One of the most recognized icons in the automotive industry, the '57 Bel Air introduced minor improvements from the previous year like more chrome and and featured a golden grille set off with a heavy chrome bar that included parking lights. The rear fins were capped with chrome moldings and highlighted with anodized aluminum side trim panels. The fuel-filler door was was even concealed in the left rear chrome fin to clean up the lines of the car.

This car is a real dream! I wish I had one in such a fantastic condition! I know that this does not matter at all but I wonder how much it consumes?

I don't know the numbers but not to much, it is a small block crate engine so about 15 mpg!
