Not only did a daring new “shoe-box” body design make the all-new 1955 Chevy® look fast, it was fast, thanks to the all-new V-8 engine. Through the years, the ‘55 Chev has remained a gearhead favorite and your Monogram model represents the ultimate version of this famous street machine. The classic lines of the original Bel Air® remain unchanged, but the front bumper has been removed to reduce weight. The front end has been “jacked up,” and a lightweight tube axle with leaf springs handles the steering chores. A GMC® 6-71 blower adds extra “GO” to the small-block V-8. The custom interior sports “tough” bucket seats and that all-important roll bar. Wide street tires mount on slotted mags, and the stock grille and hood ornament help accent the beautiful paint.
