1962 Chevrolet Bel Air

This Bel Air is a stylish Australian-delivered right-hand-drive 1960s American ‘lowrider’, finished in the vibrant hue of Light Evergreen. It is powered by a 350ci (5.7L) V8, driving the rear wheels through a two-speed ‘Powerglide’ automatic transmission. This Bel Air has been fitted with a host of modifications, from a new Chevrolet crate engine, to the hydraulic suspension setup. The car is finished in Light Evergreen with a white flake roof and side stripe over a green vinyl-trimmed cabin with front and rear bench seats. It rides on a set of 13-inch wire wheels, shod with whitewall tyres. The specification includes upgraded disc brakes, a replacement Chevrolet crate engine, a Black Magic hydraulic suspension setup with two pumps and a Y-bone kit, a solid centre bearing, a slip shaft, six batteries, and tinted windows.
