[QUOTE="john250, post: 1094054, member: 4406"] That site has good pix. I was there for all of that. We had a 56 Chevy, but it was the cheapo Biscayne model. No chrome, and it leaked around the top of the windshield. Still, it ran pretty good. A '57 Chevy Bel-Aire will set you back--well, you'd better have a $100K if you're going to bid. I'd like one, too--while you're buying. :) In truth, today a Kia is a better car than those beautiful Cadillacs and Buicks. Disc brakes, fuel injection and all. Gasoline was so cheap when those cars ruled. But no Kia ever will fetch those prices. Today's kids, may fondly remember their first Kia as equal to their first Iphone. Or their first tattoo or tongue piercing. I don't know whether to trust them, but I guess I've got no choice. I remember when dealers covered the next model year on the showroom floors, and then had "grand unveiling" events when the model year switched over. [/QUOTE]
