Vehicle description
This first-of-its-kind custom 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air is powered by a hydrogen-fueled 5.7-liter Gen 3 HEMI V8 engine and is equipped with an Edelbrock 2650 supercharger, delivering 500hp. The engine was built by Mike Copeland, a veteran GM engineer and CEO of Arrington Performance and is backed by a TCI 4-speed automatic transmission. The Cherry Red exterior is complemented by a red and black interior. The hydrogen tank, located in the trunk, averages 200 miles per fill-up. Other features include air conditioning, power steering, CPP power brakes and Weld wheels. The project, sponsored by CRC Industries, was built by racing legends Clay Millican, an NHRA Top Fuel World Champion, as well as Jeff Lutz from "Street Outlaws" and Lutz Race Cars. The entire hammer price will benefit the TechForce Foundation through the CRC Build for the Future Scholarship Program, allowing at least 10 deserving students to receive technical trade school scholarships. The higher the sale, the more scholarships will be awarded. TechForce Foundation is a national nonprofit 501(c)(3) whose mission is to guide students through education and into careers as professional technicians. The foundation was formed to address the shortage of skilled labor in today's workforce and works to change perceptions of this evolving "new collar" STEM career, providing local career exploration and workforce development programs. CRC Industries has proudly supported TechForce and its mission over the last decade. ** 100% OF HAMMER PRICE TO BENEFIT THE TECHFORCE FOUNDATION THROUGH THE CRC BUILD FOR THE FUTURE SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM ** WILL BE SOLD AT APPROXIMATELY X:XX P.M.
