1955 Chevrolet Tri-5

This 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad was acquired by the seller in 2013 and modified in 2015 with a 350ci V8 equipped with an Edelbrock intake manifold, a Holley carburetor, chrome accessories, and tubular headers. The engine is linked with a four-speed 700R4 automatic transmission and a 9″ rear axle with a limited-slip differential. The car is finished in red and white and rides on 17″ Torq Thrust wheels over power four-wheel disc brakes. Further details include an egg-crate grille, a hood ornament, and sliding side windows, while the cabin is outfitted with replacement red and white vinyl upholstery, air conditioning, a cassette stereo, a CD changer, and power windows. This modified Nomad is now offered with a clean California title in the seller’s name. The car is finished in red and with a white roof and features a hood ornament, an egg-crate grille, chrome bumpers, hooded headlights, sliding rear windows, and polished rocker panel trim. Corrosion is present on the driver’s door. Chrome 17″ American Racing Torq Thrust wheels are mounted with staggered-width Nitto tires that were mounted in 2021, according to the seller. Braking is provided by power-assisted drilled/slotted discs at each corner.  The front and rear bench seats are fitted with replacement white and red waffle-pattern vinyl covers, and matching upholstery is found on the doors and rear panels. Appointments include bowtie-patterned dashboard trim, a cassette receiver, a Kenwood CD changer, air conditioning, and power windows. The three-spoke steering wheel features a chrome horn ring and sits ahead of a replacement gauge cluster. The five-digit odometer shows 550 miles, and the total mileage is unknown. The 350ci V8 was installed in 2015, according to the seller, and it is equipped with a Holley carburetor, an Edelbrock intake manifold, an electric fan, and an Optima battery. Various accessories are finished in chrome, and tubular headers feed a dual exhaust system with Flowmaster-style mufflers. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission and a 9″ rear axle with a limited-slip differential and 3.50:1 gears.
