I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded and you will be given a 1 year membership.

Let us know if you have any questions or feedback. Thanks for watching!
Back in 1972? I was 15 and I found this 1953 2 door Belair on some used car lot. It was OK but not "my" idea of OK. 4 years later on (1975/1976?) It's now got a straight axle, fender well headers, a L-88 taken out of a wrecked vette along with its 400 turbo transmission. I campaigned the crap out of that 53 chevy all over the northwest! I had this "specialist" Dave Dehanick "modify" the heads of the L-88 and added long tubed headers, a lenco 2 speed rear gear. just a bunch of parts that took forever to get all synced up and in smooth running order! I loved that car. I miss that car! Mine was the 210 "post" model. Decent asking price!
Fifty three Chevy the same year I was born, the more you look at this car it is really done right, first off the colors are killer and the wheels just look like they belong there, great motor choice, the interior lacks nothing it’s definitely a winner!!
I was born in 53 also, I think this is the coolest 53 I have seen. I'm not a Corvette fan.
ME TOO
Same here, the year the Corvette took flight.
It's a shame you can't buy it for what it sold for in 1953. Just add several more zeros and your golden.
The nicest ‘53 restomod BelAir I’ve seen 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Nice to see something other than a tri-five.
😎👍
Or another Camero.
What’s a tri five?
I had two of these '53 Bel Airs in the late '60s , the first one was very nice, light green with a dark green top. I've never seen one this nice.
ID BE INTERESTED IN THIS RIDE NICELY DONE GREAT COLORS EXTERIOR / INTERIOR 👍CurtisJordan
NICE, VERY NICE, THE PAINT COMBO IS AWESOME,TINT PERFECT MATCH, THE VETTE ENGINE, IS SIMPLY AWESOME.
“Slip and Slide with PowerGlide”!! Loved driving them and making it kick down into First Gear!
Been awhile since I've heard that phrase!
Absolutely the sharpest 53 I've seen, and remember seeing them daily as a little boy! Back then tho, they were usually green, brown, black or the light turquoise .... DEF nothing like this! I wonder what GM engineers and executives would say if they coukd jump ahead in time and see this one?!! Again, the pics of the undercarriage says it all when it comes to detail and quality of workmanship .... the even spacing of exhaust etc. Absolutely a fantastic restoration and build. And Mr Grams says it well, that this car is a bargain at this price. Great job everybody!
In the fifties my step father had the turquoise. It was sharp
@@gieb6428 I think one of the most popular cars and colors of that year. Even as a kid, I loved the 53 model, and then the 54. I remember in 54, a 'rich farmer down the road had a son (spoiled rich kid) lol .... He ordered a new Corvette in blue, with the standard tan interior. I was 5 then, and recall flagging him down one day to let me see it. Great memories of childhood, and I've never lost my love for cars. If I was well-off enough, I'd own a barn full of those beautiful old classics. In about the mid-60s, I heard that a young man from a nearby town kept showing up at the 'rich kids' door, now married with a family .... He kept pestering the owner to sell it to him. Covered up with a heavy green canvas tarp for years, the owner finally said, "Young man, if it'll make you stop pestering me, you go home, bring me $800 cash and a trailer, and it's yours ". The young man came that afternoon and hauled it home. (This is a true story).
Love it , in the sixties my brother had a green one, great car and we used to get the horses up to ride with it, run them around the field 2 times and they'd go right into the corral. 🤩
OMG I have already commented on various vids of my love of these 50’s classically sculptured machines 🥰. My first car when a 17yrs old excited Scots girl was a gorgeous two tone blue 57 GM - Vauxhall Wyvern. Now at the age of 76 I wish I still had it 😭
Nice car, great lines, good colors... I like it !
Man that's the most beautiful 53 Chevy I've ever seen ! Wish I had the $ to make her mine ! 👍
Jay - Outstanding car!! Wish I could afford since I was born in 1953. You give the best in the industry review of this car and all you preview on videos. Keep up the great work!!!!
Thanks John! 😁
Beautiful '53 ....... 👍👍🙂
Fantastic paint color on it! 🤩
@@VoloMuseumAutoSales 👍
Born the same year as the Corvette and Playboy magazine. That's a good thing.
If they looked this awesome at the dealership back then Chevy'd have sold a Billion of'em
🤔 What if they bring it back now? hmmm...
Never been a 53 fan, but this is an exceptionally good-looking car!
It really was sharp! 😎
The best restored i have encountered thus far,great job
Thanks!
not original
@@stevenrobert8567It’s not supposed to be. It’s a very classy restomod.
The first car I remember was my Dad's 1953 210 hardtop. I didn't realize it was a 210 until I watched an old 8mm film.
A lot of old American cars are so long, but this is a good size and I like how chunky it is, kind of like the mercury coupe
OMG th Damsel….so beautiful….cute….nice….
Sweet car
Absolutely beautiful, Congratulations to all the team on 70K well deserved, we enjoy watching your channel and cars, I know you would like me to buy them, but I've been talking with Jay, just about cashed up, just need a little more, then we can move on something, as I gotta come meet you guys, will make and awesome video, USA to Tasmania Australia The Real Down Under 🤫😂🤣
Have a great weekend coming cheers🍻🍺 KC 🇦🇺🇦🇺🤝🇺🇸🇺🇸😎👍
I'm waiting for you to send me a Tasmanian Devil. The one that spins around like a Tornado and makes crazy sound as it's talking just like in the Cartoons from the 1960's.
Very sharp looking car
My mom had a powder blue 53 she loved it my dad was a truck guy he didn't drive it much😂
She sure is a beauty I remember my uncle had one back in the day when I was a youngster it was black with black interior sure was shiny though
BEAUTIFUL OLD SCHOOL CAR...
We had a 1953 Green and Cream White when I was a young child.
Not a Retro Mod fan but this is an exception! Done right!
The modifications are unobtrusive and classy. This car would be awesome to tour the weekend car shows during the summer months.
Beautiful car. I didn't know Chevy made 1953 Bel Air model. I mostly saw post sedan's 2 dr + 4 dr models. Me born in 1951, I remember next dr was 54 convertible
Beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers! 😍
Best 1953 Chevy EVER.
Every time you back out of that garage I think you’re going to smack the front left fender on the door frame. Lol.
yet too happen! 🤫
Me to! I have commmente3d on that before! One can only imagine if he was to hook a bumper or fender on one of these amazing and great cars!
Great Video & Amazing Car
Thank you! 😃👍
"ALL LED SLEDS ARE NOT LOWRIDERS"❣️👍
👍
Thats a nice looking car. I was honestly expecting it to be more than 63k.
i bought my first 53 bel air for $25. the toronto police towed it away of course on a rainy cold night .
I really miss the cars of the 50’s. I owned a ‘54 Plymouth. It was my 2nd. Car. I really wish they never did away with the Wing Windows.
You know I WANT IT !
My Grandparents had one of them, of course it had 6cyl. with a Auto. Black with a white top.
Beautiful 53 Chevrolet….
Awesome!
Thanks!
Gorgeous '53
i want it! All I have to do is convince my wife it is worth the asking price. Mission impossible.
Good luck!! 😜🙏
Hermoso.........beautiful 😀👍
absolutely beautiful how much does this car costs in dollars
Nicer than new.
My Grandfather owned a 1954 Chrysler Imperial 2 Door that he called "The Machine." This Car resembles the Chrysler, except it appears to be a little smaller.
Beautiful car. If I was going to blow my retirement on a car, this would be the one.
It would be a good choice! 😍
I just love that chevy 🤟 looks like my first car chevy bel air 1954 powerglide, beautiful gourgeus stunning 🦇 from the batcave thanks Jay grams president of volo auto museum from tom your friend always 🤩 🤩
Too bad it's not a Sedan Delivery how much for would the price be same condition
Awesome car bro❤ it
Hermoso Auto 😍 lo venden 😍 ahun esta disponible 😍? Les mando un cordial saludo y un fuerte abrazo desde México 😃🤗👍👌😍👋🏼.
In Canada, the Bel Air, was also called a Pontiac Laurentian, and wasn't a U.S Pontiac.
My first Chevy.
That is a custom car and should not be confused with original.
the chasei is real mai frend very goond jobe
I would not dare buy that car. My wife would kill me if I tried. While I was in Vietnam my brother sold her a 53 Chevy wagon that ended up in a ditch, full of kids, at night, in the middle of a Wisconsin winter. Yeah, she would have a fit. The woman is 75 years old and she has never forgotten that incident, or forgiven that car.
Hermoso carro.
From a Ford guy, nice car the top would look better white or silver !
😎👍
Question, where can we bring these cars when they need work ? Like oil change, tires, does not start, tune ups, etc. Where can we go for this service or go back to you ? Thank you sir. Looks awesome!
You could probably find some local mechanics that would work on it. Especially a vehicle like this one that had a much more modern Corvette engine put in, you could probably have a Chevrolet dealer service.
We have 4 full time mechanics that go through all our vehicles when they come in & before they leave. We don't have the capacity to offer mechanical services after a vehicle sells.
Better than a Mercedes Benz!
All of them or?
Beautiful car. Now you know why the 55 - 57 Chevys were called "shoe boxes."
The 49/50/51 Ford were the shoe boxrs
@@charliemcsorley6286 Nope!
I had a 53 in high school, it was a tank and never let me sit.
Not like today's cars. 🙁
Be nice to see one just restored oniginal
We get em.
wish it was truly restored
The days of the Two Tone paint job. Today that would be a $20,000 mark up
Easily that!!
My family had a new '53.
$64,000. Somebody should have oiled the trunk hinges.
fixed the weather strip on the door and straightened out the speedo. that being said very nice car.
And replace the trunk mat.
Próxima vez ..
Mostre só o carro.
Very Good!... #28 ✝ {10-7-2022}
$63,998.
Tiny Mustang II front end welded in then converted to 5 bolt was a cheap cop-out in my day. Chev S10 rear ends were not built for much torque input. - - - Show Car, not a Hot Rod.
❤😊❤😊❤

Think I will wait till these vehicles become available with electric motors. It is coming, folks.
Their already being converted in Switzerland.. ive seen a 64 SS and 66 impala full electric with tesla Drive train.. battery pack under hood replaces engine.. nothing different than factory other factory drive train gone. Interiors are intact.. only LCD screen added
I believe we were offered a converted electric something, can't recall what it was, not too long ago.
How about a price
www.volocars.com/auto-sales/vehicles/17449/1953-chevrolet-bel-air
It is a beautiful restomod but I would not call it restored. Restored means it was put back to factory specifications.
The price $$$?
All our prices are available on our website.

In 1960 I assume your family was selling 1900s and 1920s cars?🤔🧐
Pretty much, the two brothers Bill & Greg started with mostly Model T & A.

@@VoloMuseumAutoSales ✊😁 What happened to the Graham Brothers?
Loved the car, but I earned a price without further salesmanship. A product like that sells itself. Should I watch another and not be disappointed by a lack of price?
Correct, no need for any salesmanship. All of our prices can always be found on our website.

It needs skirts n a viser
It is a modified '53 Chevy . In 2953 no V-8 engine we're usted in any Chevy modelo .
Yo lo quiero fiamelo guan. Dala a many ok
nice care, the wheels gotta go though
I like to see some sidewall rubber. A 17 inch wheel looks OK on most classics?
Those 53 hard-top cars look absolutely killer painted bright red. That car is a perfect candidate to be repainted bright red even though it looks to have really nice paint on it now. Only problem is if it were repainted (done right) it would probably cost 20 grand to do so.
Easily 20k at a good shop!! 😲
Sir, Hello there, Good Day, share the asking ₹.... (IN INDIAN🇮🇳₹) ❤️🍲💐🆗🙏
My old man had a second hand 53 chevy 4dor until 1966. How embarrassing to ride in it. You could see the pavement through the floor and it smelled like hell. This video was great but the memories that were resurrected are unpleasant to say the least.
That sounds....uhhh, a little dangerous!! 😨
@@VoloMuseumAutoSales Ya' think ? He also drove me and my brother around in it after we waited an hour in that POS for him to come out of the tavern then he would put me in his lap and let me steer while he worked the pedals, what a guy.
He should have given the price😩

Pawnwars Rick:
Okay. I'll give you$1500 for it. And I'm taking all the risk. It's almost 70 years old.
good one!! 🤣
Me replying to Pawnstars Rick:
Now I want $70k. And I want to take it for one last cruise down the strip too.
Might be a Bondo Bucket too.
@@myrtlelittle4130 yep. You should definitely check that out BEFORE purchase.
Nice but not period correct wheels!
You were doing ok 'til you rolled up the passenger window at 5:06. Noisy, apparently needed some help with your right hand. Issue is not that it needed some attention, but rather that you didn't mention it. Used car salesman.
I also noticed the speedometer was crooked. Tilted to the left a bit.
Volvo cars are priced about 20% higher than most dealers for comparable quality. Many are on consignment. Buyer beware.
It's Volo, no Volvo.
We believe our cars are priced fairly & a lot of them don't seem to stay around long so...
Of our ~250 cars, less than 50 are on consignment, and are treated no different from our own cars.
Speedometer is crooked .Trunk needs work.. Go the extra mile to make it perfect !! Then we'll talk.
You could bring those concerns up to a salesman.
