Details: You want iconic? Weve got iconic! How about an aqua blue and white 57 Chevyand#44; replete with wide whitesand#44; wire wheelsand#44; small block powerand#44; and acres of chrome? If we were searching for the ultimate car to cruise the Miracle Mile this would be itand#44; hands down.


Few color schemes are as right for a 57 as Tropical Turquoise and Imperial Ivoryand#44; and this one was done right. A high quality build with only 1600 miles since completionand#44; youll find very shiny paint over arrow straight panels. The chrome is all newand#44; as is the tinted glass. Gold emblems add a touch of class while LED taillights look cool and give those following you a clearer idea of when youre slowing down. A California style one-piece bumper is up frontand#44; replacing the awkward multi-piece factory part. There arent any other modifications on the body; some cars are so well-styled from the factory that add-ons simply arent necessary!


Insideand#44; youve got brand newand#44; wall to wall new upholstery from CARSand#44; Inc. Slide in and get comfortable-theres plenty going on in here. The dash is done to the same standard as the exteriorand#44; and its sporting all new aluminum trim. Front and center is a full set of Dakota Digital VHX series analog gaugesand#44; backlit with blue LEDs. Youre holding on to a stock appearingand#44; small (read: normal for todays cars) steering wheel attached to a new Ididit steering column feels great in your hands. Billet accents adorn the shifter and turn signal leversand#44; the shift indicator and the brake pedals. A new headliner is above held in place with stainless bows. Power windows are at your sides while A/C controls are just to the right of the column. Againand#44; no trickery or silly parts in hereand#44; just great-lookingand#44; well-chosen pieces.


Under the hood youll find a few more liberties taken than with the bodyand#44; but theres still nothing but quality to be found. Front and center is a rebuilt 327 with the full show treatment. Its got a mild cam for a little rumble and an Endurashine-coated Edelbrock intake and carburetor combo for more power. Rams horn exhaust manifolds carry away spent gasses while a new aluminum radiator deals with excess heat. Billet Specialties Tru Trac pulley and accessory package is up frontand#44; and that certainly wasnt cheapand#44; and theres a CPP chrome brake booster and master cylinder on the smoothed and painted firewall. Up front is a CPP quick ratio steering box which does wonders in knocking the car out of the 50s and into the present day. Likewiseand#44; the front disc brakes with drilled rotors are something that Eisenhower-era GM engineers could only dream of. New shocksand#44; new bushingsand#44; new ball jointsand#44; new steering pieces... the list goes on. The exhaust system follows the factory Power Pack routing but is a larger diameter and sports turbo-style mufflers. Coker true wire wheels are surrounded by 215/70/15 BFGoodrich wide whitesand#44; and honestlyand#44; is there any other way to finish off a car like this?


A small pile of receipts follows the carand#44; as does a professionally doneand#44; hardbound build book. This wasnt a cheap car to build and the proof comes along with it. If youre looking for a really well builtand#44; great looking 57 Bel Airand#44; call today!
