Vehicle Description
The 1957 Chevrolet 150 is meant to be a great cruising classic. So
while you have a true two-tone classic style, there are also more
modern upgrades like air conditioning, an overdrive transmission, a
Bluetooth stereo, and proper V8 power. So dig into the details on a
car with legendary style and modern appeal.
The paint sets the character for the whole car. After all, the
two-tone Tri-Five Chevys are true classics. But this one is
uniquely done in India Ivory (a 1950s color) and Hugger Orange (a
muscle car era legend). So it's subtly telling you this is an
updated classic and you're going to enjoy driving it. The Rally
wheels, polished dual exhaust tips, and crystal clear headlights
also add to this sporty upgraded attitude. But more than
performance, make sure you take some time to look at how it gets
the fundamentals correct. All the lines are clean, the doors close
with authority, the glass is clear, and the weather stripping is
pliable. The iconic front end continues to have a big shine on the
bumper/grille combo you know so well. And we love how the 150
model's trim dividing the two-tone is taken from the '55 Bel Air.
So it makes for quite a distinct style.
The interior was redone with an eye for being clean and
comfortable. Two wide rows of bench seats have a classic look, but
now they have the advantage of comfy fabric inserts for where you
sit. The two-tone beige and tan are repeated on the door panels,
and even the floor mats were done to coordinate. It's a thoughtful
presentation right down to details, like the working dome light and
clock. You have the right comfort upgrades, like a Pioneer AM/FM/CD
stereo with Bluetooth, cup holders, and cold-blowing air
conditioning. But this was also made to give you a proper cruiser
feeling. That's why you have been upgraded with a Lecarra steering
wheel, a tilt steering column, auxiliary readouts, a B&M floor
shifter, and a very cool tach on the A-pillar.
The engine bay has the clean and sturdy look of a proper
investment. And you can really tell the 350 cubic-inch V8 heart at
the center has been upgraded for serious power. It has a beefy look
with the Black Chevy valve covers and a matching air grabber. And
the hoses, belts, and wires look tidy. As you dig deeper, you'll
spot performance enhancements like an Edelbrock four-barrel
carburetor, an Edelbrock performer Intake, an Accel SuperCoil
distributor, and headers feeding a throaty dual exhaust. The motor
fires up readily like a car that wants to hit the road. And that's
easy to do thanks to a 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission with
highway-friendly overdrive. There's also power steering, power
brakes, front discs, and rear traction bars.
This is a true custom creation that likes to make the classic
Tri-Five a great Chevy to cruise on today's roads. Call
