1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2 door Hardtop- High Quality Show and Cruise This is a stunning and highly acclaimed top show quality 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air two-door hardtop. Having achieved the winning of multiple Best of Show, People's Choice and First Place awards, you will be proud to take her anywhere and simply having her close by for "garage art". This amazing example was finished over 20 years ago and has lived the most pampered life possible since. With very few miles traveled (to mostly show events, calendar photo shoots and cruise events) this "old school style" restoration brings smiles, garners admiration, and peaks attention where ever she goes. The restoration was executed on a rust free body and chassis, and the "Romanesque Crimson Candy" PPG paint (a $30,000 investment 20 years ago) is a remarkable statement about our sellers commitment to a high quality, rotisserie "nut and bolt" build. Here are some of the outstanding highlights of this captivating beauty: BODY: - Exquisite "Romanesque Crimson Candy" paint - Stock interior, maintaining the authentic vintage charm. BRAKES: - Equipped with front disc brakes for enhanced safety and stopping power. EXHAUST: - Stainless Steel exhaust system with meticulously crafted handmade mufflers.

TRANSMISSION: - Smooth and reliable 700 R4 transmission with a Heavy-Duty Kit. - Enhanced driving experience with a Lokar shifter. REAR AXLE: - Fitted with a 3.55 Positraction rear axle for improved traction and performance. ENGINE: - Chevrolet 350 cu. in. engine with .030 overbore, 4-bolt mains, decked, and balanced for optimal performance. - Boasts an impressive 10:1 compression ratio. - Upgraded with TRW Forged pistons, Chevrolet Bow-Tie crankshaft, and high-performance rods. CAMSHAFT AND VALVETRAIN: - Equipped with a Competition Cams camshaft featuring .501 lift and Chevrolet Solid lifters. - High-performance Stage 5 Bow-Tie Aluminum heads with a competition valve job, 2.02 Intake, and 1.60 Exhaust stainless steel valves. - Enhanced with high-energy valve springs, roller rockers, chrome moly push rods, and guide plates. INTAKE AND FUEL SYSTEM: - Features an Offenhauser polished and jet-coated intake manifold. - Powered by a GM Tri-Power carburetion system with progressive linkage for optimal performance. - Supported by high-output Holley mechanical and electronic fuel pumps.
