1957 Chevrolet BelAir
4-Door Hardtop Sports Sedan

The other day we saw a souped up “57 BelAir 4-door post with a 6 liter fuel-injected engine and 6-speed tranny – all for only $68,000!

By contrast, here’s a realistically priced, dependable, driver-quality ’57 BelAir 4-door hardtop. Its correct, recently rebuilt 283 V8 engine and 2-speed Powerglide transmission run great; starting easily, running and driving very well. The exhaust, brakes, suspension and tires are fine and ready for a x-country trip, but a jack or spare are not included. The steering works well with no slop or play. The speedometer was recently rebuilt. The electric system works great, including fuel pump, lights, aftermarket gauges, and more, but the factory radio and clock do not function.

The glass, seals, chrome and stainless are in good condition, with the trim showing the wear of a driver-quality car. The green and white interior is in good condition. The seat skins have some minor wear and the back of the front seat has a couple of holes. The carpet, headliner, door panels, and dash are nice. Aftermarket gauges (water temperature, oil pressure, and fuel) have been tastefully added under the dash.

The body panels are solid and are painted turquoise with a white top. The paint work is very nice driver quality with lots of shine but a few minor imperfections.

The frame and suspension are solid and have recently been detailed to show well.  All 6 body mounts are solid.  The pans appear and sound solid with no soft spots. There is evidence of repair and patching on the top side of the pans. That patching is functional and is doing its job, but it was not done to show specifications.

This is a car you can drive anywhere and enjoy for years without need for work.  It’s a sound car you can restore while driving over time.  Or, it’s a great base car for building your own high-end resto-mod ’57.
