#10 GBUSMC, that's not a Chevy, it's a Caddie.

Is that pedantic enough? ;^)

#11 Alan Cramer:

It is perfectly understandable that you would be blinded by Ms. Malone's assets. She could make a Yugo look like a Caddie. Please note the Chevy Crest on the right edge, just above the chrome trim in the original picture of Ms. Malone. 1955 Chevy Bel Aire (See picture behind picture below)

#17 I owned a '55 Chevy (not new but not that old) and the badge on the photo looks like a caddie shield not the chevy marque though it is a bit blurry (or that could be my eyes). Granted I WAS distracted.

#18 My first car was a '56 Chevy. That's a Chevy. Love those Dagmars!

#20 Dagmars.



Understand the connotation now?

#21 GBUSMC #11.

The '55 was nice to look at but a dog mechanically.

The engine that most of them had installed didn't have an oil filter. You could drain it and refill, but no filter. You don't need to be a mechanic to know what happened to a lot of those '55 Bel Airs.

They worked out a lot of the kinks by '57, which is the real classic.

Anlost none of the '55's around today do not have original motors, but later or rebuilt ones that had a filter added.

She's a Red Chevy with chrome bumpers? /snort

#23 Since the topic is centered around Dorothy and the Dagmars ( sounds like a '50 rock and roll band) a friend took a 44D Dagmar Restraint System, in black, and altered the tween (the itty bitty part that keeps the action pieces of the D.R.S. aligned)so it would fit his 57 Caddie's Dagmars. Drove to school with it; Vice Principal was not amused. All others thought it was a hoot.

Exactly.
Except that that's a Caddy.

#25 My '56 had a 283 4bbl carb. That's a Chevy.
