The 1955 Chevrolet was considered a major turning point for Chevrolet. Everything, was entirely new for Chevy in 1955 including design, styling and engine. As for the successful full size Bel Air models, they were produced by Chevrolet from 1950 to 1975 in the U.S. and until 1981 in Canada.
The 1955-1957 year range represented a lot of effort by GM. They spent a million dollars in 1956 alone because they wanted to make the Bel Air look like the more expensive Cadillacs. The 57 Chevy is great car and the 55-57 Tri-Fives are still very much in attendance car shows and meets.
