Abandoned Cars Part 5: The 1957 Chevrolet Bel-Air

[spockistheman]

I was surprised by the amount of 2 door hardtops. Those are the most desirable and valuable.

this is terrible! good song though. if i had no choice, id buy a four door right now, just to save it! the two doors are hard to find.

[dynamiteguitar]

why have things changed? now it's stupid compact cars that look like vacuum cleaners. the world was happier in those days, man has dominated man to his injury.

[dmanswish]

That is true! These '57s could withstand anything! Hopefully some of the '57s in my video will be reborn sometime and back on the road like in their days.

That's really sad all those 57's rotting away. I bet they could tell loads of stories. I have a surviver 57 210 4 dr sedan that I'm making road worthy again. Still has the original 283 and carter 4 barrel WCFB

@fiddlerpin That is really cool. I agree with you saying all of those '57s could tell lots of stories. These cars are awesome.

@dmanswish I am very sentimental over these 57 chevys. This was and still is a true American Icon of a car. In the 60's and early 70's these cars were everywhere and could be purchased for under 100 bucks! They are now making brand new ones (convertibles) and almost every part for the 2 door models has been reproduced. When the earth is only inhabited by cockroaches I'll bet there will still be a 57 rotting somewhere. LOL
