3988-PHX 1957 CHEVROLET BEL AIR DIESEL RESTOMOD
This 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Diesel Restomod debuted at Goodguys Scottsdale 2021 after a meticulous 7-year build. The Black Diamond paint amplifies every iconic line of this modified classic, while custom-fabricated hood and side trim pieces create a streamlined appearance. The vehicle's aggressive profile is accentuated by its lowered stance, riding on Schott Fuel wheels - 19x8"" front and 20x12"" rear. LED halo headlights and a custom billet grille modernize the front end, while flawless chrome bumpers and expertly polished stainless trim complement the overall design.
The Crimson Red interior takes inspiration from the Lamborghini Urus, featuring custom leather and vinyl bucket seats with CNC-stitched inserts and French seams. A custom center console houses the Bluetooth radio system, connected to 12 JL speakers and a 10-inch subwoofer powered by a 5-channel JL amplifier hidden in the trunk. The body-colored dash surrounds custom gauges, while power windows, air conditioning, and a tilt steering column provide modern functionality.
The 6.6L Duramax LMM diesel engine produced an impressive 634 horsepower and 1,098 ft-lbs of torque at the wheels. A ZF6 6-speed manual transmission, cryo-treated with a stage 3 clutch, handles the massive power output. The Roadster Shop REVO chassis, powder-coated in titanium, features AFCO coilovers and Wilwood drilled and slotted disc brakes with custom Hellair calipers. A 3.00 Eaton TruTrac differential with 35-spline axles puts the power to the pavement.
