HIGHLIGHTS: Beautifully restored 1957 Chevrolet Cameo Carrier pickup Cardinal Red with white accents and matching red/white interior 283ci V8 engine with Hydra-Matic automatic transmission Wood bed floor, oil bath air cleaner, and correct factory-style detailing Believed to have traveled under 220 miles since restoration Same owner 30+ years! BODY OVERVIEW: The 1957 Chevrolet Cameo Carrier was never just a work truck - it was a statement. With its signature fiberglass bed and refined trim, the Cameo blurred the line between utility and luxury. This example has been restored to a high standard, with all the right lines, gaps, and trim in place. It presents as a true showpiece and an authentic representation of mid-century Chevrolet styling. The body is extremely straight, and overall this truck presents beautifully as a high-caliber classic! PAINT CONDITION OVERVIEW: Finished in classic Cardinal Red with crisp white accents, this Cameo radiates vintage charm. The paint shows extremely well and maintains a deep gloss throughout, with imperfections at an extreme minimum. Although restored in the early 1990s, proper storage and occasional use has kept the finish looking fresh and vibrant, with only the most minor signs of age to be found. Its hard to believe this restoration is over 30 years old! Kept tucked away in a private collection for over 30 years, it's no surprise this Cameo looks as good as it ds. INTERIOR CONDITION OVERVIEW: Step inside and youre greeted with a period-correct red and white interior that ties in beautifully with the trucks exterior. From the bench seat to the painted dashboard and trim, everything feels cohesive and thoughtfully finished to achieve that 1950s time machine feel. The cabin shows very little use since restoration, and its clear that this truck has been treated with care since the day it rolled out of the restoration shop. MECHANICAL OVERVIEW: Under the hood sits a factory-style 283ci V8 paired to a Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. The engine bay is dressed with all the correct vintage components, including an oil bath air cleaner, Delco-Remy generator, AC Delco radiator cap, and more. It starts easily, runs smoothly, and the glasspack muffler adds a touch of old-school attitude to its soundtrack. Mechanically, this truck appears to be ready to enjoy! WHAT YOULL LOVE ABOUT THIS CAR: Eye-catching period-correct color combo with show-stopping style High-quality restoration with accurate factory attributes One of the most stylish pickups of the 1950s!
