    Without question, the 57 is the best looking of the Tri-Fives. You will never convince me otherwise. This one is SWEEEEET!

    Belated Birthday wishes PapaPinto!!! What a great gift the restored '57 Chevy Bel Air was from your family. I am moved by the way all of you have handled the negative remarks about your lil' princess who was so happy to see her daddy. You showed a great deal of restraint but more you showed how real men react to rudeness. Easy to see the love in your family runs deep. That is something to celebrate!! May God bless you with many years with your beautiful family (& driving that Chevy !!). ;o)

I would be a happy person if they built cars like this in London when I was a kid. When I was 19 in 1979 I did own for a short while a Plymouth Sport Fury. Did I get heads turning when I opened that up. Couldn't afford to run it in the end. You guys get a much better deal on your fuel.
