50 MILLIONTH GM CAR MYSTERY ON 1955 CHEVY BEL AIR A TRIBUTE

An iconic part of General Motors history has now been preserved by the team at Snodgrass Chevy Restoration in their 50 Millionth GM Tribute. Take a look at the flawless replica of the 50 millionth car to go across the assembly line at General Motors on November 23rd 1954. With over $100,000 of 24k gold plated chrome through out the interior and exterior of the 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air, this was an absolute showstopper at the Detroit Autorama 2024. Listen to the story and decide for yourself on what you think happened to the actual 50 millionth car made by GM and why were there three gold Bel Airs made in 1954!

A nice exhibit. It needs to go into a museum. Let me know where it ends up so I can see it in person.!

The Facebook book 1995 Chevrolet 150,000,000th GM gold car will have all the information

I remember as a child going on a tour of the Brown, Lipe,& Chapin plant in Syracuse NY, where they chrome plated GM auto parts and they had the 50 Millionth car on display, so the I guess it made it out of Flint. The car was displayed out doors, like nothing extra special. Inside the plant they were doing bumpers and hub caps that night by the hundreds an hour.That's when GM made it all in the USA.

movie colorists who are trying to determine original color from a black and white film print simply take black and white photos of a known color and then study the shade of grey to see if the color is correct. the photo shown on the history board looks red to me.

[@smittywood-wp6he]

Well a recreation so where are the original ones

[@RanasRadar]

Exactly! Who is going to solve the mystery ?

[@smittywood-wp6he]

Never heard of this unicorn

[@user-nk7qz5bd5h]

It's in the family located in North Carolina. My Father who passed away in 2011 owned the car every since I was a child

[@lars277]

This gold 55 was not built by GM or Chevrolet. This is a con, a ruse, and a grift.

[@RanasRadar]

No this is a replica built as a tribute to the actual 50millionth GM

[@user-rx7ns4re9u]

This car may have my old 55 headlights that were built without aiming lugs

[@user-rx7ns4re9u]

Steve Blades is the man

[@roberthayes6329]

Guess you can't listen. Also, gold or not it was Definitely built by Chevrolet in Flint Michigan. This is a "Tribute" car. Next time maybe watch and listen before you start your ignorance.

[@markjohnston3502]

It is a replica. Watch the video.

[@kevinsmith7697]

Not the actual car?!?!? Still bad ass!!! Definitely worthy!! I vote yes for Ridler award!!!! 🫡🇺🇸

[@RanasRadar]

No the actual car is missing I think it’s somewhere out there but these guys did a phenomenal job in bringing history to us and showing us what the car actually looked like.
