1955 Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 Belair Description

Previous owner put under 1000 miles on this car. I added about 1500 miles . Previous owner had engine and transmission rebuilt. Engine leaks from the rear. Transmission has seal leaks.Will need attention in these areas.Car does have imperfections such as tail light, small putty break and trunk seal area. See pics . Air shocks leak down. They need to be aired up or the pipes will rub. Block #02222 53 T 55F Car was stored in a leaking garage 40 years. Water ran in from maybe a cracked window or seal. It done damage to inside frame by passenger windowarea or behind seat as I remember. I had seat and carpet out to insulate floor. Bondo there.
