This 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air convertible is finished in white over red vinyl upholstery and powered by a 283ci V8 mated to a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission. Equipment includes a power-operated white convertible top, a Continental spare tire kit, LED taillights, power steering, power brakes, 14″ wheels, Coker Classic whitewall tires, a four-barrel carburetor, a stainless-steel dual exhaust system, and a heater. The car is said to have been refurbished in the early 1990s and was recently acquired by the selling dealer. This Bel Air convertible is now offered with a red top boot and an Ohio title.
The body was reportedly repainted in its current shade of white in 1993. Exterior details include a power-operated white convertible top, a red top boot, a Continental spare tire kit, gold-finished Bel Air trim, hooded headlights, chrome bumpers, twin wind splits, styled tailfins, rear fender skirts, dual mirrors, dual antennas, and LED taillights. The fenders, doors, and rear quarter panels are said to have been replaced under previous ownership, and paint blemishes can be viewed in the gallery.
Silver-painted 14″ steel wheels wear spinner-style covers and are mounted with 205/75 Coker Classic whitewall radial tires. The car is equipped with power steering, and braking is handled by power-assisted drums at all four corners.
The front and rear bench seats are upholstered in red vinyl with textured silver inserts, joined by color-coordinated door panels. Features include a heater, a defroster, an analog clock, and black rubber floor mats. The radio does not function.
The red two-spoke steering wheel features a chrome horn ring and fronts a column gear selector, a 120-mph speedometer, and gauges for fuel level and coolant temperature. The five-digit mechanical odometer shows 4k miles. Total mileage is unknown.
The 283ci V8 features a four-barrel carburetor, a black-painted air cleaner, and an orange-finished intake manifold, engine block, and Chevrolet-script valve covers. An oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission. A stainless-steel dual exhaust system has been installed.
The Ohio title lists a mileage notation of “Odometer Discrepancy.”
