New for 1956/ 7 was the Bel Air four-door 'Sport Sedan', a pillarless hardtop that looked great with all the windows rolled down
As featured in Season 8 Episode 10 of Wheeler Dealers with Mike Brewer and Ed China
Originally in Pastel Blue with white flashes, it was stripped back and repainted in Ferrari Gallio Fly with a white roof and side flashes
During the restoration many of the original chrome parts were replaced along with a full mechanical check over
The interior was also changed at the same time and the car was then offered by Mike and duly sold to our vendors
It has been enjoyed by them ever since, however after a period of time the paint was showing signs of deterioration so the decision was taken to fully strip the car to bare metal and professionally re-finish it in yellow again
The interior was also completely changed to its current black and white 'tuck and roll' configuration which suited our vendor's taste
Finally it was treated to a set of Torque Thrust II alloys which set this classic 1950s sedan off perfectly
Welcome anywhere from 'Happy Days' parties to society weddings. Knocking on the door of 'super cool'
