1953 Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 Belair Additional Info:
The car was driven for 80,000 miles and then parked in a barn since the early 1970's It is now kept in my garage. The car has absolutely NO RUST in floors, rockers etc. All original paint, interior, etc. Car is almost 100% factory complete. The only thing missing is one headlamp bezel and the hubcaps are not period correct. Both are readily available. The only rust you will find is totally visible in last picture of right rear 1/4 panel and is only on the surface. Every knob, switch etc. is still in its place. It even has the factory radio and tissue box holder in dash. The seats are hardly warn (only 80k miles) and foam is still good. This car would be very easy to restore back to original shape. The engine and electrical systems are unmolested and it has all original parts including oil bath air cleaner. The car is a Belair and has a factory automatic powergluide transmission and the esteemed Blue Flame engine. The engine cranks but obviously does not run as it has been sitting since the 1970's. Someone could easily restore this car into a Barret Jackson show piece. Best part? I have a totally clear Texas title in hand. It's pretty much a one owner car and comes with a cool story.Note. Car is for sale locally and may be removed at any time unless reserve price is met.
