Description for Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 1957

1957 Chevy Bel Air 2 Door Sports Coupe (Hardtop) – Matador Red with Cream Top - Restored To OriginalOVER 75 PHOTOS & VIDEO BELOWThe '57 Chevy Bel Air hardtop sports coupe is one of the most popular cars ever built and this particular expertly restored classic retains the gorgeous original look and the unmistakable growl of the 283 V8. Restored to original - she drives fantastically and feels like a real 1957.This car is absolutely beautiful clean and straight. As you can see in the photos below (including many of the rebuilding process) she's had a complete overhaul and has been kept in immaculate condition. I'm the third owner and since I've had her she has not seen rain. The interior and exterior are as close to flawless as you can get. Color wise -Matador Red and India Ivory are the archetypal '57 Chevrolet colors and although this is a knockout car no matter what color it is painted the bright and shiny matador red only emphasizes the timeless look and keep heads turning as you drive by. All the Bel Air glitz is here including the polished stainless strips along the finsanodized panelsand the beautiful chromed bumpers. Particularly dramatic is Chevrolet's two-tone cloth and vinyl interior in black and red. This period correct "676" interior is flawless. Everything about this vehicle has been expertly restored to stock condition including the steering wheel instruments and all the soft parts. The carpets are protected by slick floor mats with Chevrolet emblems on their faces.Chrome is brilliant. All gauges windows valves etc function properly (except for cigarette lighter and clock which both currently don't work). The photos don't do her justice. This is a real beauty - a true head-turner. - Engine 283 Cu.
