The car is a ’58 Chevy Bel Air. Jim had a ’58 Chevy Impala when we were married in 1962. In 2006, after being involved with various hot rods, we decided it would be great if we could find a ’58 Chevy. We mentioned it to a friend who had a car collection and he said he had this ’58 Bel Air hardtop. It had been a complete body off restoration to an original stock rebuild. The car had been campaigned in 2004-2005. Of course we fell in love with it. After we purchased the car, Jim decided to rebuild the car to a modified custom which included engine upgrade, suspension upgrade, new upholstery, power brakes, power windows, air conditioning and some modified body alterations. We’ve won many awards but most of all we enjoy driving it!
