"One horsepower per cubic inch" was Chevrolets claim when they installed their new "Ramjet" fuel injection on the new for "57" 283 cubic inch V8 engine. Fewer than seventy Bel Air convertibles were assembled with this option; this is one of them. A rare Los Angeles built automobile, it is exemplary in every way, from the Tropical turquoise finish to the matching turquoise/ivory upholstery.
This example features a close ratio three-speed manual column shift transmission, as they were standard on fuel injected models. Its highlights include power top, deluxe heater, radio & clock, Soft-ray tinted glass, back-lights, 800-14 Firestone tires, and dual exhausts.
