W61 Ben Martin |
Ben's 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air |
Mostly original except under the
hood: New Chevy 350 engine, power steering, power disc brakes
and Air Conditioninng. Original color: Harbor Blue (1 repaint 20 years ago). Ben says she's not a show car, but she is fun to drive and people honk and wave. Ben belongs to 4 Car Clubs in Georgia. He goes to a "cruise-in" once a week or so. One of the photos was at a cruise and another in his driveway. Every Tuesday he attends a "ROMEO" breakfast. Imagine 100 gear-heads in a restaurant with 50-80 Classic / Street Rods in the parking lot. ROMEO: Retired old men eating out. 850 + members. |
