1962 Chevrolet Bel Air 2 Door Sedan 409ci / 409hp / 4 speed |
This is a numbers matching Bel Air 2 Door Sedan. Only 140 of this model was produced in 1962 equipped with a 409 Cubic Inch engine developing 409 Horsepower with a 4-speed transmission. This vehicle has less than 23,000 miles since originally built in 1972. It was found and restored to near factory condition in the 80s and has been judiciously maintained ever since.
