I have no paperwork to support this, but it is obvious work was done to the engine when you pull the valve cover. You are more than welcome to check the vacuum and compression on the car. It drives beautifully with plenty of power.
The interior has been redone and is beautiful. 6 seatbelts have been added. There are some marks/scratchesunder the windshield area on the dash, the interior chrome is complete and in brilliant shape. The electric clock and cigarette lighter are in working order. The left turn signal works but does not cancel, the right signal works perfectly. All other lights and switches are in working order.
The exterior chrome is complete and in good shape, but the bumpers are showing some signs of age.
All gauges operate as normal except the generator light because the car was upgraded to an alternator. A voltmeter gauge has been added to compensate.
All badges in great condition.
All glass in excellent condition.
Windows and doors operate as they should.
Comes with original owner's manual and extra keys.
Original spare and complete jack.
Brand new period correct stereo with USB jack (the radio is digital,but you can slide a switch on the face,and it will look like a period correct face with the old school numbers) also added a brand-newdual cone stereo speaker.
Floor pans and frame are in great shape. Some evidence of body work, in a couple small sections on the lower door and rockers, please see the locations I point out in the video. Repair patches welded into rockers underneath car, they are sealed and painted. New #2 and #4 Floor braces were replaced on both sides (4 total replaced) they have been primed and painted. A small amount of rust under the trunk splash pan.Underneath is very solid.Lately I have taken it on some 100+ mile drives and have noticed it will leave a few drips of trans. fluid, nothing major though.Front, rear, side and roll up windows are in excellent condition. The driver's side vent window has a small amount of fogging on the extreme edge.
This car starts right up, tracks straight, and goes down the road beautifully. Just drove it on a 250-mile trip.Everything is done.......Get in it and drive!
I put a lot of time and money into this car over my last couple years of ownership to get it to safe and reliable condition. All the work is done, get in it and drive. You won't find one finished to this level at this price.
The Bel Air is being sold in as-is condition and I encourage and welcome all potential buyers to have the car checked out thoroughly by your mechanic at your expense.
