Description

There are a lot of pretty '57 Chevys out there, o someone took this gorgeous Bel Air hardtop and turned it into one of the most stunning resto-mods we've ever seen. With subtle body mods, C4 Corvette chassis underneath, nd a stunning interior, here's nothing that this Chevy doesn't do well.Some cars are just so amazing, t's hard to know where to start. There's no denying that this is a '57 Bel Air in every way, he iconic shape and amazing details tell that story loud and clear. But upon closer inspection, ou can see that it's been carefully tweaked and modified, ncluding shaved door handles, custom grille with the teeth from a '57 'Vette, nd some scrupulously shaved trim bits. It's all bathed in vivid Matador Red paint that's show-quality beautiful. All the sheetmetal mods meant that it was critical to get the gaps exactly right, nd you'll definitely be impressed by how well this Chevy fits together. The 'Fuel Injection' badges on the front fenders meant something big was under the hood in '57, nd that remains true today, ut we'll get to that in a moment. Other stuff like the Bel Air anodized quarter panel trim, he gorgeous chrome and stainless trim that frames the rear fins, nd, f course, he heavy bumpers, ll of it has been expertly restored to really pop off that red surface.There's no other way to say it: the interior is simply stunning. Featuring modified buckets from a late-model GTO, ustom upholstery on every surface, nd a dramatic combination of old and new, t's clear that there was a master at work here. The center console was custom fabricated just for this car, nd includes a trick built-in clock just ahead of the billet shifter, lus the requisite cup holders that are practically standard on every modern rod. White-faced gauges from Classic Instruments were stuffed into a shiny billet panel and framed by a wild billet wheel wrapped in more red custom upholstery. A touch-screen entertainment system is state-of-the-art, nd like any great build, his Chevy includes amenities like A/C, ower windows, ower seats, nd a tilt steering column, ll blended with a 1950s sensibility that will make you smile every time you get int. Deep pile carpets feel luxurious and keep things quiet inside and extend to the beautifully finished trunk compartment.Under the skin, his '57 is still all Chevrolet, lthough it's Corvette rather than Bel Air. The motor is a 404-inch stroker based on a modern LS2 fed by a custom cold-air intake and looking right at home in the '57's engine bay. As many OEM components as possible were retained, ncluding the accessory drive, nd it's cooled by a giant aluminum radiator, o it's happy idling in traffic with the A/C cranking. It's backed by a smart FLT Level V 4L60E automatic transmission feeding a stock C4 Corvette rear diff. The fully independent suspension and massive disc brakes at all four corners are also complements of the 'Vette, nd it sounds simply magnificent bellowing through ceramic-coated long-tube headers and a Magnaflow exhaust system with X-pipe. Classic Torque Thrust wheels give it exactly the right look, ut wear modern 205/50/17 front and 255/45/17 rear BFG radials.Professionally built, his incredible '57 Chevy is a rare trophy magnet that also works superbly as a real car. Drive it cross country and we guarantee you'll never get bored with the ride. Call today!
