Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 1957 Description
Rare, interesting, and beautifully restored, this 1957 Chevrolet 210 Townsman wagon is a V8 total package cool cruiser that's turnkey ready and available for far less than the other iconic Tri-Five Chevys.<brThis Chevy 210 has been restored to look stunning. The original Sierra Gold and Adobe Beige two-tone has been expertly resprayed in modern clearcoat to give the colors that kind of vibrancy that will fill you with pride at every car show. You know a '57 by its acres of chrome and stainless trim, and thankfully, it's all present on this wagon. It includes the wide grille and bumper package; the full-length body trim that ends in the iconic bright tailfins; and the brightwork that surrounds every window and flows from the passenger compartment right into the rear bumper. You might have also noticed that this has the anodized aluminum, badging, and bright tail trim of the Bel Air. These additions not only look beautiful, but they're also well earned. After all, the 210 Townsman was nearly as rare as the Bel Air version, and far less were produced than the other iconic '57 coupes or convertibles.<brThe beautiful two-tone arrangement continues inside. The dual colors seem to wraparound and intertwine elegantly on the seats, dash, doors, and it even continues all the way behind the rear seats. Not only is the level of full color coordination the kind of thoughtful detail we all love, but also you can instantly tell from the condition of the vinyl and the carpeting that there was a lot invested in keeping this classic Chevy feeling quite fresh. The steering wheel continues this color scheme, and the chrome ring nicely coordinates with all the other brightwork on the dash. This is a true work of art that no car company could re-create today. This is the vehicle for vintage lover who also want to share the experience with family and friends. That's why there is an AM/FM/CD stereo with iPod input hidden that way to can keep them all entertained without ruining the vintage appearance. Plus, we know you look at this and think about the all-day car show potential. So take notice of the split rear hatch that also makes this your perfect tailgate partying friend.<brChevrolet touted how they enlarged the small block for more power in '57. So we are excited to see that this still carries the correct 283 cubic-inch displacement today. It looks great right down to the factory-style air grabber with correct decals. But lovers of performance and reliability will also enjoy the extra touches in this recently rebuilt V8 like the aluminum radiator, Corvette-style fined valve covers, and the four-barrel carburetor. It allows this machine to not only look stunning, but also be a true performer out on the streets, too. And don't just listen to the rumble the dual exhaust creates; you should also take a look at it in the undercarriage photos. The stainless setup and all the new components really prove to you that there is less than 2,300 miles on the vehicle since it completed restoration. These new pieces combine with the Powerglide automatic transmission, upgraded front disc brakes, and modern tires on the iconic Rally wheels to create a total package that's easy to drive any time.<brComplete with build receipts and the owner's manual, this '57 combines rarity and usability in well-priced package. So if you're quick enough, you can get an interesting icon that everyone can enjoy. Call today!!!
