1955 Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210

1955 Chevrolet Bel Air Sport Coupe â?" Custom-Built Pro-Touring Driver in Orange White Two-Tone Why This Car Is Special The 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air is one of the most recognized automobiles in American history, and for good reason. When General Motors introduced the all-new 1955 Chevrolet lineup, it was a complete break from everything that came before it. Designer Clare MacKichan led the styling team that created what enthusiasts now call the 'Hot One' â?" a name Chevrolet itself used in period advertising. The 1955 Bel Air brought a lower, wider stance, a wraparound windshield, and two-tone paint combinations that made it look more expensive than its price tag suggested. More importantly, 1955 was the year Chevrolet introduced its small-block V8, the engine that would go on to power American performance cars for decades.
