1957 Chevrolet Bel-Air Sedan� Super solid fully restored iconic
bowtie India Ivory over Tropical Turquoise exterior and blue vinyl
and cloth interior 283 CID V-8 engine Two-speed Powerglide
automatic transmission Rare factory Harrison/GM air-conditioning
Rare optional equipment - factory power steering, power brakes,
power windows and power front seat Dual cowl spotlights, dual rear
antennas and rear fender skirts� More than once, Chevy pitched its
products as offering Cadillac features at Chevrolet prices. At
MotoeXotica Classic Cars, we have the perfect example of this
philosophy in a 1957 Chevrolet Bel-Air Sedan. This Bel-Air is
wonderfully presented with options one never sees; including
factory air conditioning, power steering, power brakes, power
windows, dual spot-lights, and dual antennas. One of the most
recognized icons in the automotive industry, the '57 Bel Air
introduced minor improvements from the previous year like more
chrome and featured a golden grille set off with a heavy chrome bar
that included parking lights. The rear fins were capped with chrome
moldings and highlighted with anodized aluminum side trim panels.
The fuel-filler door was even concealed in the left rear chrome fin
to clean up the lines of the car. Made in GM's Kansas City, Kansas
assembly plant, this example came to us fully restored and ready to
drive or win trophies. Finished in India Ivory over Tropical
Turquoise, this car looks fantastic! The paint and trim are in
excellent condition. The car's windows are intact and clear and
look great. The sedan's lights are clear, in one piece and in very
good order. The car rolls on wide whitewall tires with factory
wheel covers and all of its body panels are straight and solid,
including shiny bumpers. The engine bay is very tidy and the
battery looks new. Extra exterior features include dual cowl
spotlights, dual rear antennas and rear fenders skirts. It is the
driver convenience features that help set this car apart for almost
any other '57 Bel-Air out there. This car comes with rare factory
Harrison/GM air-conditioning, power steering, power brakes, power
windows and power front bench seat! Under the hood is a 283 CID V-8
engine, an increase in displacement from the 265 CID V-8 and this
283 is connected to a Powerglide two-speed automatic transmission.
Fully capable of cruising at todays highway speeds and then some!
Inside, the two-tone blue cloth and vinyl interior is stunning. The
two-tone blue bench seats are in excellent condition while the blue
carpet is in very good order, as is the matching headliner. The
two-tone blue metal instrument panel is in excellent order, as is
the two-spoke steering wheel and inner door panels. The mirror
glass looks very good, as does the shifter. Rounding out the
interior is a factory AM radio and a clock. The�Chevrolet
Bel-Air�was a�full-size car�produced by�Chevrolet�for the
1950-1981�model years. Initially only the two-door hardtops in the
Chevrolet model range were designated with the Bel-Air name from
1950 to 1952, as distinct from the Styleline and Fleetline models
for the remainder of the range. With the 1953 model year, the
Bel-Air name was changed from a designation for a unique body shape
to a premium level of trim applied across a number of body styles.
The 1957 Bel-Air is among the most recognizable American cars of
all time; well-maintained examples, especially�Sport
Coupes�and�Convertibles, which are highly sought after by
collectors and enthusiasts. They are roomy, with tastefully
restrained, period use tail fins and chrome. Competition to this
Bel-Air in 1957 included Dodge's Coronet Red Ram V-8, Ford's
Fairlane 500 Town Sedan, Hudson's Hornet Super Sedan and Nash's
Ambassador Super Sedan. This car is currently located at our
facility in St. Louis, Missouri. Current mileage on the odometer
shows 881 miles. It is sold as is, where is, on a clean and clear,
mileage exempt title. GET OUT AND DRIVE!!! VIN: VC57K153619 Note:
