Al and Peggy's Corner: What Is Your Favorite Old Car? Guess Before You Look!

What Is Your Favorite Old Car? Guess Before You Look!

What Is Your Favorite Old Car? Guess Before You Look!

We were just going through a few pictures we had picked up over the Summer.  Yes Summer as short as it may have been.

We came across some photos that we took at the Orillia car show, and guess what one car stood our the most.

Orillia Car Show

Have you ever gone to a car show and not seen a 1957 Chey, looks sharp in this orange colour but if you were to close your eyes and picture the car it would probable be in a turquoise blue colour.

The Beach Boys were probably on the radio... Surfin' USA

That car is always the one that everyone picks.  I am not really sure why the 57 is the symbol for that whole generation of cars, there are a few I like even more, but it is always the one that people adore.

I'm a blue guy myself.  don't like orange but everybody always talks about a 57 chevy.  Not a 55 chevy

Al and Peggy I have a number of cars that I really like, so I will have to give this one a little more thought.

Its a classic, for sure.  My folks drove us all over USA and Europe in a 56 Chevy - the tweener between 55 and 57.  Those were the days.  I had a 53 Chevy Bel Air and a 57 pickup with a bored 350.  Fun stuff.  Thanks for sharing.

Okay all you car buffs, where is the gas put in this 57 Chey?

If you can't answer the question above, how would you expect to get a part time job at your local gas station.  We don't want to see you go hungry.  Take a guess and find the answer right here with a little click of the mouse.

I love that car!  The gas goes behind the tail light on the driver's side.

Hi Misty, that was a trick question, just trying to see who else out there was in our age group.  You pass!!

Al & Peggy, the '57 was the car that first came to mind...but I've always loved the '54-'59 corvettes.  Several years ago I tried to talk the wife into buying a '54 that was a really good deal...this is the only thing that she will admit to being wrong about!

Nice, I drove a 56 Chevy Belair through college, oh the stories. My favorite old car is still the first car I ever bought in 1966, a 1931 Model A Ford Sport Coupe. Had a lot of fun with that car. Now my wife wants to know when I'm going to take it out of the garage and go for a spin.

Turn the chrome piece on the tail light and fill er up!

The orange definitely makes a statement.  What a classy car.

Posted by Irene Tron (Precept Ministries International) over 2 years ago

I was very fond of my '63 VW Beetle.  I spent $100 on a custom paint job and another $100 for wire wheel covers.  It always made heads turn when I drove bye.  I miss that car!

A&P - :) I like that ... I think there were more turquoise blue colour 57's in our neck of the woods than any other colour
