| Mileage | 12,200 miles |
| Colour (as listed by seller) | Matador Red/India Ivory |
| Interior colour | Red/Black |
| Transmission | 4-Speed |
| Condition | THIS... is a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad, finished in Matador Red and India Ivory with a red and black interior. - According to the seller, this Nomad retains a factory look, but features extensive modifications and upgrades fitted as part of a full mechanical and cosmetic restoration. - A partial list of notable currently installed equipment reported by the seller includes a Chevrolet Performance crate 350ci V8, FiTech throttle body fuel injection, a GM 700R4 4-speed automatic transmission, a Ford 9-inch differential with 3.73:1 final drive ratio, power brakes with front disc conversion, power steering, upgraded suspension with front and rear sway bars, a factory-style Wonder Bar AM radio with discreet Bluetooth integration, and Vintage Air air conditioning. - 1955 was a huge year for American cars, marking the debut of the iconic Tri-Five as well as the very first small-block Chevy V8—the most-produced family of V8 engines in automotive history. Remembered today as the quintessential 1950s Detroit car, the 1955, ’56, and ’57 Chevrolets were emblematic of postwar America’s optimism and prosperity, pairing flamboyant styling with accessible performance. - Arguably the most sought-after Tri-Five body style, the Nomad accounted for less than 0.5% of total production from 1955 through 1957. Numbers built declined each year, from roughly 8,400 in 1955 to 7,900 in 1956 and just 6,1 |
