*NO RESERVE* Lot #228 - 1965 Chevy Bel Air 2-door

$0.00

1965 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-Door Sedan

Originally sold in California, this 1965 Bel Air was relocated to Pennsylvania in 2018. In 2020, the car transferred to the current owner via a winning auction bid. The car needed some work, and the current owner completed that plus more.

This car has the original Turbo-Fire 327ci small-block V8 under the hood. The original Powerglide was previously replaced, and engine power is now transferred through a new 4-Speed manual transmission that was replaced by Butch Dennison.

All the fluids in this vehicle now flow through new components on the car also. This includes the radiator, fuel tank, and all the brake lines (both hard and flexible). The brake system was also upgraded with a dual-master cylinder with power-assist. Tires were replaced in 2018.

The car was previously repainted in the original Artesian Turquoise and the matching turquoise interior is still original. The interior is kept cool by the factory installed AC. This 1965 Bel Air is now offered with a clean Washington title.

The cowl tag indicates the following production details:

  • 06A — Produced in the first week of June

  • 65-15611 – 1965 Bel Air V8 two-door sedan

  • Los – Los Angeles, California assembly plant

  • 850 – Turquoise interior trim

  • K – Artesian Turquoise exterior finish
