Description

When you want the most sinister of the Tri-Five Chevy around only this very custom 1957 Chevrolet 210 coupe will do. With its mirror black shine, new A/C interior, and a throaty rumble out of the enhanced small block, this is turnkey intimidation with a premium twist.Tri-Five Chevys are an icon that will always be a hot item. Everyone loves them so the custom crowd makes them look every way from mild to wild. Those large 17-inch Vision Legend Series wheels gives this coupe a modern look, but the truth is the sheetmetal is pretty much as GM intended back in '57. But you can tell someone when to great lengths at one time to restore it. The body looks great thanks to good investments and that the two-door is more rigid than the hardtop. So everything fits well and the doors shut with confidence. It also makes for a great canvas to apply the sinisterly shiny black paint. And of course, the brightwork is the true key to the coupe's iconic appearance, and that's why were happy when it looks as this good. From the bumpers to the delicate piece of trim along the windowsills that accents the little dip in the bodywork, it all is looking it s best. And the true reason you want a '57 is that unmistakable full length trim piece. It works best on this example because the 210 line skipped the Bel Air's rear insert, and in our opinion, that just gives this iconic coupe a little more attitude.Open the door, and you'll see more great signs of investment. The seats look a bit like the stock patterns, but the materials are a big upgrade. The new two-tone black and gray vinyl adds durability, practicality, comfort, and luxury over the 1950s originals. The seats also match nicely with the side panels like any worthwhile build should. There's plenty of shine from the '50s style dash, but then you start to notice some upgrades after all a cool car like this needs R134a air conditioning so you can stay cool, too. But the best upgrades add to this coupe's sinister image. This includes the newer black carpeting with dragon stitching and a floor shifter with eyeball knob. And once you grab the flame-style Grant steering wheel and gaze over the full Dakota gauge package, you instantly know there is something special under the hood.This engine bay is wilder than anything you've seen from the '50s, and the Spectre performance intake lets you know that immediately. It's an enhancement for both show and power, and that's exactly what's going on everywhere under the hood. That's why the bright valve covers, alternator, master cylinder, and much more is joined by performance pieces like the Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock intake, and shorty headers. Plus, there are some thoughtful features like the aluminum radiator w/electric fan. So while the rumble of this Chevy's dual exhaust will make people think you have an asphalt eater on your hands, you really know it's a comfortable A/C car that's sturdy in any situation. In fact, with features like the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and front disc brakes, this is truly a great all-around cruiser.This is an awesome classic that respects its history in all the right places and upgrades where you want them most. A fully built, ready-to-rumble machine like this doesn't come around too often, so call today!
