The now ancient DM '57 Chevy BelAir convertible was equipped with a full list of dealer options except fuel injection. Instead it offered the 2X4bbl 270hp 283cid V8 that featured the "Duntov Cam" and solid lifters. It was backed up with a '3 on the tree' manual transmission. What DM didn't offer in this model was an opening trunk, and a fully plumbed and wired engine compartment (which was normal for both Mints in that era).
