I came across this car when a co worker told me his dad had an old Chevy in his garage that he needed to get rid of. I made arrangements to see the car not knowing what year, model, or condition the mystery Chevy would be in. When Bob ( my co worker’s dad and the original owner of the car ) opened the garage door I saw my ‘54 Belair for the first time. The car had been sitting for decades but was in remarkable shape. I struck a deal for the shameful price of $700 and drug it home complete with original purchase order. Over the next year I rebuilt the mechanicals of the car but didn’t paint or pretty anything up except for the wheels and ( tape ) pin stripe flames. The car has it’s original 235” inline six with a three speed on the column, original paint, and interior. It’s a blast to drive and while it’s not the fastest or best handling car I have, it is my favorite. My dad loves it too as you can see in the picture.
