How cool is this!

A genuine New Zealand New Right Hand Drive 57 Chevy Bel -Air!

This magnificent old survivor has managed to remain pretty much true to her original form having clearly been treated with respect over the last 60 years, and is a remarkable time capsule taking you straight back to much simpler times, when fins were in!

Originally sold new in Gore in June of 1957 this old darling has been around the South Island for a number of years before more recently being purchased by a local CH CH classic car restorer and mechanical engineer who has gone right through her and brought her up to the lovely standard she is presented in today.

The clean original and very solid old body appears to have never been off the original chassis, although this example has been treated to a very thorough renovation by its latest custodian including all new two tone paintwork over the straight body, with new chrome, n.o.s stainless side trim, new tinted glass, and a mix of excellent original trim and new carpeting, hood liner, and a replacement reduced steering wheel for driver comfort rounding out the package.

The sweet running 283 V8 that resides in the engine bay has clearly had previous work as it ticks over faultlessly, shifting through a smooth all syncro 3 speed, with power brakes, and having just returned from a decent road trip from CH CH to the Beach Hop in Whangamata and back with absolutely no issues whatsoever, is generally an absolute delight to drive.

All new dyna matting and under felt has been fitted throughout the interior and all new weather seals have also been fitted throughout to ensure a nice quite ride is obtained.

The interior which retains its original seat trim and door panels shows just how good this old car was before receiving the recent makeover, and a full new set of lap and diagonal seat belting has been installed along with an integrated sound system for further driver comfort and safety.

Rolling on period style American Racing polished alloys with proper wide whites this old girl really looks the part, and also available are the original wheels and hub caps if you with to take her right back to the stock appearance.

A very special and rare survivor being factory RHD and Kiwi new, these cars are now very desirable in this configuration, and in this condition almost impossible to find.....

Quite simply better than money in the bank, and possibly a lot more fun!

Full LVVTA certification for the sympathetic modifications that have been carried out, and anyone who has restored a Big Fifties car will appreciate how much it costs to get them fully sorted and looking this good.....

Inspection will impress, a very rare opportunity...
