1955 Chevrolet Bel Air 4 Door Sedan Great Project

1955 Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 Additional Info:

This sale is for a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air 4 Door Sedan. It is a work in progress and would be a good car to finish up or a treasure trove of parts. Years ago it was somebody's restoration project taken to a body shop, some work started and then was put on hold. In the mean time either some parts were taken or misplaced and a friend of mine ended up with the remains. We purchased the car a couple of years back and after looking it over closely decided it should be put back together and make a driver out of it. We had to source out for many of the missing parts, some new and some used and got it to this point. Still needs some things but if your handy would make a good project to finish up. The body for the most part is very solid. Did have a couple of front floor pans put in and were installed correctly, Rest of the floor pan looks to be original and solid. Most of the braces are decent. Frame is solid. Looks like a rear shock mount brace was added. Looks like a lot of front suspension parts replaced, new shocks, brakes and hardware, dual exhaust, etc. Brakes were down but we added fluid and got them to stop the car as long as you push hard. We replaced a lot of the glass but will need new gaskets. Front windshield was missing and the one we purchased turned out to be for a 2 door hardtop convertible. so we just taped it into place to keep the weather out. im sure it can be swapped for a sedan windshield easy enough. Put most of the interior back in the car. The motor is a 1959 283 V-8 but has stuck from sitting. We pulled it apart and it is quite clean but one piston has corrosion. Im sure if you soak it you could free it up or put in your own mill. Does need a fuel tank and fuel door. it would be easier if you call for more information rather than write a novel out. Can do a little better on price if you dont take the wheels and tires. We can supply rollers. We have a current Maine registration and all proper dealer transfer paperwork should you need a title in your state. We require $500 Non refundable deposit at close of sale and balance due 3 days after sales end. If you need more info give us a call at 1-207-432-2862.
