Description:

1955 Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 4 Door

This auction offers a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air time capsule for sale. The car has been owned by one family since new. However, the necessity to liquidate the estate property where the vehicle has been located since 1967 requires that it be offered for sale at this time. The history given below represents the composite knowledge of it's current owner and two other older grandsons of the original owner that is believed accurate and true.
The car has been garaged since new. It has not been driven since sometime in the 1990's, resting on a concrete floor and being covered, so it is not in current operating condition. It has 66,XXX miles which are actual. It is believed that the car is 95% or greater original. The second generation owner added a OEM radio and replaced the carpet with OEM original materials. A very minor repair was made immediately behind the back glass. Two persons versed in vintage auto's who were trying to help the family with decision points thought that there may have been a repair at some time to the left rear quarter panel. However, no surviving family member has any information about such a matter. Additional details provided or questions gladly answered upon request.
The 4-door is two-tone black and white with a grey interior. The auto is powered by a 265 V-8 engine, with a three speed manual transmission. The shift mechanism is on the column.
The owner possesses a valid, clean West Virginia title to the vehicle.
The car may be viewed near Glenville, West Virginia on May 19, 2018, between the hours of 10 am and 3 pm. Detailed directions will be provided upon request.
A successful purchaser must remove the car from it's present location within 10 calendar days of the conclusion of the auction. Duplicate original bills of sale will be prepared referencing the vehicle by it's description and VIN, verifying receipt of payment and providing for the buyer to verify that he or she accepts the car in an "as is" condition.
The owner will accept a bank draft or cashier's check as form of payment. Payment is requested within seven days of auction close.
