FRESH FRAME OFF RESTO, EK-CODE 283 FI BLOCK & CORRECT ROCHESTER FI, 3 SP MAN, A+

Description

You're looking at a tribute to one of the meanest street machine ever. But this 1957 Chevrolet 150 not only looks like a Black Widow sedan, but also the period-correct fuel-injected powerhouse under the hood gives you the performance of a true blacktop king.
With less than 100 miles on this classic since it was restored, its appeal is as clear as black and white. In fact, you can see the level of investment every time the sunlight hits the high-gloss two-tone. It's particularly special to get this right, because those who know performance history also know the significance of the black and white utility sedans. These could be optioned to be the light and powerful "Black Widows" of the boulevard. That's why it also has all all the 150-model specific elements, including the white steelies with half wheel-covers, and the sash molding that were made famous by the upper level trims in previous years. But more than just the unique pieces, the Chevy 150 shares all the iconic '57 Chevy elements we all love. The sharp tailfins, dual jet-inspired hood ornaments, and wide grille that looks like a big chrome smile it all contributes to the legend that is the '57 Chevy. So with all these iconic pieces to get correct, you'll be impressed with the level of detail and investment in the brightwork and panel fit to make sure that everyone remembers this Black Widow.
The 150 line had one of the coolest interior patterns around. The comfy cloth inserts on the seats and the matching side panels were as wild as some of the custom creations that would come out decades later. So the freshly restored interior will attract a wide range of people. That's why it's nice that this tribute car has a back seat to share with more family and friends (utility sedans just had a parcel shelf.) You'll love how the dash continues the black and silver theme. Plus, everything is period-correct from the dual spoke steering wheel to the AM radio that's still cranking out tunes!
But your favorite part of this restoration is absolutely under the hood. Not only is this a fuel-injection car, but you'll love telling people that this has a true EK-code 1957 FI block. It even has the 1957-correct Rochester fuel-injector unit (7014800). And on an engine this well done, all the details are exactly what you want, too. From the Chevrolet script on the valve cover, to the Fuelie's specific intake it's a stellar total presentation. More than just something to look at, this is a true street machine. The instant response of the fuel injection combines with the growl of the dual exhaust and control of the column-shifted three-speed manual transmission to let you know what it felt like to be a blacktop racer in the '50s.
This is an iconic classic restored with a time capsule-like quality. So if you demand a genuine feeling from your turn-key street machine, then don't let this special one slip away. Call today!!!
