When I was in grade school, I went to a combination school/day care. There was a big set of rings in the front yard. I used to sit in the rings and watch for the beautiful black and silver '57 Chevy that drove by everyday. Was then and still is my favorite.
That is a beautiful ride ! My early days was filled with cars that had fins and hood ornaments, and you could distinguish one make from the other. Not so much nowadays!
That was the year I was born I would trade my Corvette for that in a minute in fact I think I’m going to do that that car just pushed me over the edge Beautiful!!!
When I was a teenager my neighbor Mr. Percy had a black 57 Belair that was as clean as the one in this podcast. He drove it everyday. The thing I remember the most was it had red interior and was a factory three speed on the column. That car was rare and included the first year for the 283 engine. The 55 and 56 came with the 265 engine and the 58 was a one off year with the 348 engine. The 59 and up used the 283, 327, 409, 396, 350, 302, 396, 454 and 400.
@@randallbeasley646 1958 is the only year Chevy produced that engine. Like any engine people properly modified the engine a few years after production to increase horse power. But Chevy actually followed with the 283 and 327 in which both were better engines than the 348. Both the 265 and 348 engines were extremely heavy cast iron engine. Most people felt during the early sixties that the 327 was the best engine chevy had made because you could order a 327 that produced 325 HP or 375 HP. When Chevy introduced the big block 409 that generated 425-475 HP many early NASCAR racers used that engine in their race cars with little modification. During that time frame anyone could order a car from GM with one of these small block or big block high HP engines ready to race or smoke the back tires. I think I have said enough regarding this subject. By the way my first car was a1964 SS Impala with a 427 engine.
So beautiful !!!! always been my dream car except in red and white . Mmm listen to that baby purring Sure dont see or hear fine rides like that today Thanks for sharing the beauty

I hope to have a more cohesive conversation concerning the frame but suggest that conversation be set aside until I pass my state exam and licensing. Perhaps this conversation can be continued with your father and or UA-cam. .55
I am sorry about your friend man, if you have any questions about the car my dad and I would be more than happy to answer, unfortunately we sold this car a couple of years ago so I do not have very many videos of it. We sold it at a Barret Jackson show in Florida, if you want I can send you the link of the video
Mate, tell your dad he’s done a ripper job. Awesome looking car and for all the flogs that don’t like the wheels. Welcome to the new millennium. Have an identical one to do myself which will end up very similar. Sweet.
lol I thought the same thing I spend hours recording and editing gaming videos on this channel putting a bunch of work into editing them and they only get like 20 to 30 views which is still good for my standards but then I post a few second clip of my dads car with no edits and it gets over 200,000 views lol

That is the most beautiful 57 ive ever seen. my Dad bought a brand new 57 convertible teal color white top.That summer we went from the east coast to california to visit Moms family. Of course Moms new car was the topic of conversation. We didnt have it long. Mom wanted a station wagon. She got the ugliest car ever. Powder blue 59 ford. 67 I graduated high school and left home. finally Got a drivers license. First car was a 59 plymouth Belvedere. 2 dr, 318, red and black push button drive and rear view mirror mounted on the dash. 19,000 miles, like new. $200 big ones. Would love to have now. Gave it to my brother when I joined the navy to see the world. He wrecked it twice, Totaled the second time but not a scratch on him.it Is amazing how we American Boys love our cars. The one id love to have in a garage was my 1970 Chevy Chevelle. SS 396, 375 HP Silver with factory black striping. it was not known at the time but was later part of the muscle car start from the factory. Love them cars.
ThePoppinGamer8345:::: Sorry you sold it!!!! Hope you got what your asking price was!!!! I own an 81 Vett coupe with glass t-tops and I installed a 383 stroker,,,, still have it,,,, won't let go of it,,,, but it is black also and her name is Black Bueaty!!!! Love my Vett!!!!
I built model cars in the late 50’s . The doors would open, the steering wheel would turn the front wheels, the trunk and hood would open. The dashboard was very detailed. If it was four doors, all the doors would open. I also painted the car . My favorite car was the 1957 Chevrolet. It was the coolest hot rod on the street. The models engine was very detailed. Though I was more upset with my parents throwing out my complete collection of baseball cards. From 1958-1961 I also was upset with losing all my model cars, WW 2 aircraft and ships.
That's ok. I saw her go across the block from the time stamp you shared. Just a beautiful representation of that car. Glad you got to enjoy it for a time.
My dad used to have one of these here in the uk. I used to be embarrassed as a kid going out in it just from the attention it would draw. Beautiful car.
I know a bit about restored cars and this one is very nice. The black color with polished stainless and chrome trim really defines this car, never realized how “finned” the 57 is 🤔

What a beautiful looking 57 Chevy Bel Air and great sounding.
Class ! Only a few cars of modern production even come close. This style is timeless.🇺🇸👍🏻
That thing is freakin immaculate!
THAT...........is beautiful. Not over the top customized. Very appealing to the eye. Black/Silver red interior. Gorgeous Chevy 👍👍
DEFINITELY
Wow that is a beautiful vehicle. That's how vehicle look like in good old days. Thank you for sharing beautiful vehicle.
Nothing beats the classics
Now that is a car! Love the sound of that engine. Husband restored one of these, I miss it.
Oh wow very nice, back when cars were made right . Beautiful also sweet looking ride. Sounds great also.
Listen up kids. That’s what a V-8 should sound like. One of my favorite sounds in the whole world.
Playing at my neighbors and saw Dad drive home in one...ran all the way home and kissed the car.

Best 57 Chevy Bellaire was a gold dust convertible in Las Vegas, Nevada in 1969. I fell in love with it.
The gold no.1 cant go wronge with that color ...
Love the smoothness of the laid out black, with the red guts. She would make "Christine" lose a quart or two if you parked next to her. 🤟😃👍

What year and Color of Chevrolet Corvette?
Never, ever been a Chev fan, all MOPAR all day, BUT that 57' is STUNNING.
Bloody hell - what an absolute gem! Don’t modern cars look crap compared to this!
I am so old I rode in a 57 Bellair in 1957, cost new was $2476.00, but, it didn't have all the after market this one does..
1958 Biscayne was $1800 . Six cylinder stick transmission. no carpet.

The black and red 57 is not a rare car. Beautiful but not rare
@@gerrybaker1422 I said the three speed on the column was rare not the color even though the color was beautiful.
348 was around to 61, 327 came out in 62, 307came out in 68, 305 in 73 , 409 was 61-64 and came in early 65 impalas and replaced with 396.
Very impressive,you can keep your beemers etc,this car is first class
That is one very sweet 57' chevy.
1955, 1956, And 1957. Works of art. I love them all but 1956 is a real kick in the pants🔥🔥🔥
With so much negative news ATM, this vid took me back to happier times, thanks🥝🇳🇿
The only thing I don't like is the tires the low profile Band-Aid tires will bust when you hit a bad place in the road
