For the 1957 model year, a number of visual changes were made to the popular Chevrolet 1/2-ton pickup. The former eggcrate grille was changed to a more open-mouthed design, with eight bars holding an open trapezoid in the center, and a pair of “windsplits” appeared on the hood. Dished steering wheel, safety door locks and strikers, and a more rigidly mounted rear axle were among the other improvements. The V-8 models grew to 283 cubic inches, 160-hp and 270 foot-pounds of torque.
