What a great addition to your garage AND wedding, Mitch! And the "running out of gas" just makes a lifetime story to tell the your kids and grandkids. Kinda like it snowing 10" on our wedding night.....in Texas!!!! .... Had to drive 300 miles back home on frozen roads to get to the airport on time the next day! GREAT video, Mitch! A+++++
That's a great car you have Mitch , The Tri Five Chevy forum guys would love this ,and the stories.Congratulations again on the wedding .Back in 67 I bought my first car , had to be and was a57 Chevy ,I bought a 55 BelAir wagon , tons of work and all new interior , It is now in Vegas.Stay safe and keep the videos coming .
Congratulations!!, Mitch I have a 57 BelAir 4 Door Station Wagon. I love it. Great for going to Hershey and Carlisle. I added a brake booster, electric wipers and Classic Air. A no worries drive any where car.
The old 50’s classics were so Americana. This is my favorite model from that era. I was born in 1955 to so I got that goin for me too 😂 Congratulations on your wedding. I wish you many happy years and lotsa babies!! 🎉❤
That was a very heart warming video. And a huge hug to your Grandparents from you. My 1st vehicle was a 55 Chevy, 2nd vehicle was a 67RS Camaro, 3rd 65 Sting Ray. Its good that your family supports your passion, but its great you now have a wife that supports you as well. She is a wonderful girl, you two compliment each other. Sounds like some great projects ahead. Have fun and stay safe, both of you.
Congratulations on your marriage. Really like the story in regards to the 55. I have had several over the years. One of my favorite cars. I really enjoy your Corvette content. Hopefully a C2 Will be in my future. Hang on to your passion.
Congratulations on your wedding and a beautiful survivor 55 Chevy. I would only do mechanical fixes to keep it safe and reliable. Leave the interior and exterior alone in my opinion. It is a nice solid extremely low milage original car that does not come up very often. Good luck Mitch and keep up the good work.
Ohio and New York? There are surprises hiding under the paint. I would already be ordering the sheet metal to convert it to a 2-door. Congrats on your wedding.
Congratulations! Love the Bel-Air. I bought my 56 Bel-Air 4 door when I was 16 (1993) and I still have her. Mine is still 99% factory. I did replace the radiator ( I have the original) and the exhaust manifolds (went with the later horn style)...still using the factory cast iron powerglide
Wow!! I'd kill for that car! My first car back in '66, I was 16 and I got the hand me down '55 chev which my Dad bought in 1956 (Dad always got his cars the next year it was made). It was a plain Bel Air, 235 6 cylinders three in the tree, and yes the bushings were shot. It went from Dad to 2 bro's then to me. By the time I got it, it was on it's last legs (wheels?) but I loved it. Oh yea ,lol,. congrats on your marriage!! Treat her right, be kind to her respect her and wash her every weekend, get regular oil changes and drive safe! And, be good to your wife, lol!
Hey there Mitch, Congrats again on your wedding! That is one sweet chevy! Does it have the "optional" oil filter? I suggest making dern sure the brake lines and wheel cylinders are in good shape, that single circuit master cylinder can make life interesting 😊 Hey, why are you making videos and not off doing that newlywed thing? 😅 Take care, Dan
The one other thing I would do is upgrade the brakes, it is a sweet old car, I have seen too many of them destroyed by a brake pedal that goes straight to the floor at a very inopportune time.

I agree with you. It's a very cherry Chevy.

Get rid of that single pot master cylinder.
