BODY OVERVIEW:
This Bel Air was restored for a private, North Carolina collector in the early 1990s. It was driven very infrequently post-restoration, and still presents almost as a fresh restoration. As a result, everything about it is stunning! This was no low-budget, backyard restoration. This is a meticulously restored car that presents in nearly correct condition for 1957, down to the sticker on the air cleaner, and more. The body is straight, the trim looks great, and it has all the hallmarks of what today would be a 6-figure restoration. This Bel Air is a beauty! Buyers should note that the door glass doesn’t quite align with the convertible top, and the passenger side quarter glass frame is split.
PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW:
This Bel Air was fully repainted during the restoration, and has maintained its original color of Colonial Cream, which is really kind of a yellow color. Yellow colors aren’t for everyone, but regardless the painter sure knew what they were doing with this one. It looks like glass, and shines like a diamond! Imperfections are at a truly extreme minimum, especially considering the age of the restoration. This car looks more like it was painted last year rather than last century!
INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW:
The interior is a similar yellow, which looks great with the matching exterior color. Much like the exterior, wear and imperfections are at a minimum as this car was built to display and be driven sparingly. All interior soft materials look and show fantastically, and just like the exterior this car presents like a much more recent restoration than it is. There are no modifications,
