A full-sized American classic with undeniable road presence, this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air harnesses the perfect fusion of vintage styling and muscle car performance beneath its clean white exterior. The smooth body demonstrates the quality of craftsmanship with gleaming chrome accents throughout, from the iconic front grille to the perfectly positioned gold Chevrolet emblems on both hood and trunk. The factory-style wheel covers add authentic period flair, while the 14-inch wheels wrapped in 215/70R14 Nexen tires provide the perfect stance for this cruiser. Dual exhaust tips peek out from the rear, subtly announcing the enhanced performance lurking within this classic two-door coupe.
The traditional black and red interior creates a bold, sporty atmosphere that perfectly complements the exterior. Correct-style vinyl and cloth upholstery covers the bench seat, paired with matching door panels and a red vinyl headliner. The dash houses custom VDO gauges for accurate performance monitoring, while a Hurst floor shifter puts full control at your fingertips. Modern additions include front seatbelts for safety without compromising the authentic feel of the cabin. The stock AM radio maintains period correctness, and the Bel Air rubber floor mats protect the floors while adding a factory-correct detail to this thoughtfully refreshed interior.
A balanced and blueprinted 350 cubic inch V8 engine provides substantial power, rebuilt just 2,999 miles ago and fed by dual Edelbrock four-barrel carburetors atop an Edelbrock intake manifold. The four-speed manual transmission delivers precise gear changes through the Hurst shifter. Long tube headers flow into a Borla dual exhaust system with manual cutouts for an adjustable exhaust note. The suspension features front coil springs with a sway bar and rear leaf springs with traction bars, while the Ford 9-inch limited-slip rear end puts power to the pavement with authority. Power disc brakes up front provide excellent stopping power for this enhanced classic.
