  • Is that the old Johan Models Building?

  • @pepperkitty I wouldn't know, they aren't there any longer. It was Cindy Street in Ocean, NJ, across from the Jaguar service center and next to a cabinet store.

  • i always thought these cars were long like the chevy impalas when i was younger til i saw one in person. these cars are small

  • @AvenueD417 Yeah, funny how the nose and trunk make em look big - the back seat has very little leg room and with the stock steering wheel, my knee hits it every time I shift...

  • Out of curiosity, what does it cost (I know this is a broad target) to restore a Bel Air? I would love to buy one and have it professionally fixed up..

  • @nldekker For a car in decent shape, expect to pay 30-40 grand. A show car is about 70-100 grand. Mine is about in the middle of the two. If you get a rusto-rod and do it yourself, expect to pay a lot in unexpected repairs.

  • @RoninAvenger -driven weekly, sometimes hundreds of miles to shows, your profile lists your occupation as wizard??? I'm betting my 57 sees more daylight than you mr. dungeonmaster.

  • @lslb2010 Thanks, and no chrome - all powdercoated/ endurashine or ceramic so it won't rust and is easy to keep clean!

  • @nldekker o be honest with you man if you cant fix cars take your money go learn how to because the price of that n the cost to restore one your self will be less then to get one professionaly restored n i mean ALOT less

  • @tommynights you guys did an excellent job on this car though, these things are icons of the 50's. i like how it was kept with the sleeper look. stock appearance with dangerous power. thumbs up
