THE FAA WATERCOLOR MARK WILL NOT APPEAR ON THE FINAL SALE
I was notified by some flyers and a web site I review that there was going to be one of the largest Classic Car Shows on Long Island the second week of September 2017 on the beach in Point Lookout. My son who is a car enthusiasts along with owning his own motorcycle shop and being a US Marine came with me to the show with his wife. As we were pulling into a curvy driveway for parking by the beach I saw this gorgeous 1951 Chevy Bel-Air in those outstanding colors of a light purple and white. I said to my son that is where I am starting and I will work my way from there. The minute I stepped on the grounds I was distracted by so many other great looking cars even once from the movies and TV shows. When I finally made it to this 1951 Chevy Bel-Air I could not believe the size of it nor the shapes of it. First unlike a lot of other Bel-Airs that I have photographed mostly from 1955 through 1958. This car was extremely long, the rear fenders were extremely rounded and over sized as they covered the whole rear tires. The front end was also well rounded with both headlights and the hard top followed the same design having a rounded portion leading down the back of the car. The paint job was mostly a pinkish purple with some white at the bottom, but it was very sleek looking and I was not the only one whose eye it caught as I took my photos more and more people were coming to look at it. Great way to start the day.
