1954 Chevrolet Bel Air Base Sedan 2-door 3.8l on 2040-cars

1954 Chevrolet BelAir 235 CU. 6 CYL Automatic - Power Glide - 2 Door    Original color with one re-paaint - Peblo Tan and Indian Ivory

40,145 miles on old speedometer - 496 miles on new speedometer.  I came across NOS speedometer, complete in box and since the old speedometer worked but was noisy, I changed the speedometer. Both speedometers come with car, as seen in pictures.

INTERIOR: Beautiful headliner, new rope, and tack strip professionally installed. The dashboard and steering column were professional painted the original color. Beautiful job.  New carpet and padding.  Seats: The top of backseat was sun burnt so I tried putting NOS seat covers on, as you can see in the pictures, but the bottom of backseat did not fit so that's when I quit. Probably should just get new covers and start over.

EXTERIOR: Solid South Carolina car brought to Indiana about 8 years ago.  Always parked inside and not driven in any kind of winter weather. I can see a small amount of body work between trunk lid and bumper pan. Shown in pictures. Rest of the car is solid including floor pans and all panels. Driver's side window works but does not work smoothly. Fogging on both wing vent windows. Other things: If car sets for a few weeks and you do not drive regularly the transmission pan gasket leaks but if driven regularly it does not leak at all.

I was told that it had a re-built motor installed in about 1996 but I do not have receipt for it. I do have receipt for re-built transmission installed 2/14/1996. I have a whole package of receipts for other things done to the car including when it was converted to 12 volt. This will come with the car. New front shocks were installed last year also new water pump.  A new battery approximately 2 years ago.  GAUGES: Gas gauge does not work - all other gauges work.  Has good replacement radio with cassette with Chevy emblem but it is hooked to old original speaker and does not sound too good. I have original radio if wanted. The horn stuck on so I had to disconnect wires at the horns. Also, took horn ring out under the cap on steering wheel, it is in the glove box.

All and all the car runs and drives and still has plenty of pep. It will turn heads wherever you drive it! We have sold our home and moving to a new place with less garage space.

For more information call 574-361-5673 as I'm sure there are things I have missed in the ad. Please DO NOT leave voice mail as I will not receive it.
