1957 Chevy Bel Air – An American Classic
There are only a handful of old cars that almost everyone will immediately recognize and 1957 Chevy Bel Air is one of them. From the classic hooded headlights tail of this model is both an American icon as parades and pie apple. Although the term '57 Chevy came to be used as a wildcard for the trouble this model year, as if there was a single model, there were actually several variations of the note. It is interesting Considering that the Chevy guys wanted to see a new design for 1957 model. Production problems and setbacks due to the use of design in 1955 as the base model again. Imagine how close we were to never see this model!
The 1957 Chevrolet came in three different packages of the main stage. The Bel Air was the top of the luxury packaging line with gold anodized trim pieces on the grille, fenders, hood and trunk lid. The package 210 is an offer from the midline with the pack of 150 round line as a supply base. There were several body styles available for 1957 model, most of which had the choice of package Bel Air. Chevy Sedan standard door two and four have been offered and a two-door, four-door hardtop. Often confused by beginning birders are the Sedan and Sport Coupe hardtop or. The sedan is easy to see when he realizes that the model has vertical pillars between the windows, while the Sport Coupe Hardtop or not. There was also what they called a utility Cup that included a bench at the rear instead of a regular seat for sellers who need to take samples and providing materials. Station wagons were also popular at the time and Chevrolet has two variants in '57. The Nomad is the version high-end package of Bel Air, while the handyman adjustment has been presented in the 150 and 210 packets. And we can not Remember the famous Chevy convertible this year!
In addition to changes in several body styles this year a ton of different options available. Air conditioning and fuel injection are perhaps the most remarkable of all two of them, but very few have been sold. The air conditioning was still considered an unnecessary luxury for the fuel injection and was so new that most garages do not know how to fix the system. Most of the 1957 Chevy buyers opted this year for the truth and I tried carburetor. Other items offered are surround sound "for radio (which consisted of a loudspeaker in the back the car), electric brakes, power antenna radio, and a padded dashboard. It was the same year, the transmission was introduced Turboglide unhappy. Unfortunately, this tranny had a bad reputation since the beginning and the vast majority of buyers avoided. The Turboglide ceased production of less than four years later.
While we think of this car as perhaps the most famous in American history, the public to buy at the time was equally impressed. While sales are decent that missed expectations. In fact, Ford Motor Company sold Chevy this year for the first time in more than 20 years. After an interesting trend in the classic car market, however, remains the Chevy 1957 one of the most sought after models for car collectors worldwide.
