Vehicle Detail
Up for bid is a very nice 57 bel air with a built bbc a muncie 4 speed and a 12 bolt posi rear end. The car is not perfect but, is also not covering or hiding anything. It has the usual rust spots in the usual places for a 57 year old vehicle. The carpet is nice and the floors do have some small rust areas underneath. ( Not hanging or falling through by any means ) The trunk floor is solid and has spare and jack in place. The interior is in nice shape. The heater works as well as the dome light and even the horn.

Also the front end has been completely rebuilt with all new parts as well as the brakes and new clutch assemble. All glass is good except passenger door glass is cracked they do roll up and down properly. This car came factory with a 283 3 speed and as far as I can tell has always been black. The car is for sale locally and auction may end at any time before receiving a bid on the eBay listing. However, once a bid has been placed car will sell only through eBay. No reserve bid to win.Thanks for looking and happy bidding. I have added some pictures of the trunk pan one with the cover made to cover the speaker wires and some without. The car has air shocks. Also pictures of the engine compartment and a couple of the interior. I was told when I purchased this car it was a 468 with good rods forged pistons and roller cam. When we picked the car up the seller said his machine shop who had done the work for his dad said it was a stroked 496. The car sounds awesome and very strong. He had owned the car for several years and was the one who had removed the factory 283. The registration was dated back in the 70's. The car now has a clear Oklahoma title up to date in my name.
