At least it's a chevy!
I just had to post these pics. This is by far the finest custom car I have ever owned. Drove it home to Houston from Dallas last Saturday and I am on cloud nine. 383 Stroker and Air Ride suspension!

Re: At least it's a chevy!
Very nice! What year? I'm afraid I don't know much about the Belair except the mid to late 50's.

Re: At least it's a chevy!
That is a sweet ride.It's a good thing,too.I've been to a couple of shows in Spring when I lived in Houston.That looks to be a sweet ride for the rest of the world but just a cut above average for Spring.Congrats.

Re: At least it's a chevy!
Beautiful car. Been awhile since I have seen a pic of a nice one that wasn't "hopping".

Re: At least it's a chevy!
Those cars are great and I relly love them. You got a beauty there. Here is one that I fell in love with at a show in Ark City, Kansas last fall. The car has a 2001 Ls-1 motor, 3.73 gears, and a nitrous system set up at 150 Hp shots. It ran great and look so original from the street.

Re: At least it's a chevy!
Very nice, I think Custom Rodder did a feature on that car.

Re: At least it's a chevy!
I had to explain to many friends and family that you don't "bounce" with air bags. This car is a gift from heaven. Custom Rodder featured two Belairs in the last three years and I was determined to own one. I never expected that I would find one in my price range. The three previous owners have pumped a total of 60K into this car.

Re: At least it's a chevy!
A mere fraction of the 50K plus that the three previous owners pumped into it. The seller just bought a high-dollar '56 Chevy.
