Overview of 1957 Chevrolet 150 Handyman 2-Door Wagon For Sale by Owner

Chevrolet offered the 150 model line-up from 1953 to 1957. The 150 was Chevy’s economy or budget offering, aimed at helping Americans acquire mobility in a cost-effective manner. Produced over two generations, the 150 was offered as a coupe, wagon or sedan. Today, we’ve got a wagon variant of the second generation 150, aptly named the 1957 Chevrolet 150 Handyman. This car comes from Belleville, New Jersey. The current owner informs us that included with the sale is some interior components that are all new and in their boxes, plus the car’s shop manual. With its simplistic mechanicals and quintessentially Fifties styling, this car is perfect for someone looking to buy their first classic car. Read on to discover what it offers.

Exterior and Interior

This 1957 Chevrolet 150 Handyman wears a two-tone green paintwork, which is very Fifties and looks fabulous as a result. You’ll also notice that it’s a two-door wagon; a rather unusual body style since wagons tend to be four-door. The key lies in the car’s name; Handyman. Yes, this vehicle was aimed more at small business owners and self-employed tradespersons, rather than families. However, that doesn’t mean that the vehicle is spartan. You’ve still got plenty of chrome, including chrome bumpers, chrome hubcaps on 14-inch color-matched steel wheels, and of course, chrome exterior trim. The interior of this 1957 Chevrolet 150 Handyman continues the green theme, and comes with two rows of bench seats. Yes, even though it’s a two-door car, you’ve got a suitably roomy rear seat to carry the family around when needed. Behind the rear seat lies a really spacious cargo area that, given the car’s Handyman name, will no doubt have been used to carry all manner of equipment in its heyday. The interior retains much of its period persona, save for an upgraded Pioneer head unit with CD player, and some aftermarket speakers placed in the rear.

Engine

This 1957 Chevrolet 150 Handyman comes with a thrifty 235.5ci straight six engine, driving the rear wheels via a 3-speed manual transmission. We’re told that the car has received an aluminum radiator as well, to help keep it running efficiently.

1998 Chevrolet Camaro Z28

For Sale
ASK: $13,299
Miles: 219,621
Estimated: $124.22/mo

The 1998 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 marked a major turning point for Chevrolet's legendary pony car, introducing the aluminum-block LS1 V8 and bringing a new level of performance to the fourth-generation F-body platform. Finished in Arctic White over Dark Gray, this particular Z28 stands out with an extensive engine and drivetrain rebuild performed by LSxperts at approximately 198,000 miles. According to the current owner, the entire drivetrain was rebuilt, including engine reboring, returning the mechanical components to a refreshed condition approximately 21,000 miles ago. While the chassis shows approximately 219,621 miles, the rebuilt powertrain has accumulated only around 21,600 miles since the work was completed. Performance enhancements include a Brian Tooley Racing Stage 1 camshaft kit, upgraded cooling components, a true dual glass-packed exhaust system, and dyno tuning to complement its modified LS1 powerplant. Paired with a 6-speed manual transmission, removable T-top roof panels, and factory 16-inch chrome aluminum wheels, it delivers the ingredients that made the LS-powered Camaro a favorite among American performance enthusiasts. Additional highlights include a customized audio system, ambient interior lighting, and available vehicle build documentation. For enthusiasts who appreciate naturally aspirated V8 performance, the involvement of a manual gearbox, and the extensive tuning potential of the LS platform, this Z28 offers an exciting combination of classic F-body character and a substantially refreshed drivetrain.
