When the new 1955 Chevrolet was introduced, it is said the designers had one goal – to shatter all previous ideas about what a lower-priced car could be and do. The manufacturing efficiency of General Motors and Chevrolet provided the means and the result was an economical car that looked like it was a custom creation. The Bel Air was touted as being “…for thrift as America’s lowest-priced family sports car.” Fresh and functional, it is well-recognized as being free from the “overdone” look.
