Last summer I had my 57 Chevy road worthy long enough to take it to a car show for the first time. I entered it in the Unfinished category so I could be part of the fun. I had a great time talking to the people who stopped to look at my car and hearing …
The first time I saw my Bel Air, I wasn’t looking to buy it. It belonged to a friend of mine and I was just there to take pictures of it. That is one of the things like to do, take pictures of old cars. My buddy offered to sell it to me for $10,000. …
