1957 CHEVROLET BEL AIR FUEL INJECTED MASTERPIECE

 

TODAY, THE 1957 CHEVROLET IS KNOWN AS THE ULTIMATE "CLASSIC CHEVY". ALL ONE HAS TO DO IS
MENTION "57" AROUND A BUNCH OF OLD CAR BUFFS & EVERYONE WILL IMMEDIATELY IDENTIFY THOSE
TWO NUMBERS WITH THE 1957 CHEVROLET. ALMOST FROM THE DAY PRODUCTION CEASED, IT'S BEEN IN
DEMAND NOT ONLY AS THE LAST OF THE "CLASSIC CHEVY", BUT THE BEST. THE 1957 CHEVY WAS CALLED
BY SOME A "BABY CADILLAC" BECAUSE OF MANY SIMILAR STYLING CUES TO CADILLAC'S OF THE TIME.

IN ADDITION TO A MAJOR FACELIFT, THE 1957 CHEVY INCLUDED MORE PERFORMANCE
WHICH WAS VERY POPULAR ON AND OFF THE TRACK. MUCH OF IT'S POPULARITY STEMMED
FROM THE UNDENIABLE PERFORMANCE OF THE NEWLY ENLARGED 283 CUBIC INCH V8 ALONG WITH THE
HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE 0F THE TOP 283 HORSEPOWER VERSION WITH "RAMJET" FUEL INJECTION.
CHEVROLET NOW CLAIMED "1 HORSEPOWER PER CUBIC INCH", A GM FIRST!

MAINTAINED EXAMPLES ARE HIGHLY SOUGHT AFTER BY COLLECTORS AND ENTHUSIASTS.
