1957 Chevrolet 210 Two-Door Sedan
Positioned as Chevrolet’s middle-tier offering for 1957, the 210 series bridged the gap between the economy 150 and the luxury Bel Air. This sedan became Chevy’s most popular model line that year, with series production totaling 651,358 units.
The 210 sedan featured the same dramatic fins and wraparound windshield that defined 1957 Chevrolet styling. It shared bright body-side trim with the top-of-the-line Bel Air, but lacked its gold-tone accents and ribbed aluminum quarter-panel inserts. The distinctive wedge-shaped side molding was painted either body color or in a contrasting shade with two-tone packages.
New for 1957 was the optional 283 cubic inch small-block V8, available in several versions, including a four-barrel carburetor and Rochester Ramjet fuel injection. Most 210 sedans were equipped with either the base 235 cubic inch inline-six or the 265 cubic inch V8.
The four-door sedan provided practical family transportation with classic 1950s American styling at a more accessible price point than premium models. The two-door sedan on the other hand was more popular with hot rodders due to its lighter weight.
