1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible - 39 000 miles

Description

The 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible embodies the quintessential design elements of the 1950s, showcasing the height of automotive styling. Still widely recognized today, this model is a symbol of the era's extravagant chrome and towering tail fins, a testament to the belief that bigger was better and America reigned supreme in the world of car manufacturing.

The Bel Air stood out from other models with its extensive use of chrome on the exterior. The front bumpers shone with chrome and showcased a golden grille, accentuated by a substantial chrome bar that framed the prominent parking lights. The vehicle's defining feature, its rear fins, were adorned with chrome mouldings and enhanced by anodized aluminium side trim panels. Notably, the fuel-filler door was ingeniously hidden within the left rear chrome fin trim, a subtle yet handy feature that contributed to the car's sleek exterior lines.

This Bel Air went through an extensive restoration a number of years ago and has seen three owners from new remaining in its original colour Larkspur Blue

This car is also correctly registered on the South African Natis system as it has been in South Africa for longer than 25 years.
