And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms.

Some people just have to comment without any knowledge whatsoever. My 56 two door post was a 265 cubic inch power pack. A two four option was also available. In 57 it was 283 with single four, two four and fuel injection options. All could be ordered in different body styles. ( Not to dismiss anyone's comment...there is so much info and most people have been told bs over the years that it becomes " common knowledge ". )There are many websites that are easy to find this information..As many of these cars as I've owned and restored I still find things I didn't know.

That's beautiful. I would imagine he gets lots of thumbs up when he's putting around town on his weekend excursions.
ReplyDeleteWould you look at that Chevrolet badge on the trunk. Wow.
I was born in 1957 - in Chinese lore, 1957 is The Year Of The Chevy.
