Art on wheels
People tend to believe that cars are just pieces of metal that takes them from one place to the other. Well they are wrong, many cars have been sold not just for transportation, but also for beauty. One fine example has been sold in 1957 throughout America and Canada. Her fins grew large and she held a lot of chrome. She also ran on a v8 engine, sometimes with fuel injection, one of the first production cars to have it. Her colours stood out in public, not only that but her looks were also stunning. Her presence on the streets made people stare. Her name was the 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air, one of the most iconic car of the 50's, beside the Ford Tunderbird and the Chevrolet Corvette. She was the last of the tri-chevys, a collection of cars built between 1955-1957. Chevy designers planned to change her designs for the 57 year model, but due to financial interruption and little time they decided to keep the original 55 design and to give it a face lift. So in the end, they came up with this, a piece of art on wheels.
