1954 Chevrolet Bel Air 540 Big Block Build Project
Mike Walker invested 20 years into building his 1954 Chevy Bel Air
All of us are aware of a buddy who has spent years, maybe decades, to get his hot rod just right. In fact, each of us has probably spent way too many years trying to get our favorite ride on the road, but in the end we all believe it was time well spent.
Mike Walker of Wenatchee, Washington, developed a liking for the 1054 Chevy back in the day as a result of his high school buddy who had a post-war Chevy. Moving forward, well a few years, a friend of Mike’s found the 3,200-pound car, and knowing he wanted one turned him onto the Bel Air. The future project was sitting in a barn near Colville, Washington. The previous owner had their own ideas on hot rodding the ol’ Chevy by removing the 235-inch Stovebolt and replacing it with a 283 small-block hooked up to a non-functioning Powerglide. While the body was straight the interior was long gone but, nonetheless, it caught his eye sitting there on Cragar wheels. (And why wouldn’t it!)

Shame there's no clip of her running, would have loved to hear that motor! Beautiful resto unbelievable detail to the work.
Wow. Watching your restorations has me looking for a beautiful antique to park in my garage again. Thank you for posting.
That’s my favorite Chevy I have always loved that car from my childhood. Omg it turned out beautiful.
What an absolutely gorgeous build. The ultimate strong frame combined with an equally strong engine blended together with a beautifully crafted light body. A recipe for fun and success. I love restomods. Congratulations on the perfect build. The body has all the curves in the right places.
Would be nice to have. Beautiful car.
I have a 52 Style line that is a daily driver. I would live to have a shop like that. And the money. I love what you did with details to the underneath of the body and the frame. Beautiful build.
This ride makes me wish I had a bank full of money, very nice build.
My favorite is the 1953, I love the look of " Real Paint." Not Shiny Plastic."
My fav is traditional, White up top, Canary Yellow body, Gray cloth inside, straight 6 a baby blue bow ties on the hub caps.
Well done on the traditional look...love that Real Paint ✌🤓🤑
Looking great just love them oldies , I was fourteen when the car was New what a beautiful rebuild.
Gorgeous hotrod I like the 49-54 bodystyles alot more then Tri-Five eta Chevys
Beautiful ! I was conceived in the same car same color , at Cherry beach in Toronto , My Glorious Mother says it is Why I love cars and Especially Chevrolet's . .. She says Its In my Blood . and it was due to the ol Man Looking like Buddy Holly .
AWESOME Hot Rod . Reminds me of my old 54 Pontiac i had. NOT quite as nice as THIS one of course but it was the same colour scheme. BEAUTIFUL JOB PEOPLE !!!!

Nice wY to spend 60gs. Love it
Bel Air always has been my favorite car. Better is a1954 the year I was born!
My Uncle had one of these new, it was the slowest accelerating car I've ever ridden in!
Not this one, I am sure of it.
I love 54's and I'm in love with this beauty nice job people
Perfect 👌
When bike got v8 442 big block on trike motorcycle just amazing project
👍
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😍
I was worried they wouldn't be able to get the driveshaft in. lol
All that awesome,and hard work and then it gets a baby blue coat? Dang man that’s unfortunate. But awesome job.
The grill is the only thing I don't like about this car would have stuck with the original 4 bullet grill. But the rest is great.
@Big Wheel beautiful car, this vehicle remind me when I was a kid my father picks me up at school in the Dominican Republic, my father bought it for $ 300 dollar 0n 1960 in New York and send it to the Dominican Republic and we used until 1970 when he moved to USA. I love this Chevy.
✌🇧🇷👏👍
To bad didn't change the color, buy nice build
hot dayum a 54
That's all pretty and nice, but will the car ever be driven, I am at an age where I have been to 100s of car shows and seen plenty of these Hot Rod Toys, and the owners literally do not even start them, because if they did the heat from the engine would discolor the manifolds, all show and no go and that would mean they might lose, I would have liked to see how that car looked stock right from the factory, to me that is the true art, this car has been over engineered is there even anything original from the car,
Joe Marco my thoughts exactly. The only thing even remotely resembling a 54 Chevy, is the outline of the body.
Joe Marco “ so, I’m presuming you won’t be looking at these types of videos anymore!”
Read all the comments, most are jealous ( including mine). The only thing I would change is the name on the title.
I love the 54 Chev, but messing with the grill was a bad decision.
54s are near perfect in stock form.
This proves all the money on the planet can't buy good taste.
was the top chopped at all
Aujourd'hui on a tellement mieux a offrir a nos ancienne voitures de meilleurs moteurs qui consomme moin pollue moins roule mieux et plus vite avec de nouveaux chassis pour celle qui sont chassis pour les momo coke c est autre choses une carrosserie tout souder c est la solution
