Snapshot I took yesterday

[Snake Farm]

Went to a family reunion yesterday. Stopped on my way home and snapped this pic of the '57

....40-45 years ago I would have been standing in that shed every morning waiting for the school bus to take me to school where I sat and drew pics of cars.....

.....just reminiscing a little.

That's one nice 57. The bright work is amazing.
I used to draw front engine dragsters and 68 Mustangs.

Nice car! All I drew in school was flies. I loved cars but could not draw them well.

Thanks guys for the kind words, glad you liked the pic and little story.

[S Not sure but I'm slowly getting it off there a little chip at a time This car was driven approx. 500 miles in the twelve or so years my wife's parents had it and I noticed the other evening that I've put about 700 on it since last September.

See !!!! Dreams DO come true !!!!![cl

Even better than that Don! I never dreamed that my Father In-law would just up and give me that car.

Thanks Trip, me too! I know everybody and his brother has a '57 and half of them are turquoise and white but it's a combo I never tire of and with a matching interior it's always bright in this car even on a rainy day!

School???

Oh yeah....I 'member skool. [S

Hey Ray. I used to draw 55-6-7s in school...but that was IN 55-6-7 ! BTW, I have owned over 35 Tri-five Chevys. (When you are as old as I am, it ain't hard to do.) I always found the four doors to be better cars than the 2 doors. They didn't rust as bad as the 2 drs. Really nice ride....enjoy, buddy.
