Please contact us for more information. 1957 CHEVROLET BELAIR
CONVERTIBLE The tri 5\'s have been a huge part of my life ... they
have formed and shaped my life , my tastes , and certainly my
destiny...... that may sound a little overblown to some of you
..... but let me explain .... i was a poor kid , my sister says we
lived in abject poverty but the truth is i never knew it ...some
kids had more toys than i did and later on those same kids grew up
and had cooler cars than i did........ I had to build or fix mine ,
in and out of the local junk yards and they got them because they
got good grades or had no cavities the last time they were at the
dentist...... big shout out to keller\'s junkyard and old man
keller who influenced me almost more than the tri fives For me the
kids that deserved all the respect and got all of my admiration
were the hot rodders that built their own ... the coolest of the
cool were running in some bad ass 55 , 56 , & 57 chevy\'s .....ken
franklin drove an absolutely perfect \'57\' black on black hardtop
belair , he was in a band...drummer no less.and he and his dad
built that car together....... this was in 1966.... now that was
cool ... this kid could have been the fonz....... I would bet that
there are millions of folks in their sixties that feel exactly like
i do ... when i see the tri fives being driven, or restored, or hot
rodded in someone\'s garage it warms the cockles of my heart
....... This 57 is special , actually that word doesn\'t even come
close to describing this rare in color and condition convertible
... no it is not a fuelie . no it is not a hot rod !!!! it is a
meticulously restored 57 convertible with power steering bathed in
tropical turquoise with surf green interior and a white power top.
This car has 1202 miles on the car since the complete restoration
and looks better today than the first day that it rolled off the
showroom floor!!!! wanna play at the shows ...this car gathers a
crowd everywhere Priced very
competitively....................................................../p
