350-Powered 1957 Chevrolet 210 2-Door Sedan

Description

The iconic 1957 Chevrolet is celebrated for its jet-age styling, with sweeping fins, a curvaceous body, and distinctive hood-mounted rockets. This landmark vehicle came in a range of body styles — including two- and four-door sedans, convertibles, and wagons — but it’s the two-door models that remain the most sought-after.

Sans the Bel Air’s gold trim, the 210 featured a more understated look: silver accents on the grille, nose, emblems, and fins. There were no louvers on the front fender, nor stainless fin inserts in the rear; instead, shorter brightwork and smaller wheel covers gave it a cleaner profile. Inside, the cabin offered a comfortable bench seat, a large central speedometer framed by the steering wheel, and a solid dashboard adorned with a silver Chevrolet script.

Under the hood, drivers could choose between a reliable six-cylinder or one of two V8s — in 265 or 283 cubic inches — paired with either a three-speed manual transmission or the smooth-shifting two-speed Powerglide automatic.

This ’57 210 swapped its original engine for a 350 cu-in V8 with an auto transmission. The exterior features a repaint, updated brightwork, and aftermarket chrome wheels. And the interior wears new upholstery along with upgraded instruments in the factory cluster.

Ownership History
