    Default 55 Belair Retrolet

    If you were going to buy a full size car wouldn't this be a contender?
    It's no wonder GM is in the tank when you compare the current Impala to the Retrolet.
    It's actually built on a 90's Chrysler Concorde platform.

    Or paint it black and white and bring back the series "Car 54 Where Are You?"


    There is no way to happiness....happiness is the way.

    Very unique!! Sure a lot sharper looking than the '55 I owned (I'd probably take mine, if I had the choice though)!

    There are several of those kits out now, they also have one that transforms your 1997-03 Camaro into 1957 Chevy and I have seen one in person and I must say they look very good. The funny thing is they have a kit for the 1998-2004 S-10's, but unfortunately they used the Studebaker front and rear for that application.
