Curiously, this one has the Bel Air ribbed trim, but no three finger trim at the front fender and missing rocker panel trim |

it's a probably a 210 model, the "middle" range of the 1957's. A Bel Air would also have the chrome trim atop the tail fin run all the way to the C-pillar. The ribbed trim was either an option, or added / replaced later, when the previous owner painted it that horrid aqua / white color scheme that it was at the start of the episode. lol |

I believe they made a comment about this being a "210" modified to look like a BelAir..978 Jeeper is correct about the tail fin chrome. Also missing the three "gold" trim pieces in the gills on the front fenders, chrome over the door frames and the upgraded dashboard. |

Can we say this is 1957 Chevrolet Two-Ten with Bel Air trim? Comments are welcome. |

It appears to have regained both the tail fin chrome and the front fender trim : http://www.flickr.com/photos/anton41/7358947988/lightbox/ |

On the unrestored car the marks of the missing trim are also visible: Now foolishly in Ferrari yellow, when they had the option to go for the original Chevrolet colour, a more suited light yellow. |

@chicomarx: the unrestored version does shows that is indeed 1957 Chevrolet Two-Ten, model 2103 due to only trim at all 4 door window still, absence trim at the rocker panel, absence three finger trim and finally a 'Two-Ten' script at the center of the steering wheel. My guess the owner slapped the ribbed trim and 'Bel Air' script at the rear fender |

"Now foolishly in Ferrari yellow, when they had the option to go for the original Chevrolet colour, a more suited light yellow." Wrong. The car looks great in Ferrari yellow, especially because of the bright chrome and Torque Thrust II wheels. |

Wrong. A pastel colour would've looked better on a fifties car. The wheels are disgraceful. |
