Power is provided by a 283ci V8 which is backed by a three-on-the-tree manual transmission.
In 2013 nearly $7k was spent on a major service that included a transmission overhaul, new clutch and flywheel, re-balanced drive shaft, steering box overhaul, oil change,
updated heater, and more as detailed below.
1957 was the only year for the larger grille, and it is accompanied by a flatter hood that is similar to the Bel Air from that year.
This example is offered with records since 2012 and a clean Maryland title in the current owner's name.
The restoration is believed to have been completed shortly before the current owner's purchase in 2012.
The body was stripped and repainted in the present finish, which is detailed in the gallery along with the trim.
Color-matched steel wheels have been fitted with BF Goodrich Silvertown wide whitewalls.
The painted inner bed sides show well in the provided images, and the wood slats on the bed floor also appear to be in nice condition.

The gauge cluster features new temperature and fuel gauges, which are accompanied by new wiring for all gauges.
The body-colored dash shows well, and the factory radio is paired with new speakers.

The 283ci V8 is paired to a column-shifted 3-speed manual transmission and has been converted to electronic ignition by the current owner.

Records are limited to his ownership and include a $6,800 major service in December 2013 that included:

  • New spark plug wires
  • New fuel sending unit
  • New temperature sending unit
  • New clutch and flywheel
  • Re-balanced drive shaft
  • Transmission overhaul
  • Steering box overhaul
  • Differential servicing
  • New rear shock absorber

Additional work commissioned by the current owner included the replacement of the heater box and adjustment of the heater valve,

along with the installation of a new dual exhaust and oil change.


Images of the underside highlight the bottom of the wood bed, the refreshed suspension, and the new exhaust.
