Sometimes what you’re looking for turns up in your own backyard.

I’ve owned this 1958 Impala for about 8 years now, bought it after a 10 year country-wide search. The man who owned it before me, Frank Mendoza, had it for about 3 years. He lived in a small town about 30 miles from where I live! I actually found the car through the local “word of mouth”. I have the paperwork all the way back to the original owner. The first owner lived in Fresno, CA, the 2nd owner in Vallejo, CA, the 3rd owner in Morgan City, LA, and now me, in Houma, LA. This Impala was built at the Oakland, CA plant.
