively modern features, the C5 or fifth-generation Corvette is a great place to start your Corvette journey. It’s a definite future classic, but isn’t too old that you’ve got to baby it. Produced between 1997 and 2005, the C5 also marked the last generation to have the pop-up headlamps. That, plus many other reasons, mean that this 2000 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a great contender for that extra spot in your car collection. This reportedly all-original car has done 32,000 miles, which is lighter than average. So, it’s in great condition as a result.
The Chevy Corvette is arguably the most well-known sports car in America. Now on its eighth iteration, the ‘Vette has morphed into a mid-engined supercar fighter. But let’s go down Corvette avenue for about three and a bit decades. Let’s step back into 1993, when the Corvette was celebrating its 40th Anniversary. Yes, The Corvette is also one of America’s longest-running automotive nameplates. Hence, in 1993, when the fourth-generation or C4 Corvette was in production, Chevy created the 40th Anniversary Corvette. Just 6,749 examples were sold, and here’s one for you to consider. This 1993 Chevrolet Corvette 40th Anniversary Edition may have traveled 115,000 miles in its lifetime, but it’s still a spry thing to behold.
American performance cars always seem to be underrated compared to their European counterparts. This 2013 Chevrolet Corvette 1LT with just under 50,000 miles on the odometer, puts all that mockery to sleep. It emphasizes exactly what American performance cars have done so well for so many years (70 years in the case of the Corvette): rear-wheel drive, manual transmission, and an absolutely massive V8 up front. They have stuck to that formula ever since and have made them better and better with each iteration.
