TRI-5, 283 V8, A/C, PWR STEER/BRAKE, TAKEN CARE OF, RUN/DRIVE GR8!!

This 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air is correct where it counts (like the hardtop with bright trim), upgraded where you want it (like the A/C interior), and a driver where you'll love it (like the V8 with four-speed). So this is the classic that delivers on the iconic appearance while leaving you wanting for nothing.

While we love all Tri-Five Chevys, we 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, it's an American icon. Of course, it also helps to have a car that looks this distinctive. The bright turquoise with even brighter white roof makes this a beacon for attention while also keeping a fine '50-style presentation. Also, when the light is just right, the bright work comes to life accenting the lines that give this hardtop its true wow factor. You already know that chrome isn't cheap, and the '57 is literally covered in it. So one of the first things to make sure is when shopping for one of these icons is that all the trim is complete and present as it is here (there are even extra pieces that come with the sale.) In fact, this is a car that represents the '50s so well that even the wheel covers are correct.

The blue turquoise of the exterior is utilized again inside for the dash, carpeting, and even the steering wheel. Plus, it's joined by a textured dark blue and black insert on the seats and door panels. It makes for an outstanding coordinated total presentation. There are crisp, clean gauges behind the highly stylized Bel Air steering wheel. Plus, the rest of the chrome on the dash looks amazing and complete, which is exactly what you want in an icon like this. But more than just look great, this one has the benefit of genuine comfort and convenience. It comes from nice subtle upgrades, like the AM/FM/cassette player that looks like a classic radio but really is a modern stereo with digital tuner. Since a Bel Air is meant for cruising, you have modern R134a air conditioning to keep you comfortable even when the windows are down.

Part of what makes these cars a legend is that the Tri-Fives were the ones to introduce the Chevy small block V8. So you'll be happy to lift the hood to reveal a 283 cubic-inch motor. It has a great original-style presentation on places like the valve covers, but it's also upgraded exactly in the right places. For example, you have a newer brake booster, master cylinder, alternator, and compressor. Plus, the Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor inhales deeper for better power. The glasspack-style dual exhaust gives this V8 classic the growl we expect. Out on the road, you'll enjoy the classic car experience while being connected tot he three-speed manual transmission, which allows you to take full control over the small block and its soundtrack. Plus, with power steering and front disc brakes, this is truly an easy anytime/anywhere cruiser.

The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and maintenance records, as well as extra components like a radio, car cover, and valuable extra trim pieces. This is the icon you love, and it even lets you cruise in A/C comfort. So you know you need to hurry if you don't want to miss out on something this special. Call now!
