A gleaming chrome testament to a bygone era in American history, the 1957 Chevrolet Bel-Air is one of the most iconic cars ever built. Often considered the quintessential 1950s automobile, the 1957 Bel-Air featured plenty of styling cues from the era without going overboard: distinctive hood ornaments, big tailfins, fender skirts, two-tone bright colors, dips behind the quarter windows, a hidden gas cap, and, of course, plenty of chrome. This specific 1957 Bel-Air collects all those elements and wraps them all together in a rare 4-door hardtop configuration, and with a crate-ready powertrain installed, it's ready to hit the road at the turn of a key. Popping open the ornate hood reveals a crate 350 C.I. Chevrolet V8 equipped with a 4-barrel carburetor, and with only 4,000 miles logged on the engine since installation, it's got plenty of life left in it! Torque is put to the pavement through a 3-speed automatic transmission, which shifts smoothly and seamlessly as this Bel Air cruises down main street. Presented in an attractive, good looking black-over-white paint scheme, this '57 Bel-Air sticks out like a sore thumb with its characteristic gilled tailfin trim and golden trim accents. Cursive "Chevrolet" script and wide V emblems on both the hood and the rear deck also let you know what exactly you're driving! The floors, frame rails, trunk and door jambs on this sweet '57 Chevy are also in great shape, and they're all rock solid. Opening the twin doors reveals a show-quality two-tone black and gray interior, with comfy bench seats that are dressed up in classic 50s patterns. The dashboard's factory gauges and accessories are dressed up in stylized chrome, and a custom center stack houses an aftermarket AM/FM radio. Options on this gleaming '57 Chevy include power steering, power brakes, front disc brakes, an aluminum radiator, an electric cooling fan, Vintage Air A/C, a heater, dual antennas, and a mean-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on a sleek set of 15" chrome 5-spoke wheels for a hot-rodded appearance that's tough to beat! A single turn of the key starts that 350 V8 right up, ensuring that this Chevy is ready to cruise at a moment's notice. This is your chance to own a true American icon, so don't let it pass you by!
