Class of 58
Classic Cars

Not all of us were lucky enough to have our own car like Larry Naylor's pink 49 Chevy Convertible. And secretly many of us longed to get behind the wheel of one of the NEW cars of the 50's like the 57 Tbird or the 57 Chevrolet.

Here in no particular order are some of the cars we saw on the auto dealer's showroom floor when they were brand new models from Detroit.

Do you have some pictures of the cars you or your family drove during the 50's. If so, how about letting us display them here at the Class of 58 Web Site?

You can contact us at our E-Mail address to arrange to have them sent to us either electronically or via mail.
