1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2 Door Post Sedan Restro Rod. Complete frame off rebuild, Texas car that had very little rust at rebuild. Not a show car, but a very good and reliable driver. However, it does show well and has won a couple trophies, Lots of good comments and thumbs up from the public. Paint and trim is an 8 out of 10 and body gaps are average and presentable. 327 SBC with mild cam, roller rockers and Edelbrock ProFlow 4 fuel injection.

Just over 2000 miles since finished so the bugs are pretty much all worked out and it is ready for the road. You would really have to look hard to find another in better condition. I have attached alot of pictures, but if you have any questions, please contact me and I will help in any way I can. Will be more than happy to assist with getting the car shipped upon sale.
