This 1955 Plymouth Belvedere represents a major redesign year, combining iconic '50s elements like the hardtop, tailfins, and two-tone paint scheme. The black and white exterior creates a bold contrast, amplified by chrome trim running the full length. Fender skirts and 15-inch wheels with 6.70-15 whitewall tires complete the classic look. Dual exhaust tips hint at the V8 power under the hood.
Red vinyl dominates the interior, creating a vibrant atmosphere. The split-bench seat offers ample room, while the column-mounted shifter for the Powerflite automatic keeps the floor uncluttered. Factory gauges provide clear readouts, and the original AM radio stands ready to play period tunes. Air conditioning - a rare option for '55 - keeps passengers cool. Custom floor mats add a personal touch to this well-preserved cabin.
A 259 cubic inch V8 engine powers this Belvedere, mated to a two-speed Powerflite automatic transmission. The single two-barrel carburetor balances performance and efficiency. Coil springs up front and leaf springs in the rear provide a comfortable ride. Drum brakes at all corners bring this classic to a stop. The aftermarket dual exhaust system gives the V8 a subtle rumble without being overpowering.
