This 1957 Chevrolet 210 two-door sedan is finished in white over gray and powered by a replacement 454ci V8 paired with a Turbo 400 three-speed automatic transmission and a Ford 9-inch rear axle. Features include a Painless wiring harness, an MSD electronic ignition, an Edelbrock intake manifold, a Holley Dominator 1050 CFM carburetor, an aluminum radiator, power front disc brakes, tubular control arms, coilovers, Cragar wheels, and AutoMeter instrumentation. The car was acquired by the seller in 2021, and subsequent work consisted of changing the distributor curve, replacing the spark plugs, and adjusting valve lash. This 210 is offered with New York registration.
The car is said to have been repainted in white during previous ownership. Features include chrome and gold Bel Air trim, a gold grille, twin wind splits on the hood, dual exterior mirrors, electric wiper motors, and dual exhaust outlets that exit below the rear bumper.
The 15″ five-spoke Cragar wheels are mounted with BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires up front and BFGoodrich Drag Radials out back. The car is equipped with Flaming River rack and pinion steering, rear mini tubs, tubular front control arms, and CalTrac traction bars. Braking is handled by power-assisted front discs and rear drums.
The cabin features front bucket seats and a rear bench upholstered in gray vinyl with channeled cloth inserts joined by a matching dashboard, door panels, and carpets. Equipment includes a B&M floor shifter, Painless wiring harness, lockable glovebox, trunk-mounted battery, and Rockford Fosgate speakers.
The wood three-spoke steering wheel frames a 120-mph speedometer and gauges for fuel level and battery voltage. An AutoMeter tachometer and gauges for oil pressure and coolant temperature are mounted to the top of the dashboard. The five-digit mechanical odometer shows 1k miles, approximately 200 of which were added by the seller. Total mileage is unknown.
The replacement 454ci V8 breathes through an Edelbrock intake manifold and a Holley Dominator 1050 CFM four-barrel carburetor. Additional features reportedly include forged pistons, open-chamber rectangular cylinder heads, solid lifters, an LS7 camshaft, an Aeromotive fuel pump and custom 20-gallon fuel tank, Crane roller rockers, an MSD electronic ignition and spark plug wires, ceramic coated and heat-wrapped headers, and an aluminum radiator. Service in 2021 is said to have included changing the distributor curve, replacing the spark plugs, and adjusting valve lash.
Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a Turbo 400 three-speed automatic transmission and a 9-inch rear axle with a locking differential and 4.11:1 gears. A high stall converter, HP driveshaft, driveshaft loop, transmission cooler, and a custom 3-inch exhaust with Magnaflow mufflers are installed. The front transmission seal is leaking.
The car does not have a title, as it is registered in a state that does not issue titles for a vehicle of its age. It is being sold on New York registration.
