1958 Chevrolet Notes

Six-cylinder engine: 235.5 cu in Blue-Flame (unchanged); V8: 283 cu in Turbo-Thrust (new, replacing 1957's 265/283 combination), multiple carburetion/output variants.
1958 is a full VIN-series renumbering year across the whole Chevrolet passenger-car line (every series' symbol changed, and the V8 "V"-prefix convention used 1955-1957 was dropped in favor of a unique letter per series+engine combination) -- NOT an engine-driven change. The renumbering reverts partway in 1960+ (a different scheme again, see ChevroletVinDecoder/ config/vin_patterns/chevrolet/1960.yml), so 1958-1959's letter set is unique to these two years.
Model year production 1,226,217 (down 18.68% from 1957); 29.08% domestic market share, 1st place. Introduction date October 1957. Average base price $2,493 (+5.89%).
