Chevrolet Bel Air Tri Power 348 V8 1952

General description : 1952 Chevrolet Bel Air The tri five BelAirs may get a lot of press but arguably the BelAir with the most classic style has to go to the 1952.  These cars just had that 50's look.  Rounded fenders, lots of chrome, and that classic styling that makes you feel nostalgic.  This 1952 Chevrolet BelAir is absolutely beautiful in and out.  The car was just completely restored and has only racked up 900 miles since completion.  The car was not restored to original in the typical sense of the phrase but was restored with vintage hot rodding in mind.   It is truly amazing how well this car shines and one look at the Bittersweet/White two tone paint in person and you will think it was just repainted yesterday.  All of the original chrome and stainless work is in place and in like new condition.  With the restoration all new side glass was installed as well as a 1950 Oldsmobile 1 piece windshield.  LED taillights were installed in the rear and all of the lenses are in good shape.  The car has a perfect stance and the side profile is something you just can't beat.  The new chrome wheels tuck just the right amount under the rear fenders to give it a nice look while still showing off those new Diamondback radial wide whitewall tires.  As mentioned before the car wasn't put back in its stock original state but it wasn't just some thrown together resto mod either.  If that was the case you would find a boring 350 under the hood instead of the brand new professionally rebuilt tri power 348 Chevrolet V8. It is equipped with MSD ignition and a 6A box. This motor runs extremely well and sounds as good as it looks with the completely new exhaust by Kenny's.  Pop the hood and you will find the engine compartment is like a work of art.  The firewall has been recessed and completely smoothed out to allow plenty of clearance for both the motor and new copper 4 row radiator with electric fan and shroud. The valve covers, tri-power intake manifold, altenator, etc have been powdercoated a metallic silver that not only looks great, but will provide for easier cleraning in the future. Continuing down the drivetrain you will find a new Turbo 375 automatic transmission, new drive shaft, and new narrowed 9 inch Ford rear end with 28 spline Strange axles. If you are not familiar with the 375 transmission, basically it is a Turbo 400 with a Turbo 350 tailshaft.  New disc brakes were added up front with completely rebuilt drums in the rear.  The car actually comes with a new 7 inch diameter brake booster with dual master cylinder should you want some extra stopping power.  The car does fine as is though.  A Heidts Mustang II Independent front suspension was added to the car and comes complete with a power rack and pinion steering system.    The interior is just as beautifully done as the rest and provides the perfect combination of vintage and modern styling.  The dash is painted the same as the body but was custom made from a 1955 Chevrolet dash.  A new wiring harness was installed throughout so all of the electrical from the headlights to the new AM/FM/MP3 stereo is working properly.  Classic Instruments white faced gauges sit in front of the driver and sit nicely in the stock style 55 dash.  An Ididit steering column was added and is topped off by a 1958 Impala style steering wheel.  All of the upholstery work is new from the seats to the carpets and prior to being completed Dynamat was installed throughout.  Literally, there are so many new components associated with this build that I am confident we have overlooked many of them.  But you should certainly have a sense of the extent and quality of the work done.  The car needs nothing but a new loving owner. Check this car out in person and there is no way you will want to go home without it.  The fit and finish is second to none. This is one classic you don't want to miss out on at only $39,200.00!
