In this video I walk you through my 58 Bel Air I recently purchased. I also cover the future plans of adding power disc brakes, air ride, wheels, and LS swap.
Nice car. I found 2 bel Air sedans for sale in 2017. Bought them both and frame off restored one. Love the 58s! I put a 396bbc w/ 700 r4 in mine. Neptune blue firemist/ arctic white paint
Beautiful old car! My grandmother had a '58 Biscayne, green & white, similar to this car (with the two taillights in the back, vs. the three on the higher trims). It was a lovely car and I loved the smooth ride.
I had one exactly like this (same exterior 2-tone color & green interior) back in 1974 that I bought from the original elderly owner for $450.00. It was the same color in and out, but mine had the optional 348 big-block V8 coupled to the optional TurboGlide automatic. Cars back then only had a 5-digit odometer, so what looks like only 37k miles is really 137k. Given the amount of oil film & dirt build-up on that 235 engine, there's NO way an engine with only 37k miles would produce that amount of crankcase blow-by.
Please can you tell me how you put your seat belts on the front seat I can’t figure it out the top seat is one piece with the bottom seat I will have to cut holes in seat back

i would drive it as it is
as stated in your previous video my dream car
following
My first car was a Delray, 235 and 3 on the tree, 90mph was top speed. I learned to drive bouncing it off things
That is a real treasure as they did not make that many of that model.
Nice car. Restore rather than modify. "58 owner as well.
Those spots on the seats are called peter tracks

I ❤The 4 Door I'm A 4 Door Guy.
It's in Nice condition
Mine was red over white.
put some nice steal wheals on it with dog dish hub caps and beauty rings
What are you doing with the Maverick?!
I'll be adding a boost controller this spring, possibly switching to E85 as well

I would leave it alone
Is it for sale and what's the price
The color combination in and out is not common. If you have a change of mind I'd be interested in buying it the way it is.
That's Low Mileage Great.
58 had a really UGLY dash..compare it to the same year olds...what a difference!
