In terms of bucket list vehicles when it comes to car collections,
there are few cars that are more universally lusted after than a
Tri-Five Chevy. One look at this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air, and it's
not hard to understand why it has become one of the most popular
and recognizable cars in automotive history. This particular car
has been fully repainted in what appears to be a modern version of
the original 1957 color, Matador Red. This eye-catching hue appears
more reddish in photos and a bit more orange in person and in
direct sunlight. That vibrant color matched with a lowered
suspension consisting of an independent front and solid axle rear,
complete with a GM 55P dropout rear end, all make for one heck of a
showstopper.
Inside, the dashboard, steering wheel, and headliner match the
car's enigmatic exterior. The front and rear bench seats, along
with the door panels, sport a red and black combination with the
classic alligator pattern originally seen in 1957. The dash appears
just as it did when this car was new. With its three-gauge setup,
analog clock, and gold 'Bel Air' badging, you can feel yourself
traveling back in time with every mile behind the wheel.
Under the hood, we find a 265 cubic-inch V-8 topped by a single
old-school Rochester four-barrel carburetor and an Edelbrock
intake. Power is then sent through a two-speed Powerglide automatic
transmission that, although period correct, is not original to the
car, which makes it a guilt-free endeavor if an upgrade was ever
desired by its future owner.
