OVERVIEW
This 1957 Chevrolet Corvette is powered by a 283ci V8 engine paired with Rochester mechanical fuel injection and a four-speed manual transmission. Features include manual steering and brakes and a convertible top. Finished in red and white with a beige fabric top over a red leather interior, this C1 Corvette is available now and comes from the selling dealer with a Rochester fuel injection manual, service receipts, an uninstalled water pump, and a clear title.

The exterior is finished in red with white coves. Features include chrome bumpers, a chrome grille, fuel injection emblems, stainless windshield trim, a beige convertible top with a red convertible top boot, and dual exhaust outlets that exit through the rear bodywork.

A set of red steel wheels with full hub caps and dual-blade spinners is wrapped in Goodyear Super Cushion whitewall tires.

A 140-mph speedometer, 6K-rpm tachometer, clock, and gauges for the fuel level, coolant temperature, oil pressure, and battery voltage are located ahead of the driver. The odometer reads 41,595 miles, which the selling dealer believes to be accurate.

@jc33cab – I think you have a correct block, 548 casting is right, the 57 DOES NOT have the SN. stamped on the pad. the F219EL , F stands for Flint, 2 is February, 19 is the day , EL 283 HP Fuel car. the casting date of ---A257 also works , A=January, 25 the day (Friday) , 7 = 1957. All looks good , Good Luck ...
Thanks for the insight, that's good news.
