About this car: It is a 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-Dr Hard Top. It was purchased in 1998 in Louisiana as a father/son project car for me and my dad. After a long search for a car, we finally found this one under our noses. It was in the garage of a friend of ours. Talking to another friend about cars, he told us about this one he knew about. Our friend (with the '57) wanted to get it out of his garage because his wife was nagging him for her parking spot back. We had the car towed to our house and......Let the restoration (a.k.a. magic money disappearing machine) begin!!! Hahahaha

Sweet ride! 5 stars. If your interested in a custom drawing of your car or maybe just a print of another, please check out my site at www.SketchesByChrisM.com One would look great next to your ride at a car show or just to display on your wall at your home, garage or shop. Thanks -Chris (SBC)

What size rims are you running. I can see that they are staggered. I am currently looking for a set for my dad's 57 to clear the brake setup I got him. If you know the size/width and offset front and rear that would be very helpful.
