Chevy’s popular Bel Air is a full-size car that ran for eight generations between 1950 and 1981. It’s particularly renowned as a popular 50's and 60's classic. But did you know that the Chevy Bel Air even had a stint as being Knight Rider’s KITT? Yes, for the movie Knight Rider 2000, Michael Knight briefly installs KITT’s systems in his personal 1957 Chevy Bel Air after discovering that the iconic Trans Am body is no more. So, if you buy this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air, we won’t judge you for trying to talk to it. After all, having covered just 20,500 miles, this car is bound to be waiting to stretch its legs on long drives.
Wearing a lustrous red coat of paint, this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air looks a 60's treat, with its ample servings of chrome trim, single podded headlamps, and finned design. The work of the legendary Bill Mitchell at General Motors, this car’s looks are further elevated by its Cragar SS-style wheels, which are a popular upgrade for cars from this period. Open a door and you’ll enter a suitably Fifties interior with bench seats at the front and rear. The large glasshouse and slim pillars make for an airy experience, while the wood-rimmed, metal-spoked steering wheel frames a bevy of analog gauges that hark back to a simpler time, when digital wasn’t even a word. However, you’ll find something digital in this cabin; there’s a newer digital radio with an amplifier for some modern music. The gauges are reported to be high performance units, and there’s a Hurst shifter to grip as you row the car’s manual transmission through its four speeds.
This 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air packs a 383ci Stroker V8, driving the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission and a Currie rear end. Hence, you can call up burnouts at will, or deploy all that power accurately and enjoy eye-widening acceleration. Just bear in mind that the car has drum brakes, so you’ll need to plan your braking a bit, if driving in a sprightly fashion. Alternatively, you could cruise along to the rumble of the V8 and enjoy the experience at a slower pace.

Long tail fins, luxurious design, lots of chrome, Ferrari-inspired design features, and its iconic seven-generation production history undoubtedly made the Chevrolet Bel Air a seminal piece of automotive history. Throughout its lengthy production period, Chevrolet developed Bel Airs for everyone. There were versions made for racing fanatics, those who sought luxury, and many more. You could choose from a grand tourer, a two-door hardtop, a convertible, or a budget fleet sedan. From this broad collection, what we have brought to you here is a four-door hardtop Chevrolet Bel Air from the model year 1957, making it one of the models that are commonly referred to as Tri Fives. This beauty is located in Barnegat Township, New Jersey. As an almost 70-year-old car, it is in sublime condition.
Named after the swanky Bel Air neighborhood in Los Angeles, it’s not hard to see what Chevy’s aspirations were with this model. Introduced for the 1950 model year, the Bel Air was Chevrolet’s full-size top-tier offering for many years. Initially produced as a two-door hardtop, the range soon expanded into sedans and convertibles too. Now, the Bel Air makes a fine restoration platform, due to its iconic Fifties design. That’s what this 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-Door Sedan is, and it’s waiting for a new owner. Is that you, then?
One of the Bowtie’s most recognizable nameplates in its storied history is the Bel Air. The Chevrolet Bel Air was a full-size car introduced in 1950, moving from a trim level to a fully fledged model. 1961 saw the introduction of an all-new body style for the Bel Air, most notably identified by the sedan’s large wrap-around rear window vs the hardtop’s different roof line. Our featured car has a reported 36,134 miles on it and is powered by a 283ci V8 engine. All maintenance is reportedly up to date, making this classic Chevy a particularly desirable example.
One of the most popular nameplates to come from the Bowtie brand, the Chevrolet Delray debuted for the 1950 model year, as the automaker’s flagship full-size offering. It would run for thirty years, and eight generations. The nameplate wasn’t only seen in the United States, but saw prominence in Canada and Australia too. Of course, the most desirable of the Delrays are the earlier ones, particularly those from the fifties. That makes this 1958 Chevrolet Delray 2-Door Sedan an excellent classic car to experience what American motoring from was like.
Chevy released the third-generation (or C3) Corvette in 1968, and the public lost their minds. Here was a car that was basically 80% concept, its lines lifted straight from Larry Shinoda’s Mako Shark II of 1965. Interestingly, the C3 Corvette was released in Hot Wheels form a few weeks before its official release by GM – in a GM-authorized move with Mattel, owners of the Hot Wheels brand. That’s why getting your hands on this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a smart move since less than 29,000 units were made that year. This car comes to you from Florida with a fully rebuilt engine and is reportedly an example with all numbers matching.
With its bold styling and raw performance, the Chevrolet Camaro 2SS Manual is a true icon of the modern muscle car age. Harking from a long lineage of V8-powered legends, this 2014 Camaro SS is equipped with a host of performance upgrades, making it a potent yet comfortable daily driver.

Late 50s Chevys and mid 60s Cadillacs have always been popular candidates for restomod projects. However, not all of them are tastefully done like this fully restored 1965 Cadillac de Ville convertible restomod. 1965 was the first model year for the 3rd generation De Ville. It retained the same wheelbase as its predecessor, but the frame was a new perimeter frame (rather than the old X frame). The horizontal headlamp arrangement that had been standard since the late 50s was dropped in favor of a vertical arrangement, which also resulted in a wider grille. Gone were the softer lines of the old car, replaced by a sharper, more boxy design. The tailfins that had started shrinking since 1960 were now lower and slanted slightly downwards rather than slightly upwards. The new straight lines in its design make this car just as good looking with the top down as it does with the top up.
