Description of 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 |
This 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air has a terrific two-tone look inside and out. And since this is the kind of icon that you'll want to cruise everywhere, there have even been some nice upgrades, like period-correct V8 power and an overdrive transmission. While we love all Tri-Five Chevys, we also all know the '57 is king. With the jet-inspired ornaments on the hood, wide "V" under the Chevrolet badging, and the extra long tailfin trim make this an American icon. Of course, it also helps to have a car that looks this distinctive. The Candy Apple Red is a deeper tone than what you could get from the factory, and it really shows off a gloss that will let you drive this one with pride on sunny days. And the white roof is the ideal partner for a '50s-style two-tone. These Chevys are known for their brightwork, and so it great to have it complete everywhere from the iconic front end, to the window trim that defines this four-door sedan. As a true classic cruiser, it's nice to have details, like the wire wheel covers and rear fender skirts. Plus, there's just an overall quality feel, right down to the solid action of the doors. The two-tone red and white theme continues inside. It's a thoughtfully done custom presentation with the pattern on the seat inserts matching the doors. So it's the kind of package that will make it nice to share this sedan with family and friends. There are crisp gauges behind the highly stylized Bel Air steering wheel. Plus, the full brightwork of the dash is quite complete. The radio has even been upgraded to a retro-style AM/FM digital tuner with iPod input, so everyone can get their favorite cruising music. Part of what makes these cars a legend is that the Tri-Fives were the ones to introduce the Chevy small block V8. So while this was born a six-cylinder car, you'll really love that they took the time to source an era-correct 283 cubic-inch V8. In fact, it has the kind of factory-style presentation that most people will just assume it has been in here since day one. It fires up nicely, and so it's an ideal classic car to take for a nice drive. And that's before we even mention the upgrades like power steering and modern Hankook tires. Plus, the 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission means highway-friendly overdrive so you can travel near or far with ease. Here's an iconic Bel Air upgraded to a V8 and overdrive. This is the best of everything, and since the price is so affordable, you know you need to hurry to grab this deal. Call today!!! |
