Details

This pro-built custom 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air hardtop has been modified with modern upgrades. It is powered by a GM crate Vortec 5.7-liter V8 engine paired with an overdrive-equipped automatic transmission. The fully polished engine compartment sports a massive custom crossflow radiator with dual temperature-controlled fans, MSD electronic ignition and Jet Hot-coated headers. Chassis upgrades include a full tubular front suspension with adjustable coilovers, power rack & pinion steering and a heavy-duty sway bar. The rear differential was upgraded to a narrowed Ford 9-inch, allowing room for the deep-dish fully polished Budnik custom rims. Power 4-wheel disc brakes stop the car with ease. The custom leather interior sports a Glide fully adjustable front seat with armrest, along with a custom-formed headliner and fully finished trunk to match. The interior features Dakota Digital gauges, a custom Billet steering column and a Lokar shifter housed in the custom console. This Bel Air is loaded with conveniences that include air conditioning, power windows and a sound system. It is finished in Torch Red with custom quarter-panel inserts and is fully sanded and buffed for a mirror finish. The car features show-quality chrome and brightwork with polished Billet hood hinges. It rolls on custom-built Budnik 17-inch rims wrapped in BFG tires.
