1957 Chevrolet 210

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

In 1957, the Tri-Five Chevrolet era came to a close and brought to market one of the most iconic ‘50s American vehicles, the 1957 Chevy Bel Air. It had large tailfins, a "twin rocket" hood design, lots of chrome, upscale interiors, and a wide range of engines. It was also available in numerous body styles — including two-door sedans, coupes, and convertibles, which are desirable and sought after by enthusiasts and collectors so much that many four-door models have been painstakingly converted over the years.

This ‘57 Chevy started life as a 210 four-door sedan and was converted to a two-door roadster as part of a multi-year refurbishment and modification process carried out under current ownership. At that time, the frame was reinforced, the B-pillars were moved back, the floors were replaced, and a convertible windshield frame and doors were installed. No convertible top or frame is fitted.

The body has been refinished in a black cherry metallic with Bel Air badging and trim, and the custom interior is trimmed in gray and tweed upholstery with marine-grade materials. Power comes from a 350ci V8 that has been fitted with an Edelbrock camshaft, cylinder heads, intake manifold, and carburetor. Additional details include a five-speed manual transmission, a hydraulic clutch, front disc brakes, aftermarket sway bars, 15” steel wheels, aftermarket instrumentation, a retro-style radio, and front and rear center consoles with integrated cupholders.
