Two different cars. The second photo is a car with black wall tires and Cragar Wheels.
Beautiful car. Got my driver's license in 57 Chevy.

It's really a work of art and the photos do it justice!!
Certainly is Mike. Nice shots!
My 8-miles-down-the-road buddy Kent Perkins (aka Mr Kent Ruth Buzzi) has Steve McQueen's 1957 Chevy. Today is supposed to be a nice fall day in the Cross Plains of Texas. Think I will boogie down there and see if I can touch it.

Pretty car but I still prefer the '56
I had a "55" with a 409 stuffed into it.... Battery had to go in trunk... no room up front.
That looks exactly like the car my mother got new in '57...except for the hub caps. When she got her '59, she gave me the '57. I then sold the '55 she had given me and I kept the '57 for 3 years.
Back in the '70's, my neighbor's boyfriend showed up in a very clean '55 or '56 Chevy. The only thing I remember thinking was, "It is nice, but it is NOT a '57! Great photos of a true classic!
What a beautiful car! I had a '57, canyon corel, chevy station wagon when I was younger. Beautiful car. Unfortunately, no photos that I can find. Your car is really dazzling!!!

A true classic, very fine set.
A great car.
I think there is nothing like having owned a
‘57 Chevrolet Belaire as a youth.
The pride of cruising thru town in a car that you (purchased) with your own, hard-earned dollars and sporting a paint job that you saved up for by [after school] jobs, one of the best feelings for a young man.
