Cruisin Classics is excited to present to you this classic 1955 Chevrolet 210 Post car. This Tri-Five is a spectacular restoration that is turn-key ready to hit the road and start collecting smiles & making memories. This Chevy rolled off the assembly line of the Norwood plant wearing Cashmere Blue and India Ivory paint and it comes to us today with a similar look. The front end and lower body is dressed in a light blue that looks like you could dive right into it and the upper quarters, decklid, and top are done in white. It is a stunning paint job that borders on show quality and the color combination is fantastic. Not only was the body of the car treated to new paint, the undercarriage is coated in the same glossy blue and it is as clean as a pin. This is the kind of car that deserves a mirror under it at a car show so that everyone can appreciate the effort and money spent on the underside. Accenting the slick paint is a plethora of mirror-finish chrome trim that the Bel Air series is known for. The bulbous hood is home to a gleaming airplane ornament and a colorful Chevy crest that's flanked by round headlights in bright bezels at the front of the fenders. Below is a distinct, iconic chrome eggcrate grille inspired by European sports cars and Ferrari styling. Flanking the grille are turn signal lights with bright surrounds and beneath is a wrap-around chrome bumper with guards. As you move around to the side of the car, the two-tone paint and even more chrome come into the spotlight. The wrap-around windshield is framed by thick chrome trim and fronted by bright wiper arms. The windows are all trimmed in brightwork and they have been treated to new felts. The chrome continues with dual side mirrors, door handles, and body side molding. Above the side molding on the rear quarters is Bel Air badging, though the car is a 210 model. This beauty sits on a set of 15"" 5-spoke chrome Crager SS wheels with faux knock-offs all wrapped in newer white-letter Cooper Cobra Radial GT tires (2021). Through the wheels you can see front calipers and rear drums that are painted blue to match the body. At the rear of the car are modest fins that are home to brightly trimmed taillight assemblies. On the trunk lid is the chrome frame of another Chevy crest like the one on the hood, but this one's center is red reflective plastic because it is actually a third brake light. The rear bumper mimics the one up front and peeking out from underneath are a set of polished stainless steel exhaust tips.
Lift the big hood to find a gloss blue engine bay that's sure to make any car enthusiast smile. At the heart is an orange 350 small-block V-8 with chrome ""Chevrolet"" valve covers, an Edelbrock intake manifold, a red & chrome 4-barrel carburetor, and a Billet oval air cleaner. Ahead of the engine is an A/C compressor (that's right, nice cold air!), a chrome alternator, a power steering unit, and an electric puller fan on the radiator. Red plug wires run down the sides of the block and braided hoses with AN fittings have been used for all the high pressure lines. The V-8 is mated up to a Saginaw 4-speed manual transmission that gives the driver total control of the experience. Exhaust flows through headers, new stainless steel pipes, and Magnaflow mufflers before exiting the rear with a rumble that's sure to please. Stopping power comes courtesy of power front discs and rear drums, a newer-looking master cylinder, and new lines.
When you open the drivers door you're greeted by a custom interior that blends modern and classic elements while offering some very desirable creature comforts. The seats, door panels, side panels, package tray, headliner, visors, console armrest, and shift boot are all dressed in the same fabric – a grey tweed with tiny dots of blue, pink, and black woven in – giving the interior a cohesive look. When you open the door, the dome courtesy light pops on and so do lights on the rear of the console. The molded door panels offer controls for power windows, handles, and vent window cranks. All of the windows are surrounded by bright chrome trim. Seating consists of two front buckets and a matching bench in back. The front seats are power-adjustable and quite comfortable with no visible demerits. Splitting the front buckets is a blue and white fiberglass console that stretches all the way from the dash back to the base of the rear seat. The curvaceous console features air vents and swing-out cupholders for both front and rear passengers, an armrest/storage box, a Hurst dog-leg shifter with a white pattern ball, an Alpine AM/FM/CD stereo, and Alpine speakers. The floors are covered with newer-looking tan loop carpet with black carpeted floormats keeping it clean. The driver is treated to a Lecarra 3-spoke black padded leather-wrapped steering wheel that has a great hand-feel. The wheel is affixed to a chrome tilt column. The blue painted dash ahead combines both classic and modern touches. The stamped metal ""bowtie band"" that stretches from side to side on the dash has been upgraded to an attractive billet piece with a single bowtie at the center. The traditional V-shaped gauge cluster is now outfitted with Dakota Digital gauges that offer a speedometer, tachometer, and gauges for fuel, volts, oil, and temp. The digital odometer reads 7,559 miles and we believe that is likely the mileage since restoration. To the right of the column are controls for the HVAC system that cranks out cold A/C and hot heat on demand. Underneath the dash to the drivers right is a kill switch. Ahead of the passenger is a digital clock in the place where an old analog one used to be. Around back you'll find a fully finished trunk done with the same tweed material as the car's interior. Under the carpet on the trunk floor, in the space where the spare tire would go, is the battery and behind the rear panel is an Alpine amplifier for the stereo system.
This '55 Chevy is truly the best of both worlds – all the style and looks of a classic Tri-Five paired with modern conveniences like power steering, power brakes, cold A/C, power seats, power windows, digital gauges, and a great stereo! This is a car that you can comfortably drive anywhere and it's so good looking that it will draw a crowd wherever you go! Don't hesitate, give our friendly staff a call and make this Chevy your own before someone beats you to it!

Here at Cruisin Classics, we understand that you have many options when choosing where you purchase your classic, muscle or collector car and we would like to thank you for considering us.
Cruisin Classics has been buying and selling cars for many years.. The majority were your average daily drivers but our passion has always been in muscle cars and hot rods so in 1996, Cruisin Classics built a 56,000 sq.ft. showroom located in Columbus, OH that they still operate out of today. All of our vehicles are hand-picked and selected to ensure they fit our inventory. This facility is now arguably one of the best-stocked collections for sale in the US housing hundreds of unique automobiles all under one roof. We invite you to our facility! There is something for everybody when you come to visit.
After years of serving as central Ohio's premiere classic car dealer at Cruisin Classics Auto Sales, we saw an unfulfilled need that was not being met for our clients. We loved helping match our clients with the classic and American muscle cars of their dreams. But what about after the purchase? We recognized that our clients needed a trusted resource to continue to care for their classic vehicles. It did not sit well with us that our valued clients and their incredible vehicles were being outsourced to, sometimes several, third-party resources for maintenance and performance needs. We also wanted to help the many people that we had met over the years who already owned classic vehicles which were in need of restoration, upgrades, and maintenance. Too often, we were seeing vehicles with so much potential left sitting in garages under covers because their owners did not know who to turn to for such specialized work. It is our goal to offer our clients a truly comprehensive, seamless, and enjoyable classic car ownership experience, from purchase to maintenance to storage. Thus, Cruisin Classics Performance Center was born. We have cherry-picked the most talented, experienced, and passionate team of technicians to offer our clients a true one-stop-shop solution for any and all of their classic car needs. Our honest business model has lasted almost 25 years to date and Cruisin Classics has a worldwide reputation as one of the best in the business.
Outside of the shop, this business has afforded us the opportunity to be actively involved in our community and fulfill our goal of supporting several local and national organizations that hold a special place in our hearts. We are proud sponsors of the Kiwanis Club of Columbus, the Columbus USO, Honor Flight, Special Olympics, multiple car clubs, and much more.
In conclusion, 100% customer satisfaction is our main goal. Always has been.. always will be. We would like to invite anyone considering one of our vehicles to come to our beautiful facility to inspect the car in person or send somebody on your behalf.

In addition, our Buyers Resource section offers advice and vendor recommendations to guide you through the buying process, from classic car financing & insurance to collector vehicle shipping & restoration.
