Beautiful two-tone on the outsideand#44; a custom A/C interiorand#44; and a powerful small block under the hood – this 1955 Chevrolet 210 Del Ray takes an iconic classic and fills it with everything you want in a turnkey ready package. This is the first year for the iconic shoebox Chevysand#44; so its important to get all the details right. Thats why this Del Ray Club Coupe has a great two-tone separated by the proper trim lines. Of courseand#44; you could never get this kind of luster and shine in 55and#44; and so what is grabbing your attention now is a full professional respray that takes advantage of vivid modern clearcoats. But it takes more than just great paint to be a cut-above classic. All the brightwork looks like it has been expertly maintained to make sure that the bumpers shine like mirrorsand#44; and the panels line up so that the side trim continues uninterrupted. But the longer you look at this oneand#44; the more you realize its much more than just a great-looking vintage coupe. It has aggressive touches like the large dual exhaust tips and 15-inch ARE wheels that hint at the enhancements found throughout the car. The moment you open the doorand#44; you begin to understand that the money invested in this Chevy was not just about restoring itand#44; but also improving it along the wayand#44; too. Those button-top cloth seats offer a sofa-like comfort to you and up to five passengers. When you slip behind the factory wheel and gaze at the bright dashand#44; this feels like a cool time capsule. But then you see the full Dakota Digital gauge packageand#44; and you realize this is far from stock. Upgrades like the Ididit steering columnand#44; AM/FM stereo w/CD changerand#44; and ice-cold modern R134a air conditioning are the kind of investments youd want to do yourselfand#44; so you love to see them already expertly installed. Part of what makes this coupe a legend is that 1955 was the first production year for the small block V8. Thats must be why there has been so much invested in giving the engine bay a show-worthy shine. The only optional eight-cylinder in this inaugural year was the 265 cubic-inch motorand#44; and so this keeps the original small block spiritand#44; but has a huge upgrade. Its a 350 ZZ4 crate motor with all the right shiny components to make you proud to take it to car shows. But more than just displacementand#44; it has been performance-built with a Demon four-barrel carburetorand#44; MSD Ignitionand#44; and long tube headers. That means this cool classic is putting out 330+ hp and the rumble of the dual exhaust lets everyone know youve got some serious power. But more than just looking great and going fastand#44; this is an all-around thoughtful build. You see it in everything like the tidy beltsand#44; wiresand#44; and hoses. In factand#44; theres less than 2and#44;300 miles on the whole build. It has an aluminum radiator w/electric fan so the car can stay cool even when youre in traffic with the a/c running. Add in features like the three-speed automatic transmissionand#44; power steeringand#44; and front disc brakesand#44; and you soon realize this iconic Chevy is a great everyday choice. This 55 shoebox Chevy is the classic you would build if you had the time. But instead you get to skip right to the fun part and this cool coupe can have you cruising this weekend... but only if you call today! |
