SERVICE: After our inspection we adjusted the throttle linkage, fixed the reverse lights, replaced a vent window knob, fixed the horn, adjusted the idle, repaired the speedometer head, fixed the door locks and adjusted the e-brake.
Chevrolet unveiled an all new body for 58 and it lasted only 1 year with the 59 being all new again. This 1 year design has been in demand and now more so than ever. This one is a great example because it retains its vintage charm while being updated to appeal to a younger crowd too.
For nearly 30 years, I, Jay Grams, have personally written the highlights for almost every car in our collection. What I provide is my professional opinion based on my experience with these vehicles. However, opinions can vary, and I strongly recommend a personal inspection to form your own view. Our sales team is always available to answer any questions you may have. One great option is to request a personalized walk-around video, where we can showcase the car and share our team's insights. **Our cars are displayed within a museum setting. If you are interested in a specific vehicle, please schedule an appointment with a salesperson to view it. Without an appointment, there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you decide to purchase a car, your admission will be refunded, and you'll receive a one-year museum membership.
