Vehicle Description
Sometimes you see a car that stops you in your tracks and makes you
think! This 1957 Chevrolet 150 Delivery is one of those vehicles.
This is a vehicle that even makes some knowledgeable enthusiasts
say "a 1957 Chevy what?" The Window Delivery is neither a Nomad nor
a Handyman wagon and was often special ordered for fleet use.
According to the owner, this gorgeous example was one of 92 ordered
by the government for fleet use. This car saw use as for the Soil
Conservation Services section of the United States Department of
Agriculture before being sold to the public.
Prior to restoration, when this car was found the original Dept. of
Agriculture lettering could be seen on the car, as shown in the
pictures. Repainted during the restoration back to its original
Olive Drab color, the owner of the car opted to have the government
signage reproduced on easily removable door magnets. With the
restoration completed in 2015, this car has traveled just 1,122
miles since it was built! Sitting on a classic set of GM Rally
wheels, this wagon has a unique stance. It has a great look to it,
and the upward-opening rear hatch coupled with only two doors is
sure to draw a crowd and create some confusion at any event.
The inside has been kept largely true to original form-perhaps the
only way to go on a unique vehicle such as this. Adding to the
directly utilitarian look of the car is the single bench seat in
place, with the entire rear of the car being dedicated for cargo
space! We think this is a really cool feature, because it is rare
that you see a utility-purpose vehicle like this restored to such a
high degree. The only major variation from the original interior
look is the addition of a Custom Autosound aftermarket radio that
looks original, but functions like a modern unit.
Originally a six-cylinder three-speed manual car, someone took it
upon themselves to change this bad boy over to a 283 V8 and 4-speed
manual long before the current owner restored it. The drivetrain
components were gone through and rebuilt during the frame off
restoration. This car drives like a dream, and has plenty of power
to get up and move! Driving this car is a blast simply because you
would never expect a wagon to be this much fun. Additionally, it
has power steering, a dual reservoir master cylinder, and 3.08 rear
gears. This car looks great, sounds great, and is definitely
something nobody else has!
Whether you've been searching for one for a while, or you're simply
looking for a Tri-Five Chevy that is totally unique and different,
this Window Delivery may just fit the bill! With ample rear cargo
space, tons of rear visibility, and unique history, this is a
one-of-a-kind car that would be great for a fun weekend
cruiser.
