I don't believe I've ever seen one, in person. Have you?
With a wheel change and slightly lowered:
Enjoy!

Here's a great period image of a similar car that was exported. Not a fuel injected example, not even a V8.
This is a factory photo of a pre-production 210 with different side trim. Both are very handsome cars and are refreshingly different from resale red BelAirs with every piece of reproduction chrome trim added.

I recall seeing many of the 6 cyl. and 283 V-8 1957 Chevy 210 sport sedans around back in the day.

@d-crowe: Thanks for sharing those images. The two-tone sport sedan wears side trim that's a cross between 210 and 150 trim, in '57. The black, six cylinder sport sedan would also be a rarity, I imagine. My dad traded our '53 Chevrolet 210 sedan in on a '57 Bel Air sport sedan, similar to this one, in '57. It's the car I started driving (legally) on.
