The fit and finish on this example are impressive.The paint job is older but of excellent quality and is buffed to a high-caliber shine.The chrome and stainless probably cost a fortune to restore/replace, and all of it remains in very good condition.Details include beautiful chrome bumpers fore and aft, and those trademark bullet-shaped hood ornaments.The interior also sports the correct, two-tone black and red interior restored using the right fabrics and patterns.Plush carpet provides great insulation from heat and noise alike, while the iconic Chevy dashboard matches everything very nicely.The gauges are just as flashy as in any other '57 model, including the separate pods for fuel level and temperature above that ribbon of bright metal trim.There is also an original heater/defroster unit and excellent glass throughout the cabin.The trunk offers a reproduction rubber mat with plenty of room for luggage and car show goodies.There are signs of regular maintenance and careful ownership throughout the tidy and clean engine bay.Wearing corporate Chevy Orange enamel, the 283ci V8 looks right at home.Even things that generally get replaced like the big valve covers, air cleaner assembly, and exhaust manifolds are correct.You will also spot an original generator, but it has been converted to 12-volts judging by the modern battery.The Turbo 350 transmission is smooth and torquey.The 3-speed shifts firmly right about the moment you think it won't.From there, the strong-running V8 pulls this car around effortlessly at highway speeds.The suspension rides and handles quite well, with a polished feeling you wouldn't typically expect from a vintage Chevrolet.It's quite clean underneath, and it sits on a set of appropriate-looking 205/75/14 whitewall radials wrapped around steel wheels with stock hubcaps that really dress it up.Disc brakes on the front are a worthy and accepted upgrade to stopping this classic.Factory rear fender skirts complete the classic look.
