As quoted from Formacar, Monday (25/5/2020), there's a 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air owned by Dave Moreau from So Cal Classic Car Storage who has seen plenty of the cars made like new over the years. But this 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air was different from others, it feels something special for him because he inherited it from his grandfather, so named the car as Legacy.

After more than half a century of use for daily activity, now this legendary vintage coupe is demanding a complete overhaul of the drivetrain, chassis, and cabin. So then the car owner entrusted these jobs to RMD Garage. And after spending several thousand work hours they managed to get it all done.

Although the car is an old Chevrolet, after rejuvenating, its LS3 V8 engine taken from modern Corvette can produce 450 hp (336 kW) of power, as well as there's applies a Borla doubled-exhausts, and also a four-link coil-over suspension system. While for the brakes were entrusted to the Wilwood six-piston to ensure proper braking at all times and finally its new body received an elegant, fresh white and red wine color coating.

Meanwhile, the interior treatment also gets an equally attractive treatment. Yes, the entire interior uses the soft and smooth genuine leather to cover everything in sight and a sophisticated HVAC system is also installed for the comfort of whoever is in the cabin.
Once that is done, it seems that some collectors may be disappointed to hear that Dave SoCal's Legacy 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air will be used as a pure show car and won't be available for sale now or in the near future. This beautiful car has appeared in one of the largest exhibition events in the world, namely the SEMA 2018. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | RMD GARAGE | FORMACAR.COM]
