In 1957 the new Corvette took a giant stride forward with the introduction of the new Ramjet Fuel Injection. This was at the time, the most advanced performance feature ever offered on an American production engine. The Ramjet Fuel Injection, an efficient constant flow system that eliminated the carburetor, delivered fuel directly to the cylinders for instantaneous accelerator response, greater overall fuel economy, higher low-speed torque and smoothness, ease of starting and overall improvement of engine performance, was sensational. In one bold stroke the 1957 Chevrolet Corvette provided a new dimension of driving pleasure.  This 57 Corvette is an 8-9 year old restoration that presents itself very well. This is a non-numbers matching car with a 283cid V8, Fuel Injected engine and upgraded to a 4-speed manual transmission. Finished in Venetian Red with red interior and white top. As a daily driver, this Corvette runs and drives nice. Video available at www.bendparkandsell.com Dealer# DA2496
