Vehicle Description
An icon in American automotive design known throughout the world!
Considered the junior Cadillac to consumers, it possessed the
classic 1950's rear fins, plenty of trim to polish from front to
back, and a very handsome look overall! Chevrolet called it "Sweet,
Smooth, and Sassy!" in their advertising copy. Words that continue
to ring true today, and a perfect embodiment of young mid-Fifties
America! The Bel Air was a full-size automobile that was produced
from 1950-1981 by the Chevrolet division of General Motors and
molded well to each generation that it was produced in. With only
two door hardtop variants being produced for the first three
production years, the idea of keeping it a model changed along the
way as it became a trim level. Starting 1953, Chevrolet continued
the Bel Air name but as a unique body shape or as a premium trim
that was applied to many different body styles. This continued
until the discontinuation of the highly recognized name tag until
1975, but even then it was still produced in Canada for another six
years. This model has become one of the most recognizable models in
auto shows and continues to be one of the greats of the earlier
years of the automotive.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air
convertible. The Red paint certainly has the Bel Air pop when you
see it with the newer White fully functioning power top. The
convertible Bel Air definitely sets this one apart. The interior
has an updated Tan leather with matching red Chevrolet logos sewn
into the seats. The body is in great shape and the chrome bumpers
and accent pieces have held their shine and appearance. Also
updated were the brakes, with front disc as well as Weld Racing
wheels and Pirelli four season tires. The engine is a Chevy small
block, with the 2-speed automatic transmission. The car has power
steering, power brakes, air conditioning, optima battery, chrome
dress up kit on the engine and more. The car was just given over
$3,000 in service work. It received new ball joints, new front
shocks, new aftermarket transmission cooler. It is something
special to see a car with this much cache driving down the road
just like it did the 50's, this is one that still gives you the
look and all the good feelings that come along with this Bel
Air.
