The 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air is an iconic car from the 1950s and a classic model in the Chevrolet lineup. It was part of the second generation of Chevrolet's Bel Air series, which spanned from 1955 to 1957.

This 55 Chevy Bel Air has a great distinctive and stylish design. It features a sleek and elegant appearance with chrome accents, prominent body lines and a classic red on red paint scheme.
Sitting in the engine bay is a new GM LSX376-B15 crate engine with a Whipple 2.9 supercharger on top. Exhaust exists by way of long tube headers and dual stainless-steel pipes. Gears are operated via a floor shifter connected to a 4L75 automatic transmission with overdrive. Outback you will find a Ford 9"" rearend.
The LSX376-B15 is durable, and its all-forged rotating assembly supports up to 15 pounds of boost. The engine is topped off with high-flow, LSX-LS3 6-bolt rectangular-port heads to create an affordable foundation for supercharged and turbocharged combinations.
When it comes to handling, this 55 Tri Five can get it done with coilover shocks on all four corners, tubular a-arms along with power rack and pinion steering. Helping to keep this coupe planted to the pavement are new Nitto premium tires, 235/40R18 front & 275/40R20 rear all mounted on Riddler wheels.
The interior of this 55 is a mix of style and comfort with a tasteful dashboard, bucket seats, center console and all wrapped in red leather.
