As one of the most iconic nameplates of the 50s, the Bel Air was designed for clientele that wanted to feel special. The car was meant to stand out, be noticed, and remind everyone on the road that Chevrolet and their Bel Air drivers were a tier above everyone else. With the success of the debut model, the second-gen Bel Air, as featured here, was released in 1955, and along with a complete redesign, the ride itself was significantly improved. GM's "Hot One" was very well received and was the highlight of motor magazines around the world. This 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible Restomod was completed in 2020 while maintaining its numbers and is currently up for sale.
Chevrolet was aware that the second-generation Bel Air had to look the part if it wanted to build on its legacy, and so the designers were asked not to hold back. Chrome was abundant, and even a page out of Ferrari's book was taken to design the front grille. While a chance to witness automotive craftsmanship of such degree is rare, this 55 Restomod allows us to go back in time. The Coral and White two-tone paint job is a tribute to subtle elegance, the reportedly new chrome bumpers and glass parts add in the bling, and the updated Bel Air badges remind us of its significance. The coral theme continues within the interior, this time in the form of plush leather seats envisioned to accommodate worthy occupants. A look across the gleaming chrome dashboard will reveal a new classic radio. There is always the option to drive in comfort via the classic air conditioning unit that will keep you cool when you throw on the new convertible top.
Powering this 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible is its rebuilt original 265ci small block V8 engine along with a rebuilt automatic transmission. The owner also reported that the car has also been fitted with a new radiator, gas tank, and gas filler.

One of the most popular classic cars is the Chevy Bel Air. Introduced in 1950 and named after the stylish Bel Air neighborhood of Los Angeles, the Bel Air was Chevy’s full-size offering until 1981. Today, the Bel Air has proved itself to be a worthy classic, as well as an excellent restomod platform. Take this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Coupe Restomod as a prime example. The car has undergone a full restoration, which was concluded in December 2020. Moreover, it’s got a more potent engine with just 4,000 miles on it, plus some interior and exterior niceties.
Let’s get one thing straight, a Bel Air in beautiful condition is rare to come by. You can develop a bond with this kind of soulful car and it is always a great time when you show up in one of these at a car show. What you see before you is an example of the 1953 Chevrolet Bel Air Sport Coupe. This model year is an important mark for Bel Air as Chevrolet renamed its series, and the Bel Air name was applied to the premium model range. It was given a facelift and was advertised as "Entirely new through and through". This particular Bel Air is a restored car with just 20K miles on the build. The interior is said to be mostly original and is currently available for sale in Florida.
Let’s travel back to 1950s automotive history. Out of the herd of iconic vehicles born during this time, the Chevrolet Bel Air is undeniably a work of art, a rolling Mona Lisa. For the same reason, this stunning car has become a high-dollar collector car. The Bel Air saw a notable second generation during its three decades of manufacturing, which came to be known as the "Tri Fives," alluding to the three years of manufacture that took place in the 1950s. The second generation was born in 1955 and received new, revamped styling epitomizing Chevy's new slogan, "The Hot One." This alluring example of the 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air is up for sale with just 76,000 miles on its odometer.
Chevy’s Impala was the famous Bowtie automaker’s full-size offering for many years. It appeared sporadically between 1957 and 2020 and made it across ten generations. The Impala is named, as you may suspect, after the African antelope of the same name. It quickly won favor with the American auto-loving public due to its diverse array of body styles and, of course, V8 power. Up for sale today is a third-generation 1961 Chevrolet Impala Bubbletop Restomod, which reportedly packs 45,000 original miles. But, it’s received a comprehensive do-over, more power, and some modern comfort features.
The Chevrolet C-10 is often remembered as a half-ton short-bed pickup truck although they came in various body styles. The Fleetside was one of those variations; it has an essentially straight outer design and the truck's rear wheels are situated inside the truck bed beneath the wheel wells on either side of the bed. This fine example of the 1967 Chevrolet C-10 Short Bed Fleetside is an example that reportedly shows just 355 miles on the clock after its thorough restoration. It has exciting performance updates resembling a good old farm truck from the ‘60s. We were also informed that all work receipts are available to assure credibility.
For decades, the Chevrolet Corvette has remained an icon, and this 2008 Corvette hailing from the C6 generation isn’t any different.

The current owner has gone through a plethora of mechanical and performance upgrades to wake up the beast under the hood with all the proper supporting mods. If you’re interested in investing in a tastefully modified Corvette with some extra ponies beneath the hood, then look no further. With only 59,500 miles on the clock, and the current owner reporting that all recalls having been addressed and fixed, this car is a property built to hop in and drive. Reportedly, the current owner has invested about $19,000 in the engine along with various performance and cosmetic upgrades, making this example a dream for anyone looking for an impeccable car that will last. With 500WHP at your control, this C6 is bound to leave a lasting impression.
