MotoeXotica Classic Cars is pleased to offer this 1957 Chevrolet Bel-Air sedan that is a true factory Bel-Air with its factory FC code 283 CID V8 engine and four barrel carb. This example was made in Chevrolet’s Fairfax factory in Kansas City, Kansas during the first week of January 1957. It was delivered to Lipp Chevrolet Company in Red Cloud, Nebraska. Finished in its correct Onyx Black, (code 793), the car’s paint and trim are in overall good condition but there are a couple of blemishes visible at various exterior points, please see the photos for further review. The wipers are inoperable, the windshield has a crack on the passenger side, a chip in the rear window but its lights are intact and clear. The car rides on new Coker Classic wide whitewall tires, size 7.50-14 at all four corners. Factory ‘spinner’ wheel covers cap the steel wheels and are in good shape for their age. This Bel-Air’s body panels are complete and all of the correct trim is present, the trunk interior is in good order, complete with its original jack and new full-sized spare tire, its bumpers look fantastic, the engine bay is tidy and the battery looks newer. In that engine bay is the factory FC coded 283 CID V-8 engine (F404FC) with a four-barrel carburetor, its original air cleaner housing and breathing through new dual exhausts. Backing up that motor is a Powerglide two-speed automatic transmission and a 3.55:1 rear end. Inside, the correct red and black interior (code 669) looks great overall but has a few minor blemishes. The red and black cloth and vinyl bench seats are in very good order, as is the black carpeting with its contrasting red floormats. The headliner is in fair condition, with blemishes visible on the passenger side C-pillar. The fuel gauge is inoperable but the red metal instrument panel looks great and resonates with the design themes popular at that time. The original two-spoke steering wheel with its metal horn ring has great patina and the inner door panel, mirror glass and gear selector are all in good order. Completing the interior is a factory AM radio. The 1957 Bel-Air is among the most recognizable American cars of all time; well-maintained examples are highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts. They are roomy, with tastefully restrained, period use tail fins and chrome.
