That is why at Classic Cars Online. our listings will go over and show every area of the vehicle that is up for auction. Bid with confidence! Body & Paint: This is probably the best color combination for this car. Paint code "811" which stands for "India Ivory" for the upper color and "Tropical Turquoise" for the lower color. The vehicle received a frame off restoration about twelve years ago. This high end paint job is holding up very well. Both paint colors have no orange peel. checking. or fading and has a very good reflection depth. According to the past owner. the vehicle still retains all of it's original body panels and floor pans. All metal with no body filler. Looking down the sides. the vehicle is very straight and true. The body panel alignment and gaps are great. The car is fitted with a set of rear "Fender Skirts". These steel skirts are painted to match the car and come with the correct rubber seals and stainless trim. There is also a Double Bar Continental Kit installed. This original GM style continental package is in excellent condition and has a brand new matching wide white wall tire installed. It looks gorgeous on the car. The headlights have the original sytle "T3" type of bulbs. and are both working fine. Chrome & Trim: All of the chrome on the car exterior and interior is in very good shape. I'm sure most has been either replaced or re-chromed at one point. The bumpers. mirrors. door handles. taillights and headlight bezels look great. The chrome bumpers are aligned and fitted nicely. The black rubber bullets on the front bumper are in great condition. The stainless steel trim was been straighened and buffed. The aluminum side Bel Air inserts panels are new and in very nice shape with no dings or major scratches. The golden Bel Air grille is in perfect condition. All of the correct emblems are in great condition with only a little sign of wear. Interior: The interior is in excellent shape. It is the correct "673" coded Turquoise vinyl w/black & turquoise pattern cloth. Almost everything is new from the carpeting. seats. door panels. to the headliner. and floor mats. The instrument cluster looks great. All of the gauges and dash lights are in working order. The fuel gauge is not calibrated that well. All of the interior trim is also very nice. The chrome knobs. door handles and dash parts do not show any pitting or problems. The "Tropical Turquoise" paint on the dash and trim is in great condition without any chips or nicks. The factory steering wheel is near perfect along with the chrome center piece and horn ring. The wipers. lights. gauges. horns. speedometer. odometer. along with Wonderbar push button radio are all working. The Wonderbar radio is a repoduction model that has both AM and FM. The original clock currently does not work. The glove box compartment is in like new condition. Engine Compartment: The engine compartment is finished and detailed to the stock appearance. This 283 CID engine was rebuilt during the frame off restoration. There are approximately 7. 00 miles on this rebuilt motor. It starts. runs and sounds great. No problems. Currently there is a two barrel carburator setup on the vehicle. (Believed to be original to the car. ) There is also a "Power Pack" setup that will go along with the sale. (Four barrel intake manifold. carburator. and air cleaner. The vehicle already has a dual exhaust system installed. ) Bolted to this power plant is a three-speed manual transmission. (Three on the Tree. ) It is also working great along with the clutch. It shifts very easy and smooth. No known problems or noises. The car doesn't over heat. and runs cool during the summer months. There is a stock generator keeping the battery charged. Trunk Compartment: The trunk compartment still looks all stock. It is highly detailed and spotless. It has the correct black rubber mat along with the jacking and jacking tools in their correct places. There is a new wide white wall tire for a spare that matches the other tires. The trunk floor under the mat looks great along with the spare tire well. Chassis - Frame & Undercarriage: Remember. this was once a frame off restoration. Its been driven and enjoyed since then. The underside of the car is still fairly clean. It is sporting a dual exhaust system. There are no signs of rust or weak areas on the floor panels and/or the frame. The frame and other components and paint with the correct semi-gloss chassis black paint. Nine times out of ten. people selling a car would not talk about or take any photos of the underside. The undercarriage tells you a lot about the car. that is why there are a few pictures of the bottom. Glass: We believe that all of the glass pieces was replace during the restoration. They all look very good. even the windshield looks great with no stone chips or wiper marks. There are no chips. cracks. or scratches on the side and rear glass. All of the side windows roll up and down without any problems along with the two vent windows. The stainless steel "Flippers" that are over the doors are working and flip out once the door is open. Wheels & Tires: All six(6) tires are the Coker Classics with the correct size wide white wall. Size 7. 50-14. They are in great shape and still look new. These tires are mounted on the stock Chevrolet rims that are painted the correct Tropical Turquoise color. There are some minor chips on the rims between the tire and hub caps that could be touched up. These are the correct full size Bel Air hub caps with chrome spinners. The black detail area in the hub caps look good. The chrome spinners do not show and signs of pitting and the red center emblems are not faded.
