Chevrolet 1956 Bel Air Comes to Auction with Mecum

Chevrolet reached a height of innovation between the 1930s and 1940s. During this time, the company created several important automotive inventions, including column shifts, V-grilles, hydraulic brakes, and independent front suspensions. Chevrolet’s 1956 Bel Air model benefitted from those developments. One of these cars will be available in Mecum Auctions’ upcoming 8-10 Houston 2021 sale. The Bel Air continues to be one of the most popular models ever produced. It features a V-8 engine, a three-speed column shifted transmission, and a two-tone finish. 

A Dodge Hemi Charger R/T from 1968 is also available. It is one of the few models with an automatic transmission. A dark blue metallic hue accents the body. The upcoming timed auction also features a 1968 Chevrolet C10 pickup, a 1956 Chevrolet 150 Handyman, a 2020 Chevrolet Corvette 3LT, and a 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon.
