this beautiful car!!! Automotive History: The Chevrolet Two-Ten, or
210 was the midrange model of the Chevrolet car from 1953 to 1957.
It took its name by shortening the production series number (2100)
by one digit in order to capitalize on the 1950s trend toward
numerical auto names. The numerical designation '"210"' was also
sporadically used in company literature. It replaced the Styleline
DeLuxe model available in previous years. The Two-Ten was
discontinued after the 1957 model year to be replaced by the
Biscayne The Two-Ten series, introduced for the 1953 model year,
replaced the Styleline DeLuxe series. It was actually the
best-selling Chevrolet model during 1953 and 54, offering a balance
of style and luxury appointments unavailable in the base 150
series, but was less costly than the glitzy Bel Air. Two-Tens
offered the widest choice of body styles for 1953, including a
convertible, Sport Coupe hardtop, two- and four-door sedans, and
four-door station wagons. Chevrolet re-introduced the Two-Ten Sport
Coupe hardtop in the middle of the 1955 model year, and also added
a four-door Two-Ten hardtop Sport Sedan for 1956. They were only
about $100.00 cheaper than the Bel Airs. Unlike the 150 series,
Two-Tens were always available with the same luxury options as the
Bel Air, including the Powerglide automatic transmission. The
Two-Ten Townsman was the top station wagon model offered in 1953,
but the Townsman was moved up to the Bel Air series for 1954, only
to return to the Two-Ten for 1955. The lower-priced Handyman
station wagon, a four-door model in 1953-54, became a two-door for
1955-57. Both were joined by a nine-passenger Beauville four-door
wagon in 1956-57.
