CAL Automotive Creations built a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air restomod featuring a 598-cubic-inch V-8 crate engine from BluePrint Engines that produces 741 horsepower and 703 pound-feet of torque. The engine pairs with a Bowler automatic gearbox and breathes through SpinTech mufflers. Deep red paint covers the powerplant, which includes an EFI intake, machined valve covers, and fabricated stainless-steel headers.
CAL modified an Art Morrison chassis with upturned rear rails and RideTech coil-overs to lower the ride height. Raised center crossmembers keep components above the scrub line for drivability on rough roads. The builder reshaped quarter panels, taillight bezels, and the front grille surround. Custom dark paint and nickel plating from Advanced Plating accent the body. Leading Edge Machine and Design created one-off staggered wheels matching the paint.
The interior combines classic styling with modern systems. CAL and Santana Interior Design fitted a billet-machined center console with hidden cupholders under a slidable armrest. Dakota Digital instrumentation and Vintage Air climate control complete the cabin. The car was shown at SEMA.
