Beautiful 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible completely redone as a frame-off project. The Chevy restoration started in 2003 and was completed in 2005. Receipts for ALL the work performed and new parts are included as well as pictures of the process. Only 4,000 miles have been logged on the Bel Air since its completion.
Here are some of the highlights; New 350 c.i./330 h.p. GM small block Chevy, backed by a new Turbo 350 automatic transmission. New power steering, power brakes (disc front, drum rear), Vintage A/C & heat, and Dakota dash. Every nut, bolt, fuel, and brake line were replaced.
After market continental kit fits and functions perfectly, NO FENDER SKIRTS, even though the brackets are there.
Please note I am selling this car for an estate and all the information was gathered through the receipts, photos, and relatives. Car has NOT been sitting for an extended period and runs well. As of the listing only the tachometer and fuel gauge do not work.

I have been an active eBay seller of cars and other items for more than 15 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period. Approximately 8 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles without them leaving the garage. These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!
