In 1955 Chevrolet began production of the second generation of the Bel Air. Chevrolets produced from 1955 to 1957 are commonly referred to as “Tri-Five” Chevrolets. Interestingly enough, each year of the “Tri-Five” Chevrolets can be differentiated by their unique front end. For the 1957 model year, Chevrolet once again chose to restyle their car, this time it was in an effort to compete with the all-new 1957 Ford. The redesigned Chevrolets featured design cues borrowed from Cadillac. The car was very well received, and today the 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air has gained the reputation as one of the most iconic cars of the ‘50s.

This 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Townsman Wagon is the four-door version, while the Nomad name was reserved for the two-door Bel Air wagons this year. This car is presented in red with beautiful accenting brightwork throughout the vehicle. The car rides on BFGoodrich tires which are mounted on steel wheels with factory-style hubcaps. Additional exterior features include the distinctive rear fender detail panels, side window wind and rain guards, dual sideview mirrors and dual exhaust. The wagon is powered by a 283-cid V-8 engine which is connected to a column-shift automatic transmission. The interior is completed in gray and features front and rear bench seating.
