THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW IN THE STATE OF ALABAMA WHERE IT HAS SPENT ITS ENTIRE LIFE. MY UNCLE PURCHASED FROM THE ORIGIONAL OWNER IN EARLY 2000. AFTER SPENDING OVER 35 YEARS OWNING HIS OWN BODY REPAIR SHOP HIS DREAM WAS TO SELL OUT, RETIRE AND BUILD HIMSELF A 1957 CHEVROLET BEL AIR. AFTER HIS LOSS WITH CANCER IN EARLY 2014 I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE 3 MONTHS LATER TO KEEP WITHIN THE FAMILY AND TO FINISH THE TASK HE HAD STARTED.

THIS IS THAT VEHICLE!!

THE VEHICLE WAS 99% RUST FREE. THE CAR IS CONSIDERED AN FRAME UP RESTORATION, PICTURES WAS TAKEN DURING THIS PROCESS BUT SINCE HIS WIFE AND PASSED AND WE ARE HAVING DIFFICULITY LOCATING SCRAP BOOK PICTURES. I WILL TRY AND LIST SOME OF THE ITEMS THAT HAVE BEEN DONE.

MICHELIN 18 TIRES, BILLET SPECIALITY THRUST III WHEELS, A/C, FRONT DISK BRAKES, ALUMINUM RADIATOR, RADIATOR MOVED TO THE FRONT OF COWLING FOR BETTER COOLING OF A/C AND ENGINE, ELECTRIC WIPERS, HEADERS, ENTERPRISE BATTERY, EDELBROCK 650 CFM CARBURATOR, ELECTRONIC ENGINE, FANTASTIC INTERIOR, ALL NEW WIRING, UPGRADED LIGHTING, AUXILIARY ELECTRIC FAN. CAR RUNS AROUND 185 TEMP. I DO HAVE A VIDEO OF ME DRIVING THE CAR.

THIS IS NOT A 100 POINT SHOW CAR.THERE IS A DISTINCT DIFFERENCE OF WHERE HE PAINTED AND WHERE HE DID NOT. HE PAINTED MOST OF THE VEHICLE ALL FOR THE EXCEPTION OF THE OVERALL EXTERIOR. WHEN THE TIME CAME TO PAINT THE EXTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE HIS CANCER HAD PROGRESSED TO THE POINT ALL HE COULD DO WAS TO WATCH.THE WHITE TOP LOOKS GREAT THE TURQUOISE IS 70%

NOW MY HEALTH HAS REACHED A POINT WHERE I CAN NO LONGER ENJOY OWNING THE CAR. NO ONE IN THE FAMILY HAS INTEREST SO I MUST SELL IT.
