Vehicle Detail

Up for auction is my 1957 Chevy Belair Sport Coupe. This car was recently taken out of storage after 28 years! Recently underwent extensive mechanical repairs.Here are the highlights of what was done:New cap, rotor, wires fuel filter, rebuilt the 650 Holley carb. Replaced the fuel pump, fuel lines, fuel tank, straps and fuel sender. Replaced valve covers with new Corvette covers. All the brakes were done, wheel cylinders , brake lines, brake hoses, brake shoes, rebuilt master cylinder. The rear end was rebuilt, replaced bearings ,seals And gaskets gear is 355:1.The wheels and tires were replaced with newer Cragars and tires, the old wheels , hub caps and fender skirts are available. The interior on this car is in great condition and is all original except for the carpet was replaced. The dash and trim still has its original paint and it looks great, all of the interior stainless is in excellent condition. Everything works as it should, it has aftermarket gauges installed under the dash and the dash is not cut up in any way. The dash lights, dome light, indicators, heater and 8 track all still work. The clock does not work and the am radio works intermittently. Turn signals, horn, brake lights, headlights, electric wipers all work as well. Glass is all in excellent condition. This car is a blast to drive and is very dependable. It goes down the road straight and has plenty of power from the 327 V-8 four barrel and Turbo 350 trans. the engine runs smooth and looked rebuilt when the valve covers were replaced. It is spotless inside and does not smoke. I put on over 600 miles since it came out of storage. You can drive and enjoy this car while restoring it.The frame is solid. The floors, rocker panels and quarter panels were worked on by an amateur body man and will need to be redone. There are some body supports that also need attention. Although there are rust issues with the floors and body supports, the car is still safe to operate as it has a full frame and it is in good shape. The trunk floor is in good condition, as I saw it when the fuel tank was replaced. The side panels in the trunk were patched as well. It looks like there was minimal rust on the sides and the previous owner used fiberglass to patch the rust and under coated over it. Hood, doors , trunk, roof, firewall is all in very nice condition.All of the exterior stainless is in good shape and the front bumper is a one piece California bumper. All of the trim on this car can be reused and or restored. There is very little on this car that needs replacement. I am careful to explain all of the good and bad about my listings, I would rather loose a sale than have someone disappointed in their purchase. My feed back is now and has always been 100 percent. I will answer any and all questions honestly and to the best of my ability. I highly encourage you to come and see the vehicle or have it inspected prior to bidding. The car is being sold As-Is Where is, with no warranty expressed or implied. Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer and a $500.00 non refundable deposit is required within 48 hours of auction end. Car is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time if the car sells. Car is sold with a Connecticut bill of sale as Connecticut does not issue titles for vehicles over 25 years old. LOW RESERVE! GOOD LUCK BIDDING.
