In 1962 the Bel Air lineup lost its four-door hardtop, the two-door “bubble top” remained popular, especially among racers. Impalas and Bel Airs were available with a 409-cid V-8 engine. But ironically the Bel Air sport coupe was reported to be over one-second faster in the quarter-mile.

This 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air is finished in Tuxedo Black with a red interior. The engine is the optional 409-cid V-8 with two four-barrel carburetors, this setup was reported to have 1-hp per 1-cid. It has a T-10, four-speed manual transmission, tachometer and a Posi-traction rear end. The car has the radio and heater delete option which was a popular choice for someone with racing on their minds.
The five-year frame-off restoration was completed in January of 2014 and the Bel Air is now with less than 50 test miles on the car. The 409 V-8 engine is one of the most desirable setups, and this car is said to have all the correct drivetrain.
