Does anyone know of a similar website that focuses on older chevy passenger cars? Particularly 50s Bel Aires? I have a buddy who is looking for a 53 for his dad's birthday.

Just returned from a Cruise 2 hours ago where a bud brought the '50 Chevy Bel Air (hard-top) w/powerglide that he brought back from New Mexico on 7/6/08

Just returned from a Cruise 2 hours ago where a bud brought the '50 Chevy Bel Air (hard-top) w/powerglide that he brought back from New Mexico on 7/6/08 In 1950 - the 1st year that the "BEL AIR" name was used - it denoted a 2-door hardtop. Our first family car EVER was a 1953 Bel Air - Woodland Green - 4-dr. sedan. Fender skirts, full disc hubcaps, but NO whitewall tires even though I offered to pay for them. My Dad asked: "Do whitewalls make a car go faster? Do they give better gas mileage?"... "No WHITEWALLS for YOU!"
