Pretty cool footage and info om the great new '55 Chevy. My Dad bought a new 1955 Bel Air coupe.

My favorite car of the 50s in its price range by far.

It hurt to sees the late 40's Kaiser-Frazer destroyed.  That car's slab-sided styling influenced a lot of American car designers, even though Kaiser did not last.  I remember when the back row of used car lots would have similar Kaisers in the $50 range.

'55 Chevy is my favorite Chevy of the '50's; but I still prefer the '55 & '56 Ford & Mercury to any of the Chevys.
