eBay Listing: 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Nomad Wagon
The ’57 Chevrolet has a mystique all its own, and yet it seems to many that it is a car so common and coveted that it almost seems ridiculous. Many people want the convertibles of this body style, but coupes and wagons and the highly coveted Nomad also have a strong following. With a great assortment of styles to choose from just within that one year of production, it is always hard to choose just one car to write about.
Often our rag-tag team of gearhead journalists try to choose both the traditional and non-traditional approaches to writing about cars. Today we dare to be different, just like the owners of many a “tri-five Chevrolet,” (another name for Chevrolets built between 1955-1957).
When people talk about Americana and cars that represent that ideal, the ‘57 Chevy is fits in along with apple pie and baseball. While its tail fins might not have been the pinnacle of heights for General Motors, they are iconic nonetheless.
Iconic really is the word to describe a 1957 Chevrolet 150/210 or Bel Air. This pearl orange and silver depot hack would make a great grocery getter or cruise wagon. Pile in the family with its ample space and this car could be just the ticket for those who want a classic, but with a slightly different flair. To some people, driving a unique whip makes it all worthwhile. Get your very own individual slice of Americana by bidding on this Chevrolet wagon and giving it a new home.
