Fire-Breathing 509ci V8: 1972 Chevrolet Corvette

Same Owner 50 Years: 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS

Ran When Parked: 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad

The original Chevy Nomad might be thought of as an experiment as it was produced in smaller numbers for three years and then discontinued. From the cowl forward, it was a Bel Air; but for the rest of the… more»

44k Mile Survivor: 1969 Chevrolet Impala

Street Skinner Package: 1992 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1

Two-Tone Barn Find: 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air

The Bel Air was part of Chevy’s lineup for more than 25 years, spending time at both ends of the trim spectrum (both as a top-of-the-line model to an entry-level offering). During the “Tri-Five” years of 1955 to 1957,… more»

Flatbed Required: 1972 Chevrolet Nova

Dealer-Fitted 4-Speed? 1970 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS 454

This 1970 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS 454 is a car that doesn’t exist. Okay, now you are probably questioning my sanity. Buyers couldn’t order these classics with a four-speed bolted to the back of the big-block, but this beauty… more»

409/4-Speed: 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air Bubbletop
