(Pics) 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air
The Chevrolet for '57 was a beautiful car and an iconic member of the classic Tri-Fives of '55,'56,'57. Highway 61 produced some superb 1/18 versions, undoubtedly using much of the excellent tooling they had for their fine '57 150 series Chevys.

An iconic STUNNER. The b/w photo looks 1:1. I'm a big 'sedan' fan.
I've thought about this one and a couple others; but, never pulled the trigger.
I 'SO' wish someone had done this in 1:24.
Crown Premium did a beautiful convertible with skirts - which I do have / love. The only one in 1:24 that I've come across.
BTW... outstanding pics.

LOL ! I didn't take that background picture as I was probably far too young to even hold a camera! But I did have model cars, even back then.

Thanks. It's a terrific model and well worth picking up. I have the M2 Machines Chevy hardtop coupe in 1/24 scale and it is really nice and at a bargain price.
