1955 Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 Bel Air Additional Info:

1955 Bel Air 2-Door Sedan blue/white 396 big block (402) Muncie 4-speed. This car sat in an Austin, Texas junkyard for many years - and it looks like it. It is full of bullet holes, dents, rust, broken glass. The quarters were cut in the 1970's not to be a race car but rather to be a field car with dual rear wheels. It was always a 6-cylinder 3-speed car until it became mine. It was rescued to be used as a parts car but I felt sorry for it and fellin love with it (I'm prone to doing that) and built it.All 4 floor pans have been replaced/welded in.
