Meet Ringo Starr's 1957 Chevy Customized by The Batmobile Guy
This wasn't your average Chevy. Forget the four-door family hauler. Ringo's Bel Air was a sleek black coupe, designed to grab attention wherever it went. Open the door and you'd be greeted by a luxurious black and yellow leather interior – a far cry from the vinyl seats most cars sported back in the day.
Plus, for that extra touch of cool, the exhaust pipes weren't hidden away under the car. Instead, you can find on the sides.
Power Under the Hood.
Under the hood? Well, Ringo wasn't one for sluggish rides.
This Bel Air packed a serious wallop with a 350 cubic inch engine and a 3-speed manual transmission. In layman's terms, that means this Chevy had enough power to get Ringo wherever he needed to go, fast.
According to classic.com, Ringo's very Bel Air was auctioned for $64,557! So, Ringo's Chevy wasn't just impressive, it was a true collector's item!
