THIS BELAIR IS A ROADSTER CONVERTIBLE STYLE MEANING THAT IT DOES NOT HAVE SIDE WINDOWS OR TOP. EVERYTHING WAS MODIFIED AND BUILT TO BE UNIQUE FROM OTHER 57'S. COMES WITH 2 DIFFERENT CARBURETOR SCOOPS. THIS CAR WAS LISTED BEFORE AFTER THE RESTORATION WAS FINALLY COMPLETED IN 2009 BUT HAS BEEN SITTING IN THE GARAGE WITHOUT TAKING IT TO ANY CRUISE OR SHOW. OWNER PASSED AWAY THEREFORE NOW I NEED TO SELL SINCE PAYING OFF A LOAN AND GETTING THE CLEAR TITLE. THE ONLY OTHER OPTION IS TO TRADE FOR A VERY NICE 70 CHEVELLE SS AND NO OTHER VEHICLE CONSIDERED. MUST IMPLY THAT IT WILL ONLY BE A 70 SS396 OR SS454 WITH BUCKET SEATS AND 4 SPEED. I WILL NOT CONSIDER ANYTHING ELSE BUT CASH. THE CAR COMES WITH COWL TAG. CLEAR TITLE AND REGISTRATION. THERE IS SLIGHTLY OVER $100K INVESTED IN THIS VEHICLE AND CURRENTLY INSURED WITH GRUNDY INSURANCE FOR CLASSIC CARS.
