This great book is about the 1955 Chevy, 1956 Chevy and the 1957 Chevy. The 1955 model Chevy had the first V8 option since 1918. The 265 V8 was the forerunner of the 283-307-327-350-400 engines that followed. The body was squared off with a wraparound windshield. By 1957 fins were introduced in keeping with the era and a major introduction was the Turboglide automatic transmission.
Most of the engine options were in the high performance category. In this period Chevrolet established a reputation for equipment that easily adapted to racing. This book consists of road tests, technical and specification data, model introductions, consumer analysis, history, engines and transmissions and chassis reworking.
