Vehicle Detail

1955 Chevy 210 2 Door Sedan Rust free car originally from California that spent most of its life in Arizona. 350 Chevy dual quads, 700R4 Overdrive transmission, 12 bolt 3.55 rearend, 4 wheel power disc brakes Drivetrain:⦁350 Engine 010 block⦁Edelbrock Performer RPM Heads with Scorpion 1.55 ratio roller rockers⦁Edelbrock Performer RPM Air Gap Dual Quad Manifold⦁Dual Edelbrock 500 Thunder AVS carburetors (with electric choke)⦁New Electronic ignition with billet distributor, 8mm wires and vertical mounted spark plug wire holders⦁Ceramic coated headers⦁March serpentine belt system⦁Full custom 2.5" exhaust with Dynomax Super Turbo mufflers and crossover tube⦁Engine runs very strong and does not smoke⦁Custom heavy duty aluminum radiator with shrouded dual electric fans. Fans are on temperature sensor (in block) as well as switched from dash. This setup will keep the car at 180 degrees even during the hottest days.⦁700R4 Transmission w/shift kit and trans cooler⦁2200 RPM Stall⦁Lokar Shifter⦁Line Lok/Roll Control⦁Rare 3.55 geared 12 bolt Eaton posi rearend from 1966 Chevy Nova. Has been completely rebuilt with new clutches, springs, bearings, axles, and disc brakes. Have close to $3000 just in the rearend. This rearend is an inch narrower than the factory 1955 rearend, which allows for the wider rear tires. Suspension:⦁4-wheel power disc brakes. Car stops extremely well.⦁Caltrac traction bars⦁New rear shocks with shock relocation bar (so shocks no longer need to bolt to trunk floor).⦁Jim Meyer Racing complete adjustable coil over front end with tubular A-arms and power rack and pinion steering.⦁17" Torque Thrust II wheels all the way around. 6" in front, 8" in back. Rear tires are 275 M&H drag radials. The 275's fill out the wheel wells and look great.⦁Car has been converted to side engine mounts and rear crossmember for the transmission. Interior:⦁Ididit Chrome Tilt steering column with Carrera leather wrapped billet steering wheel⦁Complete Painless wiring harness⦁Interior is presentable but is starting to show its age. Carpet is good, the front seat passenger side is starting to tear down a seam (couple of inches); I have sewed it up best I could. Again, very usable as it is.⦁Clock in dash does not work. Speedometer does not work (the 700R4 has an electronic speedo gear and I have not taken the time to replace it with a mechanical gear).⦁All lights and windshield wipers function as they should. There is no heater in the car.⦁Aftermarket stereo is hidden in the glove box. Stereo has a remote and USB outlet (along with MP3). Dual voice speaker in the front speaker outlet and two 6x9's in the rear deck. Sounds great. Body/Paint:⦁Front and rear bumpers are new. The quarter and door chrome/stainless are in excellent condition. The stainless around the windows is in good shape, but has a couple spots where it is losing its luster. The grill is in great shape. All glass is good with no cracks. The back window has scratches on it, but can only notice if you look right at it up close. All windows roll up and down as they should. All windows have new window felts and the vent windows have new rubber, so the car seals up nice and tight. The doors close solid.⦁The paint is driver quality. It looks great and has a nice shine to it, but up close the paint is getting thin and has several scratches/scrapes which have been filled in with touch up. I am not a body/paint person, but the body looks straight to me. I can run a quality magnet around the entire car and it sticks everywhere. Some of the places where there are body seams have normal cracking (front A pillar and below the rear tail lights). The driver front apron (small piece between front fender and below bumper) has a small crinkle in it. Not noticable unless you look right at it.⦁The trunk and floor pans have been professionaly replaced and are very solid. There is no rust on the car that I can see other than minor surface rust which shows up next to some of the chrome window trim and in some places on the body where the paint has been scraped. Summary:In general, this is an awesome driving 1955 Chevy. It drives, stops, and handles very well. With the overdrive transmission, it will cruise down the freeway without issue. Although the paint is not perfect, it still shines up great and looks fabulous driving/cruising/and even showing. I encourage a personal viewing where possible. I've tried to give an honest evaluation of the car. As I've said above, mechanically, this car is very sound and reliable. If you want a trailer queen car with perfect paint and interior, this isn't it; however, if you want a solid, rust free 1955 Chevy which is a great driver/cruiser - this should be a contender. Buyer is responsible for all shipping arrangements and fees, however I will certainly help from my end. $500 immediate down payment using PayPal with remainder to be provided either in person (cash) or a bank wire transfer. Title or vehicle will not be released until full amount has been paid.
