I fell in love with the '56 Belvedere-- aqua with white top and SportTone, original upholstery with the metallic thread, on the doors too, all looked good except the driver's seat. At $2,900 OBO it seemed like a good deal. Paint was presentable but had some nicks and thin spots. The wife, she who must be obeyed, pulled me away with a few pithy words. Was planning to meet Roger Howard, but missed connections.
