Rock out to "White Lightning" while rolling in this beautiful Tri-Five Chevy!

Celebrity-owned cars always hold a little extra value among collectors, and that is especially the case when a car was previously owned by an iconic legend. That's exactly what we have here with this gorgeous 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air that was previously in the collection of the late country music star, George Jones. Not surprisingly, Jones' fully restored Tri-Five Chevy is up for sale in the Nashville area through Vintage Planet.

While Jones was a country music legend, the Tri-Five Chevy still is an automotive legend, and this teal and white '55 Chevy is a stunning example of this car's beauty. Its flawless condition is a result of a complete frame-off restoration, and this car is definitely ready to win some car show awards. 

Complementing its looks is a period-correct 265 CID V8 backed by an automatic transmission, which means that this car is ready for cruising. This Bel Air is about as stock as you'll see a Tri-Five these days, but a few notable upgrades include the power steering, air conditioning and satellite radio – so you can tune into the all the country music stations 

The listing says that Jones' ownership is "clearly documented," but the only documentation shown in these pictures is his autograph on the car's original owner's guide. Jones passed away in 2013.
