First post..please be gentle.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to find the exact length (bumper to bumper) of a 57 Bel air coupe 210, and the 4 door version?

Just want to check it will fit in my garage.

Thanks people,

2dr hdtp is 200.0 in. 4dr sedan is 200.0 in. 4dr hdtp is 200.0 in. These are out of the "Tri Chevy Red Book".

Thanks for the info and welcomes.

This is great news...it will fit in my garage. They appear surprisingly longer?

Make sure you allow a little over just to be safe

Yep good advise.

I wonder if this measurement is bumper to bumper or fin to nose?

Brilliant.

Thank you.

200 inches is just right. It's the longest measurement you can get. My garage is 570cm long, and 200 inches is 508cm, which leaves me two feet of clearance. (tires for padding by the back wall just to be on the safe side...)

Since all the 57 frames are the same one would beleave the cars are all the same length

But if the car has been driven at high speed, it will have stretched a little.
