1957 Chevrolet/ Chevy Bel Air - $68,500 (Omaha)
QR Code Link to This Post
56 years back, and due to some hard times and raising a family, I decided to park my 57.
Before I parked it 56 years ago, it was always garaged, and I never drove it in the winter.
When I parked it, I put it up on 4 stands on the frame, drained the gas, lubed the engine with oil, put a car cover on it and built a wall in the garage to protect it. I turned the engine over every year.
It is a V-8, power pack 283 with a 4-bbl. carburetor and dual exhaust.
The seats still have the clear plastic on them.
Years ago, I lived and bought the car in the state of Washington, so it is a west coast car, so it has the one-piece bumpers and the box frame. I later moved to Omaha, so most of the miles on the car are highway miles that I put on going back and forth to Washington in the summers.
The few changes to the car were done by myself (4 speed and Mickey Thompson mags) just before I parked it.
I’m 86 and have finally decided it’s time to sell it.
Willing to work with someone who wants and appreciates a nice well-cared for 57 Chevy.
Asking $68,500
I only have this one outside picture of the car just before I parked it.
I did recently take a few pictures of it as it sets in the garage.
If you have any questions, give me a call or e-mail me.

Thanks for considering this beautiful vintage car.
