Carrying a Torch (Red)

This hot ’55 Two-Ten scored 995 points at Chevy Classics’ 2015 Winter National

I have always loved the ’55 Chevy. As a small child of five, my parents bought the one and only new car they ever owned– a ’55 Chevy. I think that’s when I really became hooked.

During my younger days, I had owned three of these fine automobiles. But as life may have it, I joined the Air Force, went overseas during the Vietnam War, got married and started a family. As a matter of fact, in 1979 I drove my first wife to the hospital in a ’55 when my oldest child, Travis, was born. In looking back, if I had only known then what I know now, I would have worked out a way to keep those fine rides.
