1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 454ci

No Reserve. This beautiful build offers modern high performance and amenities while faithfully preserving the look and character that makes the 57 Chevy an automotive icon. The Bowtie heritage is exemplified with a big block 454 V8 engine. It sports an Edelbrock 4-barrel on a Weiand aluminum intake. Exhaust exits through coated headers and custom dual pipes with Flowmaster mufflers. The engine room is beautifully detailed with polished valve covers and air cleaner, smoothed firewall, aluminum radiator, and billet pulleys. Even the Vintage Air compressor is polished, and it does a great job of cooling the cabin. The interior is finished in exotic burgundy leather with a custom center console. Custom lighting provides a nice ambience and is great for shows as well. The trunk is upholstered to match. The sheetmetal is straight and smooth, and the mirror-like black finish contrasts beautifully with the original-style chrome and iconic Bel Air trim. A smoothed frame highlights a completely detailed undercarriage featuring tubular A-arms and a Ford 9-inch rear axle with 3.55 gears. Billet Specialties forged and polished wheels, 17-inch in the front and 20-inch rears, staggered size performance tires, and custom suspension mods give the car a nice rake. And every inch is painted, polished, or plated. Few cars are more revered as classics than the 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Sport Coupe. This beautiful restomod offers modern performance and amenities while faithfully preserving the look and character that makes it an automotive icon.454ci Big Block V8 EngineEdelbrock 4-barrel CarburetorPolished Weiand IntakeCeramic Coated HeadersPolished Valve CoversPolished Pulley System700R4 4-speed Automatic TransmissionFord 9-inch Rear Axle with 3.55 GearsLokar Floor ShifterBlack Exterior PaintCustom Burgundy Leather Interior with Red CarpetingAir Conditioning by Vintage AirCustom Center ConsoleFully Upholstered TrunkRear Mounted Battery4-wheel Power Disc BrakesBillet Specialties Forged and Polished 5-spoke Wheels225/50R17 and 265/50R20 High Performance TiresWhy you should buy it: 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air is iconic.
