"1957 Chevrolet 150 2-Door Station Wagon
""Workaday wonders, Chevrolet station wagons! In 6 passenger models the rear seats fold flush with the floor, extending the load platform 35 inches. Interiors in ""Two Tens"" and ""One Fifties"" are of washable vinyl that thrives on hard wear."". From the 1957 dealer brochure which features the myriad of models and configurations available that year. It was common for station wagons to have catchy nicknames and were officially sold as the Beauville, the Townsman, the Handyman, and of course, the Nomad.
For consignment, a 1957 Chevrolet 150 2-door station wagon with unknown miles due to exemption and inoperable odometer. This fuel injected example has an older restoration that's holding up well. With paint technology advances over the decades, this blue and ivory wagon likely has a deeper and more durable shine than a showroom example in 1957.
Exterior
Larkspur Blue and India Ivory, the bicolored panels are intersected by the flying jet trim piece with a jet stream that extends almost to the classic rear fin, which is completely framed by robust chrome trim, angled sharply inward and meeting up with the half moon, blue dot taillights over a rather ornate rear bumper. In front, its torpedoes away with two hood ornaments embedded in the sheet metal and pointed rubber fronted bumpers capping the miles of chrome around the grille. The center bar is a focal point as the portion that holds the marker lights and Chevrolet with central bowtie, while the round headlights are framed in artful black bezels. 15-inch chrome steel wheels are a nice old school touch and when coupled with tinted windows, you get an old meets new vibe. Imperfections include some bubbling tint, random scratches, paint bubbles, chipping, and spots of surface rust.
Interior
Gray tweed tops gray vinyl on the door panels in clean and tidy presentation and electric window switches are included, but you'll still have to crank the vent window old school style. The split bench seat is also handsomely patterned with the gray tweed and in excellent condition, matched in quality by the rear bench. Artistic designers sculpted a beautiful steering wheel with a sporty, boomerang shaped spoke and sweeping horn ring. Blue and polished metals make up the layers and sections of the dashboard where we experience old and new again with modern white faced gauges. An AM/FM radio is mid panel and an old school clock far right. Our open floorplan features an added center console with cupholders while the gray carpet below is perfect and adorned with blue rubber mats. The cargo area wears that same gray carpet and looks practically new and it's here we note some tinges of surface rust on the tailgate seam and hinge area.
Drivetrain
Under the hood, we find a clean 350ci V8 equipped with a Holley Sniper EFI system and headers. It's mated to a 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission which routes power to the rear axle and 3.36 gears. A/C, power steering, and power brakes are noted.
Undercarriage
We've got mostly clean conditions underneath where the dual exhaust flows through stock style mufflers, then turning east and west to exit through chrome tips behind each rear wheel. Power disc brakes are employed in front and power drums in back while suspension consists of coil springs in front and leaf springs in the rear. We note some flaking rust that appears to be mostly encapsulated on the inner rocker panels and body brace.
Drive-Ability
The injected 350 comes to life instantly and we put the straight column shifter into drive and roll this 150 onto the test loop where it runs well, tracks straight, and feels solid underfoot. We dig the cabin feel provided by the tint and the modern digital gauges mixed with bright red needles when on. We note the odometer and horn don't work but all other functions operate as intended and we return this chrome laden beauty back to the mall. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
While not a full resto-mod, this wagon has enough modern conveniences to give you confidence that you'll arrive at your destination and be comfortable and cool the whole way there! It's stunning on the outside and fresh and clean on the inside, and has enough room for your family and all their belongings!
