Foreword

This manual is designed to provide the service man with complete information on the construction, operation, maintenance and repair of various units of the 1957 model Chevrolet passenger car.

An effort has been made to produce a manual that will not only serve as a ready reference book for the experienced service man but also cover step-by-step procedure for the guidance of the less experienced man.

The Section Index on the title page enables the user to quickly locate any desired section. At the beginning of each section is a Table of Contents. In those sections that cover more than one major subject, the Table of Contents gives the page number on which the coverage of the subject begins. This arrangement, we believe, will make it easy for the service man to locate the desired information.

The Special Service Tools shown in this manual, or their equivalent, are necessary for the efficient servicing of Chevrolet passenger cars. All tools listed are available through Kent-Moore Organization, Inc., 28635 Mound Rd, Warren, Michigan.

This manual should be kept in a handy place for ready reference. If properly used, it will enable the mechanic to better serve the owners of Chevrolet passenger cars and thereby build or maintain a reputation for reliable service.

All information, illustrations and specifications contained in this literature are based on the latest product information available at the time of publication approval. The right is reserved to make changes at any time without notice.
