professional concours-quality nut-and-bolt restoration was recently
completed on this multiple award-winning 1957 Chevrolet 150
two-door sedan. The 150 was the sleeper of the Chevrolet lineup,
devoid of the Bel Air's many visual attractions while still
offering all of the same engine and driveline choices available in
the top-of-the-line model. In this case, power comes via the
optional dual 4-barrel-equipped 283/245 HP V-8 mated to a
column-shifted 3-speed manual transmission. Nobly residing in the
car's immaculate engine compartment, it features dual exhaust and
the factory-original "Bat Wing" air cleaner. Features such as the
new Delco Tar Top battery, correct plating finishes and wiring,
labels and a period-style radiator bug screen are notable underhood
details. Beautifully finished in the attractive combination of
Matador Red and India Ivory, this 150 boasts excellent body prep
and paint and shows outstanding panel fit and finish, properties
that extend to the highly detailed undercarriage. Accessorized with
front and rear bumper guards, front bumper rubber tips and backup
lights, the car rides on new standard-equipment 6.70-14 Firestone
