The 1955 Chevrolet (sometimes referred to as '55 Chevy) is an automobile that was made by Chevrolet in 1955. It is considered a huge turning point for the manufacturer and a major success. It was available in three models: the 150, 210, and Bel Air.

The '55 Chevy was the first successful Chevrolet with an optional V8 engine. Chevrolet decided to fit its new car with an overhead valve V8 engine design, which was similar to the 1949 Oldsmobile "Rocket 88" V8 engine. The new 265-cubic-inch overhead valve V8 was designed to be smaller, lighter, and more powerful than previous V8s in the auto industry.

Additionally, Chevrolet drastically changed its body design. It had smooth straight panels on the sides and hood, wrap-around glass on the windshield, and triangular tail lights that jutted outward. And this new look, combined with new power and engineering, made the '55 an instant hit with the buying public and a critical success.

We have a highly restored version 1955 Chevy Post 210 at Skyway Classics. It is restored and modified with many features and is stunning! It is painted in an original color combo of Regal Turquoise and Ivory with a matching interior. It is powered by a stout small block Chevy engine featuring headers, dual exhaust, Edelbrock carb, and intake, matching polished and turquoise valve covers and air cleaner assembly, air conditioning, performance radiator, performance distributor, and much, much more.

It rolls on 5 spoke polished mags and performance tire and the ride is great because every nut and bolt on the entire car has been redone or upgraded. All of it can be monitored on the upgrade center gauge panel with color matching gauges! This is without a doubt, one of the best 1955 Chevys on the planet! No expense was spared to build this car and you could eat off any part of it. And we have here at Skyway Classics.
