’55 Chevrolet Bel Air

Much like its ’57 younger sibling, the ’55 Chevrolet Bel Air has become an icon of its era thanks to its crisp, stylish design. While the Bel Air debuted in 1954, the ’55 model was a dramatic departure from anything that had come before, incorporating more straight lines in its design as well as a grill that was inspired by Ferarris of the time. The car was also given a powerful V8 engine which, while not a novel concept for a Chevy, certainly made it stand out from other cars that were released that year.
