1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-Door Sedan For Sale - Buyers Guide & NADA Values

This photograph shows two paper documents taped inside the driver's-side window of a heavily weathered/patina'd two-door sedan offered for sale. The left document is a standard FTC Buyers Guide window form filled out by hand for a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air, VIN VB570131905, dealer stock number 20923, with the "AS IS-NO WARRANTY" box checked, meaning the buyer pays all repair costs. The form includes the standard unchecked WARRANTY and SERVICE CONTRACT sections, blank Systems Covered/Duration fields, and the pre-purchase inspection advisory. The right document is a NADAguides.com web printout dated 4/1/2015 for a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2 Door Sedan, listing an original base MSRP of $2,338 and current retail values of $13,250 (low), $21,600 (average), and $42,000 (high). A hand-written asking price of $9,995.00 is marked across the printout. A reader learns the vehicle's identity, VIN, as-is sale terms, book values as of 2015, and the seller's asking price. Note: although filed under a 1968 Ford Mustang, the documents clearly pertain to a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air.
