Details

This beautiful custom 1957 Bel Air convertible had a high-end, professional, two-year restoration on a powder-coated Art Morrison GT sport chassis that features chrome front control arms and JRI coilover shocks that are fully adjustable for ride height. The stopping power is handled by a set of Wilwood brakes with 4-piston calipers up front and 4-piston calipers out back. This laser-straight Resto-Mod has smoothed rocker panels, a custom-built engine bay, excellent body panel fitment and is finished in PPG Graphite Gray Metallic. All stainless and chrome has been refurbished. The GM Performance Gen V 460hp 6.2-liter LT1 direct-injected engine is dressed with a Drive Junky front runner and backed by a 4L75E 4-speed automatic transmission connected to a Strange Engineering third member with 3:73 gears. The exhaust system is ceramic coated with stainless-steel MagnaFlow mufflers with stainless tips tucked in the bumper. This custom Bel Air rolls on custom-built 20x10' and 19x7' Raceline billet wheels wrapped in Nitto Motive high-performance radial tires. The one-off interior is wrapped in genuine red leather and features Dakota Digital VHX gauges, Vintage Air, power windows, power Haartz cloth top, Lokar shifter and a Kenwood sound system. This classy Resto-Mod was built with attention to detail and with no expense spared.
