"The iconic 1955 Bel Air Convertible. What could say more about mid-century America than this car? Becoming increasingly rare, these cars are usually found restored beyond new condition. But Art & Speed is proud to offer this beautiful ""survivor"". Dressed in its factory hue of Coral with white electric convertible top, fender skirts and wide whitewall tires, this car is pure to its original form. For a car surviving almost 70 YEARS, this car presents very well. The paint is certainly not show quality, but displays the character marks acquired with time. The chrome and stainless trim are complete and in very nice condition. The interior has been redressed in the correct Coral and Medium Gray vinyl and looks like new. The carpet has also recently been replaced with the original style German square-weave tailored and bound gray carpet as it had when new. Interior chrome and brightwork look like new as well. This car runs and drives great, powered by the BF code 205hp 265ci V8 with four-barrel carburetor. This was the hi-performance engine for 1955. Power is delivered through a two-speed Powerglide transmission.
Very seldom does an opportunity like this come along. Take a look at the photos and give us a call to see this charming time capsule. Call Art & Speed Classic Cars at 901-850-0507.

At Art & Speed, we believe that automobiles are more than just transportation. They are part of the "thrill ride" of life!
Maybe it was the car that carried you and that special person on your first date; or brought home your newborn baby. Perhaps a certain car brought father and son together in a project that created cherished memories through frustration, laughter and proud accomplishments. Maybe it was the object that created freedom and exhilaration from the growl of the big block engine, the smell of the interior and the fuel, the feeling of being one with the road. Perhaps it's all about the first time you saw your favorite car with it's sleek lines, wild colors, bold graphics, or elegant sense of beauty and artful design. The wind in your face and hair… The sensation of speed… And remember the family vacations? And, of course, none of us ever had our picture taken with our cars, right?
As adults, we have a passion for the "vehicles of our lives," the stories that they remind us of, the music that we hear when we see certain automobiles. Indeed, automobiles are woven into the tapestry of our lives, reminding us of simpler pleasures.
At Art & Speed, our goal is to help you relive those experiences and create new ones. Founded by Kevin Caffman and Barry Gilmore, Art & Speed delivers the vehicles, memorabilia and special events that strike passion, revive old memories, and allow us to share those events with our family and friends. And most importantly, Art & Speed will help you make new memories!
Art & Speed offers fine collectible automobiles, from original survivor to quality driver, show, and investment cars. We specialize in muscle cars, 50s and 60s classics, as well as modern performance, luxury and exotic cars.
Through our network of resources and professional restoration services, Art & Speed can also help you locate that special car you have been searching for or build the car of your dreams.
Art & Speed not only buys quality collector cars, but we also offer a consignment program for our clients who want to sell one car or a complete collection. Employing technology, we market your car to the broadest international audience possible. Art & Speed can also assist you in changing the composition of your current collection. We offer both buyer and seller agent services and can take your car to major auction events for maximum exposure.
Kevin has been a "car guy" since he was old enough to peer out the car windows, identifying every car by year, make and model. Over the years, he has built a reputation for building, owning and selling high quality collector cars. With a background in business, information technology and digital marketing, he has continued to pursue the art of classic automobiles as a hobby. After a successful career in the corporate world, Kevin decided to pursue his dream of owning and building a "different kind of business". Kevin sees vintage, classic and performance cars as an emotional interaction, merging the worlds of performance with the art of the automobile. Thus the vision for Art & Speed was born!
