Vehicle Description
This is the best way to bring icons together. This 1957 Chevrolet
210 hardtop represents the best of the classic Tri-Fives on the
outside, and the Corvette LT1 V8 under the hood brings the power
into the modern era. And with the slick overall presentation, you
know this is an amazing deal even before you get impressed with the
details.
It's hard to go wrong with a '57 Chevy hardtop, but this one will
always standout. The black paint was recently buffed to give it an
onyx-like luster that loves the sunlight. These coupes are an
American icon, and so the ones done correctly draw extra attention
at the car shows. That's why there was some time spent getting the
brightwork correct, including freshly re-dipped chrome bumpers,
dual hood bullets, iconic sweeping sides, the addition of the gold
anodized pieces that are hint at the V8 under the hood. They even
made sure this has polished Corvette Rally wheels as another hint
to the upgraded power within.
Tan interiors always look nice and sophisticated against the black
exterior paint. This full package was added later in life, and so
it helps keep everyone comfortable. Plus, the upgraded
AM/FM/cassette stereo really makes this a fine cruiser. But as you
slip behind the upgraded woodgrained steering wheel, and gaze at
the full Classic Instruments panel (including tach), you get the
unmistakable tingle of performance.
The first Tri-Five Chevys were the dawn of the small block, but
they were never given anything as powerful or as turn-key as this.
It's an LT1 fuel-injected V8 out of a '95 Corvette - another great
Chevrolet icon. This is a recent transplant to the engine bay, and
so everything looks quite fresh. It even includes new alternator,
fuel lines, and fuel tank. And when an upgrade like this happens,
you want the right supporting upgrades, too. That's why you have a
large aluminum radiator to keep it running cool, and a four-speed
automatic transmission (with overdrive) to take better advantage of
the power curve. Plus, with front disc brakes, a thick front sway
bar, and traction bars in the rear. This upgraded Tri-Five is ready
for easy cruising AND performance driving.
Rarely do you get an opportunity at such a shining '57 Chevy for
such an affordable price. And with all the investments in upgraded
power, you know this is a deal that will be moving fast. Don't miss
