1958 Chevrolet Bel Air

When it comes to classic cars, the Tri-Five Chevys tend to hog the spotlight in the world of General Motors. However, if you dont always want what everyone else wants and prefer a car that will stand out in a car show, then this 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air is the car youve been waiting for. Originally outfitted with a two-tone Tropic Turquoise and Arctic White exterior, this car has had a complete shift in personality thanks to its full, beautiful black repaint that more easily shows off its chrome accents and streamlined form. Inside, the custom bright red interior is the perfect contrast for the subtle exterior. The front and rear bench seats and door panels all retain a two-tone motif, but with a nice mix of black and red to add even more character to this 58 Chevy. It has a radio delete to keep the dash from looking too busy, but it has functional heat to accompany its factory gauge setup. A two-spoke, dual-rim wheel sits before a traditional column shifter, while the analog dashboard clock and Bel Air badging remain just inside your peripheral vision to remind you that no matter what time it is, it is always a good time to be driving a Bel Air. Under the hood, we find a clean engine bay highlighted by a classic 283 cubic-inch painted orange (in proper old-school form), while the gold power brake booster hints that driving this car will be more fun than work. A chrome air cleaner hides an upgraded single four-barrel Edelbrock carburetor, while a true dual exhaust that uses glasspack-style mufflers gives this Bel Air the throwback sound of a 1950s small block. HIGHLIGHTS: Single Year Design Full Black Repaint 283 CID V8 Edelbrock 4BBL Carb Dual Exhaust TH350 Three Speed Auto Power Steering Power Brakes American Racing Wheels Z-Rated Dayton Tires Custom Red/Black Interior This 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air rides on a relatively stock suspension with springs, shocks, and sway bar up front, while a solid axle, shocks, and coils are used out back. But, this car gets a set of polished 17-inch American Racing Torq Thrust II wheels shod in 255/45ZR-17 Dayton tires to give it much better handling and control versus those old bias ply radials and more muscle car attitude. Power steering controls those front tires, so parking never has to be an impromptu arm workout, even in the tightest of spots. If youve been looking for a classic car that isnt going to be found at every car show, then this 1958 Chevy Bel Air is it. This one-year-wonder has all the 1950s charm you could want and is scarce enough to stand out in a crowd anywhere it goes. Call today!
