Vehicle Detail

This is as close to a brand new 1955 Chevy as you can get. I have been asked by a friend, who is battling cancer, to sell this beautiful car that he has spent $60K (have receipts) and the last 5 years restoring. He has only logged 1300 miles on the odometer of the electronic dash. Every nut, bolt, and washer on this car has been replaced...this very nice car was completely dis-assembled, stripped, and any panel with any kind of issues was replaced and completely jig welded and finished on a rotisserie by a certified welder! The body is better now than it was when it came from the factory. The same goes for the frame...it was solid from the start, but was blasted, checked for straightness, and painted. Then all new suspension, (CCP power) steering, and brakes were added. The differential was checked, blasted, cleaned and painted. The pictures show the all new interior, it is absolutely beautiful! The car has Vintage A/C and a nice stereo CD player with 4 speakers...2 in parcel shelf and 2 in kick panels. The engine is a smooth running professionally rebuilt 350 small block with coated headers, edelbrock carb and valve covers and a high dollar aluminum radiator. The original frame mounted bell housing holds an 11" clutch and 010 Muncie 4 speed with Hurst shifter. I have drove this car, and with its new tilt steering column, it's a pleasure to drive! It has polished 5 spoke aluminum wheels with B.F. Goodrich radials. The finish is PPG Base coat clear coat, and all trim and emblems are either new or in perfect condition. There is way too many items on this car to try to list here so please study the pictures and if you have questions contact Troy @ 563-503-9281. We will be happy to assist the new owner with arrangements for pick-up or shipping, and welcome overseas buyers! The cas has to be sold AS-IS, but be assured it is a work of art and will not disappoint anyone anywhere, so if you are looking for a Tri-five Chevy, this could be your next car! Illinois retail buyers will be subject to Tax, title and license.
