Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to digitally present
this 1957 Chevrolet 150 Black Widow Tribute.The Black Widow is one
of the most fascinating legends in Chevrolet's racing history. In
June of 1957, the Automobile Manufacturers Association banned
automakers from officially participating in racing. Publicly, GM
and others complied - but behind the scenes, Chevrolet kept the
spirit alive. Former Hudson race engineer Vince Piggins set up
operations under SEDCO (Southern Engineering and Development Co.)
at Nalley Chevrolet in Atlanta, turning humble Chevy 150 sedans
into NASCAR terrors. Known as "Black Widows," these lightweight,
stripped-down cars became dominant on the track, and to this day
remain a point of pride and heated debate among Chevrolet
enthusiasts.This tribute to that history takes the Black Widow
concept into the modern era. Under the hood sits a supercharged
6.2L LSA V8 - the same powerplant found in the Camaro ZL1 and
Cadillac CTS-V - delivering modern muscle far beyond anything
possible in 1957. Paired with a Tremec 6-speed manual transmission,
this '57 combines raw horsepower with an engaging, driver-focused
experience.Supporting the power are modern conveniences that make
this car as usable as it is thrilling:Power steering for smooth
maneuverabilityPower brakes for confident stoppingAM/FM radio for
cruising comfortFinished in the distinctive Black Widow tribute
livery, this Chevrolet 150 captures the look of a NASCAR legend
while bringing modern engineering to the mix. It's both a
respectful nod to history and a bold reimagining of what the Black
Widow could be today.This 1957 Chevrolet 150 Black Widow Tribute is
