"Cruisin Classics is pleased to present this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 4-door. Have you always wanted a classic Tri-Five Chevy to cruise around town but didn't want to spend a fortune on one that feels too nice to drive? Well, then this is the car for you! This '57 is a driver-quality four door model that has the style and looks you're hunting for, but without the sky-high price tag. This Chevy comes to us dressed in a driver-quality respray in it's original colors – a Tropical Turquoise body with an India Ivory top – a fantastic color combo. Bel Airs are known for their copious amounts of stylish chrome and this car has that look. The brightwork does vary in quality from piece to piece though. Some pieces are nice and bright while others are dull and some others are heavily pitted – but they are all there. The hood rockets, large wrap-around bumpers, dagmars with pasties, window rain deflectors, and the iconic flared side trim and fins all join together to satisfy your nostalgic desire. This Bel Air cruises down the road on a set of steel wheels with Chevy hubcaps and Hankook Kinergy ST tires.
Under the hood is a very original-looking engine bay. At the center is a 235ci Blue Flame inline 6-cylinder engine that is likely original to the car. The blue block is topped off with a blue ""Chevrolet"" valve cover. The carburetor is a single barrel Rochester and it's connected to a black oil-bath air cleaner. Steering is manual and the four-wheel drum brakes are manual as well. The 6-cylinder is mated up to a 3-speed manual transmission that sends power to the rear wheels. We did notice while under the hood that there is a new fuel regulator, a new fuel filter, and new upper control arms. Under the rear of the car you'll also find a new gas tank. Out on the road, this Bel Air drives and handles just as it should and it collects thumbs-up's wherever you go.
Open the drivers door to find an appealing white and turquoise interior. The door panels, bench seats, and rear package tray are all dressed in pleated white vinyl in good condition. Underfoot is older turquoise loop carpet topped with black rubber Chevy floormats and overhead is a tight white perforated vinyl headliner. Ahead of the driver is a large turquoise steering wheel with a working chrome horn ring. On the column is the shifter fot the 3-speed manual transmission – affectionately known as a ""three-on-the-tree"". Beyond the wheel is a turquoise steel dash with cool '50's charm. The steering wheel frames a 120mph speedometer that is flanked by gauges for fuel (inop.) and temp. Below the gauges is an ornamental stamped metal band that stretches from one side of the dash to the other and contains switches for lights and the working 2-speed wipers, ignition, a radio-delete cover plate, and a clock (inop.). Beneath the band there is a fan pull switch that operates a slow-moving underdash fan, but there is no heat. Also below the band is an empty glovebox. Around back in the trunk you'll find a black rubber mat, a full spare & jack, and a car cover.
This affordable 1957 Chevy Bel Air is turn-key ready to hit the road today and it also has potential for future upgrades or restoration. This is your chance to enjoy all of that cool '50's nostalgia at a price that won't break the bank! Give our friendly staff a call today and make this Turquoise '57 your own!

Here at Cruisin Classics, we understand that you have many options when choosing where you purchase your classic, muscle or collector car and we would like to thank you for considering us.
Cruisin Classics has been buying and selling cars for many years.. The majority were your average daily drivers but our passion has always been in muscle cars and hot rods so in 1996, Cruisin Classics built a 56,000 sq.ft. showroom located in Columbus, OH that they still operate out of today. All of our vehicles are hand-picked and selected to ensure they fit our inventory. This facility is now arguably one of the best-stocked collections for sale in the US housing hundreds of unique automobiles all under one roof. We invite you to our facility! There is something for everybody when you come to visit.
After years of serving as central Ohio's premiere classic car dealer at Cruisin Classics Auto Sales, we saw an unfulfilled need that was not being met for our clients. We loved helping match our clients with the classic and American muscle cars of their dreams. But what about after the purchase? We recognized that our clients needed a trusted resource to continue to care for their classic vehicles. It did not sit well with us that our valued clients and their incredible vehicles were being outsourced to, sometimes several, third-party resources for maintenance and performance needs. We also wanted to help the many people that we had met over the years who already owned classic vehicles which were in need of restoration, upgrades, and maintenance. Too often, we were seeing vehicles with so much potential left sitting in garages under covers because their owners did not know who to turn to for such specialized work. It is our goal to offer our clients a truly comprehensive, seamless, and enjoyable classic car ownership experience, from purchase to maintenance to storage. Thus, Cruisin Classics Performance Center was born. We have cherry-picked the most talented, experienced, and passionate team of technicians to offer our clients a true one-stop-shop solution for any and all of their classic car needs. Our honest business model has lasted almost 25 years to date and Cruisin Classics has a worldwide reputation as one of the best in the business.
Outside of the shop, this business has afforded us the opportunity to be actively involved in our community and fulfill our goal of supporting several local and national organizations that hold a special place in our hearts. We are proud sponsors of the Kiwanis Club of Columbus, the Columbus USO, Honor Flight, Special Olympics, multiple car clubs, and much more.
In conclusion, 100% customer satisfaction is our main goal. Always has been.. always will be. We would like to invite anyone considering one of our vehicles to come to our beautiful facility to inspect the car in person or send somebody on your behalf.
