Greetings, I am selling my "57 Chevy Bel air. This is a true Bel Air not one pieced together. She shines very well and drives as she should.The car was originally built to be a driver/ 1/4 mile drag car. The suspension and drivetrain are very heavy duty and in very good or new/rebuilt condition. The interior is in nice condition as well.

I've had this car a couple years and put quite a bit of money into it assuring reliability. I realize I won't get back all the money I've invested but that's the way classic cars are and I'm fine with that.This car is sold as-is with no warranty of course. the buyer is responsible for pick-up or I can help with loading if you choose to have it shipped to you.please remember that this is a 60 year old car that isn't a total trailer queen. It does have some minor imperfections in the paint but shines up to a very high gloss and looks great This car was built to be driven and enjoyed.
I have a quick walk around video with the car idling on YouTubejust search- My '57 The BeastThe motor runs strong and cool and the remaining drive train is very beefed up so it should serve your needs for many years to come.
* I'm not interested in any trades*I don't "need" to sell the car so I'm not in a big hurry and would rather not deal with aggravations.I will accept cash, cash works best with no scammers or hassles (this isn't the first car I've sold) NO lowballers or scammers welcome...don't waste OUR time please... also I don't want or need anyone to help me sell this car.If you have any questions please contact me (Richard) at 248-227-2255 after 4pm EST weekdays or anytime on the weekend. I would prefer a call but will answer texts when I'm able.This car is also for sale locally so I may have to pull the add if it sells early.
Thanks for looking and best wishes on your search for the perfect car for you, Richard
