1957 Chevrolet Bel Air/150/210 SURVIVOR Description

A VERY NICE SURVIVOR '57 BEL AIR

THE PEOPLE I TRADEDTO OWNTHIS CAR BOUGHT IT FROM THE ESTATE OF DORIS MEADOWS IN SPRINGFIELD, MO. THE CAR HAS SPENT IT'S 60 YEARS IN THE SPRINGFIELD AREA AND WAS WELL TAKEN CARE OF. THE ORIGINAL INTERIOR ISALMOST IN UNBELIEVABLE CONDITION. EXCEPT FOR SOME STAINING THAT MAY CLEAN UP, IT STILL LOOKS NEW.

MOST OF THE BODY HAS ITS ORIGINAL PAINT. SOME 20+ YEARS AGO THE LOWER FRONT FENDERS, LOWER FRONT OF QUARTER PANELS AND OUTER ROCKERS WERE REPAIRED AND BLENDED TO THE TRIM LINE. THESE REPAIRS WILL HAVE TO BE REDONE CORRECTLY TO LOOK GOOD. THIS CAR HAS ALL ITS ORIGINAL PANELS AND THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF ANY BODY DAMAGE. THIS 57 HAS THE ONE PIECE BOX FRAME. INSIDE THE FRAME RAILS THERE IS NO RUST IN THE ORIGINAL FLOOR. OUTSIDE OF THE FRAME RAILS TO THE INNER ROCKERS HAVE RUST INCLUDING BRACES. THESE CARS WERE PRONE TO RUST IN THESE AREAS. I AM A PAINT AND BODYMAN WITH 30+ YEARS OF WORKING ON THESE OLD CARS. I WAS GOING TO BUY A ONE PIECE FULL FLOOR WITH BRACES AND INNER ROCKERS FOR $800 (FREE SHIPPING) OFF EBAY, LOWER FENDER REPAIR PANELS AND FAB PATCHES FOR QUARTERS, THAT'S IT! YOU WOULD NOT EVEN HAVE TO USE THE WHOLE FLOOR PAN IF YOU DIDN'T WANT TO.

DRIVE TRAIN IS ORIGINAL WITH 71,000 MILES. THE ENGINE LOOKS TO HAVE BEEN REBUILT AT ONE POINT OR AT LEAST HARDENED VALVE SEATS INSTALLED TO RUN ON UNLEADED FUEL. NO HARD PROOF OR RECIEPTS TO VERIFY THIS, SO TAKE IT FOR WHAT IT IS (I WILL NOT GUARANTEE HISTORY OR MILES). THE LADY THAT BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW WAS WELL KNOWN IN THE AREA AND TOOK GOOD CARE OF THE CAR, LOOK AT THE CAR AND DOCUMENTS INCLUDED AND MAKE YOUR OWN CONCLUSION. CAR RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE THE DAY IT WAS NEW!

IN PREP TO DRIVE AFTER ALOT OF YEARS OF SITTING, THE TANK AND FUEL SYSTEM WAS CLEANED, NEW BRAKES ALL AROUND, LINES, WHEEL CYLINDERSAND HOSES, NEW E-BRAKE CABLES, SHOCKS, REAR SPRINGS,EXHAUSTAND FRONT END ALIGNMENT. NEW COOPER TIRES ON THE ORIGINAL WHEELS WITH CAPS GO WITH THE CAR ALSO. I WILL TAKE $1,000 OFF IF YOU DON'T WANT THE NEW WHEELS AND TIRES ON THE CAR AND WILL PUT THE ORIGINALS BACK ON FOR YOU.

LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, WARNING LIGHTS IN THE DASH, WIPERS, DOME LIGHT, FUEL, OILAND TEMP GAUGES, SPEEDOMETER, HORNAND HEAT/DEFROST ALL WORK. ORIGINAL RADIOANDCLOCK ARE NOT WORKING AT THIS TIME. PLEASE CALL WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE, OR BETTER YET COME BY AND LOOK IT OVER, TEST DRIVE IT, AND I KNOW YOU WILL BUY IT! ORIGINAL 1957 TITLE IS INCLUDED AS DOCUMENTATION ONLY, CAR COMES WITH A UPDATEDMISSOURI TITLE. THANKS, MIKE 479-238-1122 OR CELL 479-228-4304
