Up for auction is a very nice 57 Chevy that you will be proud to drive and show. This car will gets a lot of looks and compliments everywhere you go.  This American icon is very dependable and hits the road excellent and can be driven anywhere!!

This car originally was sold in Melbourne Florida and made its way up here just a few short years ago. I purchased it in Charlotte N.C and sold it to a good friend of mine in aprox 2008-2009. He installed vintage a/c and a new 350 crate engine. The car has been garage kept since and driven very little and still shows extremely well. Just a few weeks ago I acquired this 57 back in on trade and have made it my demo. I have been driving this car back and forth to work and around town daily (weather permitting) with NO problems!!!

The body is straight as an arrow and as solid as you will find!! The trunk, floors, frame, body panels are extremely solid and rust free! T

he chrome, stainless, and glass is in immaculate condition and still shows like new with a high quality shine! The windshield has one foggy place on the driver side (see pics) other than that all glass is perfect!!

The paint is slick as glass and as straight as a guitar string. It has a very deep show room shine and looks amazing but the car has been done for aprox 7-8 years and driven a little so it will have what I would consider to be normal wear that is to be expected from any vehicle that has been driven and enjoyed ...such as maybe a small chip here or there that has been touched up. NO runs, orange peel, trash in the paint etc. This is a high quality paint job that has held up remarkably! It is accented tastefully  and professionally with pearl ghost flames that you have to look HARD to see. In fact they barely show up in the pics but if you look close you will catch a glimpse. Also on the trunk is some air brush work that was done from the dealer in Florida who sold it years ago. Personally the airbrush on the trunk is the only thing I don't like about the cars paint and if the new owner would like I am willing to repaint the trunk lid and delete this??

The interior just like the rest of the car was restored a few years ago but still shows extremely well. NO rips or tears!! It still shows to be in great condition! It is fitted with aftermarket oil, temp amp gauges, aftermarket seatbelts and a Kenwood am/fm/cd player

As mentioned before a new 350/290h.p. crate engine was added by my friend in aprox 2008-2009. He purchased this engine from Berglund Chevrolet and I do have the receipt and less than 9,000 miles have been placed on it. With the headers, aluminum intake and a few more upgrades I would estimate this car to be a touch over 300h.p. The engine is mated to a newly replaced (replaced same time as engine) turbo 350 automatic transmission that shifts perfect and stock rear end geared at aprox 3:73.  The car runs, sounds and performs excellent NO mechanical problems!! It was upgraded last year with power brakes, vintage a/c (blows ice cold) and a Be Cool aluminum radiator to ensure absolutely NO over heating. On the hottest of days here the car will not break 190 degrees. It can be driven anywhere with NO problems!!

All old classics always require some fine tuning or have a few bugs. Here is a few very simple things I have found will require some attention from the new owner..... The horn does not blow, the stereo works but does not pick up stations as the antenna has been broken from a car cover and the speedometer quit working a few months ago. Other than those minor bugs she is ready to enjoy!!
