Stock #: V18735 Exterior Color: Red Interior Color: Black Body Type: Coupe Transmission: 4 Speed Engine: 327-300 HP Title Condition: Clear A collector bought this 55 right out of California 11 years ago and hardly used it. Really, he didnt use it, he just wanted it. 4-speed with air is very desirable.

Rear window has some scratches. Majority of the chrome looks like it's been redone. Up front the bumper, bumper guards, grill, headlight bezels look new. Rear bumper is rechromed but has some pitting, taillights are new. Side stainless trim is good original. The paint in the jambs is a little scratched up. Has vintage style 15 inch chrome Cragars with spinners and white letter BF Goodrich tires.

The rear speaker deck is also custom upholstered and has some real cool speaker grills and 55 embroidered in the middle. Carpet is new. The dash is painted to match the exterior. Has a really nice billet instrument bezel with white face gauges and a hot rod style tachometer on the steering column. Has matching clock. Beautiful custom billet steering wheel. Retro cassette stereo. Vintage Air heater controls look original but are electric instead of the old cables. A/C vents are nicely installed under the dash.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Tje trunk was just boxed and carpeted. Has amplifier and subwoofers.
UNDERSIDE: Wow, this is what a true California car is supposed to look like. Clean original metal floors. Even the braces and inner rockers look like dry original metal. Has disc brake conversion in front. Bottom of the motor has chrome oil pan. Has 4-speed trans, Hurst linkage. In back it has chrome traction bars. New fuel tank, straps, sending unit and lines. Fat exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers. I look under a lot of 55-57s, this has about the cleanest original metal I've seen.
This car isn't perfect but looks great, has clean California floors, 4 speed with air. And it's not 50 or 60 thousand $ either!
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail.

About Volo Auto Museum No other collector car dealer has been in business longer than the Volo Auto Museum. Owned and operated by the Grams family since 1960. We are the only collector car dealer that has 4 generations of experience with buying, selling and consigning classic autos. For our family, classic cars are more than a business, it is a passion. Over the decades, we have maintained a reputation for dealing with integrity as proven with our high reviews and A+ rating with the BBB. Buying a classic car can be exciting, but also stressful. We want to take the stress out of your buying experience by allowing you the time and tools you need to get to know the car you are interested in before making your investment, not after. Unlike auctions, we allow test drives, 3rd party inspections, the use of our shop and car lift. No reasonable request will be turned down. Selling a car can be equally stressful, but it doesn’t have to be. After reviewing your quality collector car, we will discuss the options we have available to you and let you decide what works best for you. We have cash available for immediate sales and we also offer a consignment program that surpasses anyone else’s. Unlike percentage based programs with fees; we work with a no fee, net to owner. This allows us the opportunity to treat and market your car as if it were our own. We invest approximately $1500 of our own money into marketing your car, which means if it doesn’t sell, we lose, not you. So, we are more aggressive in selling your car! Contact us for more details
