- In this video I give a full in depth tour of a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
This car was for sale @ $17,500 which is negotiable, and if anyone is interested in inquiring about the car you can contact Ms. Lysbeth Hart at 803-285-3918
Hands down the most beautiful car in the world.
I totally agree this is my dream car
+Nick The Fox yes it costs 2 million pesos. i think it is fully restored.
American automakers were at their prime these days!!! never see a beautiful classic like this
@@Whatruacop97 Same
I don't think so.
Best year of the Bel Air, no doubt.
I agree
I'd say '57 is the best year for it
I'd say 1957 was the best year, but still a beautiful car nonetheless
I think 55,56,57 was the best year
I have a 56 its amazing
This makes me miss Angry Grandpa.
Rest In Peace AGP
AGP would be proud to own this one aswell. So sad that he's now gone to the other side of the clouds. You know, in honour of AGP i might buy one of these
Alex Hickey I’ve always wanted a 55, now I want one even more
We all know that agp is in a much better place now 😇
i guess I'm kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good place to stream newly released movies online ?
@Tate Emmett i would suggest FlixZone. You can find it on google =)
'55, '56. and '57 chevy's ... some of the greatest American cars ever
No doubt they are great cars. You can see one of these in about every car show you go to though. You can’t even watch one of the Mecum auto auctions without seeing one of these somewhere in it.
That's not just a car. It's a piece of art.
Took me 2yrs to redo this car in 1996
It isn't my favorite car, but I have to admit it's one of the best looking cars ever
No power brakes, drums, no seatbelts, no airbags, no headrests. Lovely.
Like most cars of that era...
Lokstock220 I know, lovely because no one cared back then.
People also just drove safer back then
Look at the fit on the doors 55 years later, man these cars were very well made.
1:30 that horn sounds like an old school bus
Beautiful American classic!! A guy who owns a Toyota dealer near me has a 57 Bel Air in his show room. It was flawlessly restored and had a color combination similar to this, 2 speed powerglide trans and the 283 V8. Absolutely stunning car but it wasn't for sale. =( It was nice to see someone who appreciates these old cars. I'd be interested to find one of these for myself one day!! Great review Kyle!
Nothing beats American Classics😍
These things are the coolest Chevorlets ever! (Yes cooler than a Corvette!)
The new generation don't understand how beautiful and how better are the cars from the 50s
on OLX i found also a 1955-1956 model. it costs around 2 million pesos. i guess it is fully restored.
this car is just beautiful . the most beautiful car i've seened.
I love how simple and elegant the cars were back in the 50's. Don't get me wrong... I like the techy stuff in the new cars but it's nice to see back to a simple Time (Kinda)
What a beautiful car, it's aged well!
Love those Chevy's!
Still one of the most beautiful cars EVER!!!! I want one SO freaking bad!
Epic Horn ahaha
The ornament on that car is just amazing, is art.
This is angry grandpa's dream car, we miss you angry grandpa. I'm sad u died. Rest in peace to agp from 1950-2017
I think the chevy emblem being on the dash like that is cool as hell.
Beautiful classic. Horn sounds awesome
I'd love to own one of these, every time i see one at a car show i fall in love. my favorite was this black and white one with black leather interior... yum. :D I would love to own one of these some day
gotta love the little chevrolet emblems all over the dashboard.
So sad they don't make cars like this anymore :(
There is a company in Indiana that got permission from GM to build new 55,56,and 57s they are considered kit cars but they are gorgeous! Starting cost is $75.000
Chevy still makes awesome cars soooooooooooooooo
@denny1527 Yep 1981 is when they stop making the Bel Air
Amazing how good it looks after so many years.
This is not original paint I restored this car in 1996 took it all apart media blastered it painted it apart and put it all back together with new interior .sold ot to a guy from north Carolina. OH and it has a 2 inch long burn on driver rear floor 😢😢
that car has ATTITUDE!! something that modern cars are completely out of...
1:30 I wish that horn was in every modern cars.
If only cars nowadays were styled like this
Anybody remember the vacuum-operated wipers on these cars ? They slowed to a friggin` *crawl* whenever you stepped on the gas, making driving in the rain a real adventure....
Sounds like the heads have never been off that block since 1955.... :-)
Bel air is my favorite American classic from the 50s
This brings back youthful and good memories as i had the exact same car, with the exception of mine being a 2 door post. I owned mine from 1963 to 1967 (age 17 to 21).
Works of art, cars got ugly in the late 70's/80's plastic industry took over and eco crap
What about today's cars- they all look so angry now.😯
JRT except the beetle.
Agreed
Bumble bee will remember that
What a beautiful American Classic! You rock Kyle! Only 53 videos to go!
I like these cars more!! Wonderful job bro.
Wow nice it's a 4 door, I sense alot of awesomeness!
RANT BELOW!
American car manufacturing priorities went from good looks, the love of the ride, and 'No replacement for displacement' to... MPG's and safety and mass manufacturing, and weight reducing as much as possible. Plastic side panels? No more rust, I suppose... Safety bumpers? There goes the chrome... Air bags (while rather useful) took away the design on the steering wheel... Come on, the real cars are the ones that have this charm about them, the ones that bring you back to that time period. Nobody will see a Camry or Civic in 20 years and think it for that much of a car. Or a Taurus or Avenger, for that matter. Cars today have no personality or charm.
Just my two cents...
Dustin Shilt Yeah man, America lost one of its defining features when emission and safety regulations came into place...
Joe Moorman
That would imply Front-wheel drive is a good thing.

Now I know you're not being serious that you said "GM is having the best sales". Funny how they've recalled more cars more than they sold because they're too incompetent to go back to a 20 year old ignition switch design that was perfect, and people are dumb enough to keep buying them. But not only that, GM has been having a lot more issues than just the ignition, it's their whole modern day design. Chrysler and Ford seemed to pull their heads out of their ass, and GM hasn't. Modern day American cars now are just 100% plastic, overloaded with electronics and have some really dumb engineering (not as horrible as BMW's engineering flaws ;) ) I'd take a durable, full metal 60's/70's sports car over a modern day 2014 plastic, 200hp FWD "super sports" car. In the event of a collision, you're not going to die.
I agree aswell, whilst modern cars have improved dramatically in passenger safety and controllability with the likes of ABS and traction control, modern cars (with a very few exceptions because remember there's always exceptions to everything), have hee-haw character to them, you only need to look at the color-keyed dash and interior aswell as the aluminium work on the dash, so intricate, the way the car's sculpted with it's roofline, and that was before we had CAD or robotic panel presses and precision tools, and yet they were able to do some very inventive and amazing stuff, the Hydraulic electric windows always amazed me how that worked, modern cars have went all that grey plastic way, too much focus on MPG and electronic gadgets and not enough on actually driving the car.
I can believe that GM replace this for the Impala
By far the best family car ever made by chevrolet.
I'd take it to university every day, meanwhile everyone else is driving Camry's and accord's. That would be sick af.
64k original miles on this beauty... amazing... what a gem.
Fantastic! love the 50s love cars makes 50s cars a double love! Ed Cole and Harley Earl made this car udderly perfect! keep the great vids a comin.~Marty
Terrific job Kyle! Those are rare especially in Cuba 🇨🇺 they have tons of them.
Very original. Even oil bath air filter. Note the PS on the generator, tiny one line master brake cylinder. Not sure wire wheels are the best choice.
The Bel Airs were one of the coolest cars during the mid-20th century. They were all quite detailed. ^_^
Nice Review as always,,,,,American dream machine of yesteryears,,A piece of art,,
Nice classic car back when a chevy was a Chevy!!!!! And notice how the car is at a sonic drive in lol it's the perfect theme!!!!!!! 50"s car + 50"s drive in= A video #WIN
I wish my car had a horn like that. Mine is more pathetic than the one off my old smart car lol
Hamilton Dashcammer classic cars had louder horns back then. My grandmas classic car had a loud horn
Back when cars were actually cars.
The only time that I see one of these is at car show's in my hometown.
That is thee chevrolet v8. And coupled with the classic 2speed powerglide = :-)
Such a nice ride. And for the time its from, those power figures arent by any means bad.
Good lord! Its the car my grandfather drove when he was young!
Love these Bel Airs, but also love my 66 Bel Air 2-door post big block.
Round mirrors - very nostalgic!!! Awesome
Imagine having this car in 1955..
I love that car! It's my favorite, memorable, automobile! I've always wanted to drive 1, and play it's stereo LOUD! And show off! (Screeching tyres, and loudly revving!) I'm in to it. Sorry, for being dramatic. 😎
That's my favorite car! Salvador Bahia Brazil.
@thebradybunchlover It's isn't very expensive to buy an old classic but the expensive part is when you have to keep one running and looking good bro. I'd love to own one of these one day for a cruiser.
i love the trifives best cars GM ever made when they put quality ahead of profits one thing though its hard to know if thats original miles because unless its documented you cant really tell those counter only went to 100,000 then they went back to 0 but ill take it anyways looks beautiful
Any chance you have the Vin# off this car? It was my dads and I’m trying to track it down…
That bench seat.
love the hula dancer on the dash
@827rover ..there were no V6s' back then, only straight 6s, besides the taillight emblems show a V which indicates its a V8 & the steering wheel hub also has the V symbol indicating it's a V8.. your right about the coolant tho, there's a leak somewhere..
these cars are just beautiful!
MAN This think was LOADED back in its day! It even has FUZZY DICE! :P
4:12 that little pin on the side vent window latch looks pointy and sharp.
Great I have to Start over again with This Bel air Well Guess should Start this thing up
beautiful car!!!!!!!!!!!
one of the best cars ever
Very nice car and review!
i want one when im grown
I like the 1955 and the 1957 two door bel air
How come back in the old days all old cars had beach seats my grandpas old red pickup truck had a bench seat no backseat
Mason Fox because it was the norm at the time, that and it allowed people to sleep in their car, or have a date to ‘very’ successfully amongst the young teens and young adults
this car is legendary!!
@827rover Its a 265 cu. in. V8, it looks like a 2 barrel carb. with single exhaust which had 164 hp. 4 barrel carb. with dual exhaust had 180hp.
Ohhhhhhhhh....love those cars!!
Please ship to me in Scotland asap!!!! LOL
the horn is lovely 1:30
My dream car!
@MrThestig8 The Catera is probably one of those cars where you see more in some places then others, I know it didn't sell too well.
I've decided. Some day, I shall have this car.
Love this car sooooo much
1:40 my god it shifts so smoothly
If you drove it like I did at 60 mph all you hear is wind whipping by
lol the exhaust pipe.
one of a kind.
Great video as always Kyle!
@Sephirius The 1955 V8 had solid lifters and if weren't adjusted perfectly were noisey.
nice old car
Wow Kyle you've outdone yourself yet again. Sweet ride!!
All you needed kyle was to play some Elvis Pressly to create a perfect image back in time!
@SinclairisCool it was the first year a chevy came with a V8 and it was a 265CI, 4.3 liter with a 2bbl carb. it's not that big of an engine. it is pretty much the same size as the v6 used in chevy trucks today. This car could be tweaked as well. The 1956 and 57 offered the 283 with fuel injection or a 4 barrell that pumped out between 280 and 300hp. and the 327 and 348 were even more powerful.
Classic is still a Classic
beautiful car
thats one bad ass car!
My grandmothers first car was a belair four door with blue and white trim. Funny, lol
my grandfather had this car
Nice car, it was built when Firestone actually made good tires.
