MOAR Plz Chill to the Maxxx.

For shame. That is a thing of beauty.

When I was little, there was a 50s era Bel Air at my grandparents house. It had belonged to my dad’s aunt, or maybe even my granddad’s aunt - back then they would’ve been in their fifties themselves, so maybe a bit young for it to have been their car in the first place.

Well, former Okie, longtime New Yorker here.
