1954 BEL-AIR "SWEET RIDE"

Description for Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 1954

THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL 1954 CHEVY BE LAIR. THAT WAS A FRAME OFF ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO. THE CAR DRIVES BEAUTIFUL DOWN THE ROAD AT 65 MPH. WITH NO ISSUES. BRAKES NICE AND STRAIGHT. FIRES RIGHT UP AND PURRS LIKE A KITTEN. CAR IS AUTOMATIC WITH A 2 SPEED POWER GLIDE THAT I JUST HAD REBUILT APPROXIMATELY 1 MONTH AGO ($1600 DELTA TRANSMISSION ANTIOCH) HOW MANY CARS DO YOU FIND THAT PEOPLE REBUILD. AND THEY WONT FIX THE HEATER CORE OR PARKING BRAKE. HEATER CORE HAS A 3 SPEED FAN AND GETS NICE AND TOASTY. THE BUILT IN LIGHT FOR THE FAN SWITCH EVEN WORKS. S WELL AS THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER. PARKING BRAKE WILL HOLD ON THE STEEPEST HILL. AND SHOULD YOU START CRYING. BECAUSE THE CAR IS SO COOL. HAS THE CHROME PULL OUT TISSUE DISPENSER UNDER THE DASH. HE ONLY ISSUES WITH THE CAR. WHICH ARE REALLY NOT ISSUES. IS THE ORIGINAL VOLT GAUGE DOES NOT WORK. AS A SLIGHT CRACK UPPER LEFT HAND DRIVER SIDE WINDOW. HEADLINER IS NEW. BUT WHOEVER INSTALLED COULD HAVE DONE A BETTER JOB. STILL SHOWS VERY NICE. IPER MOTOR DOES NOT COME ON. POT LIGHT IS NOW WORKING. WHEN THE CAR WAS PUT BACK TOGETHER. THEY DID NOT ALIGN THE HOOD PERFECTLY. HOOD OPENS AND CLOSES FINE. THE LIGHT UNDER THE HOOD EVEN WORKS. I THINK IF YOU ADJUST THE HOOD SPRINGS YOU CAN ALIGN MUCH BETTER. DID NOT WANT TO ATTEMPT. FEAR OF MAKING IT WORSE. HE OTHER ISSUE WOULD BE THE PASSENGER DOOR ROD LOCKING MECHANISM. S EITHER MISSING OR INSIDE THE DOOR. DOES NOT AFFECT THE DOOR OPENING OR CLOSING. IT JUST WONT LOCK. THE CAR WAS SLIGHTLY LOWERED TO GIVE IT A BETTER STANCE. I WAS TOLD ONE COIL WAS CUT ON THE FRONT SPRINGS. AND LOOKS LIKE THE REAR LEAFS WERE DE-ARCHED. WITH 3" LOWERING BLOCKS. YOU CAN DRIVE THIS CAR ANYWHERE. OU WILL NOT FIND ANOTHER WITH A CUSTOM CONTINENTAL KIT BUILT INTO THE TRUNK. ALSO HAS THE CUSTOM GRILL WITH ADDED TEETH. REDONE INTERIOR. CUSTOM FENDER SKIRT TRIM. YOU WONT FIND ON ANOTHER 54'. USTOM REMOVABLE SEAT CONSOLE. UST ABOUT EVERYTHING ON THIS CAR IS EITHER NEW OR REBUILT. EVEN HAS THE ORIGINAL EYE-TRONIC. ALL PARTS ARE THERE. SOMEBODY WHO LIKES TO TINKER CAN PROBABLY MAKE IT WORK. I GOT THE CAR IN A TRADE. AND DECIDED ITS TO COOL TO CHANGE AND NOT MY STYLE. I WOULD WANT TO BAG. ROP IN A V8. CHANGE THE WHEELS. AND THAT WOULD TAKE AWAY FROM THE TRUE CLASSIC LOOK. THE PAINT IS NOT NEW BUT BEAUTIFUL AND SHINES REALLY NICE. THERE IS NO RUST ON THE CAR THAT I CAN FIND. THE WHITE TOP AND VISOR HAVE A HINT OF GOLD PEARL THAT SHINES VERY NICE. I WAS TOLD THE STRAIGHT 6 CYLINDER WAS REBUILT LAST YEAR. AND RUNS PERFECT. ALSO HAS AFTERMARKET AUXILIARY FAN. WHICH I HAVE NOT HAD TO USE. BUT WORKS BY MEANS OF A TOGGLE SWITCH. OES HAVE AN AFTERMARKET STEREO MOUNTED IN THE GLOVE. BOX . LOVE BOX LIGHT EVEN WORKS. WITH 6X9 UNDER THE REAR SHELF. CAR WAS TREATED WITH POR15 TO ELIMINATE RUST FROM FORMING. FLY IN AND DRIVE CAR HOME. LOOKING FOR CASH. OR WILL CONSIDER IMPALA SS TRADES OF A HIGHER VALUE. NO BIKES BEEN THERE DONE THAT. ALMOST KILLED MYSELF !/POSSIBLE TRADE + CASH ?. (925)756-2449. CAR IS LOCATED IN ANTIOCH CALIF. 94531. thanks!. ERE IS WHAT WAS DONE TO THE CAR IN MARCH OF 2014.
