Hey, my next door neighbor has that very car in the garage next to my fence. It was his dad's.

I got an email today with pics of a 1950 Chev coupe with 437 miles on it. Needless to say, it is perfect. The original owner died and his wife parked it.

If I died, it would take my wife all of about 30 seconds to sell my cars and go buy clothes with the money.......

ONLY '49-'51 Fords are called a Shoebox.

Repeat after me..."A '55-'57 Chevy IS NOT a Shoebox".
'55-'57 Chevys are "Tri-5's"
'49-'54 Chevys are "Rockstars".

It sold at the BJ Auction in Scottsdale for $28k...
Here's a link from June of '09 when it had been listed on Ebay;

And it now has 439 miles...
