When I was in my early twenties I had a customer, a lady who at the time must have been in her early seventies, who's daily driver was a stripped '57 two-door sedan, maroon in color, with the "power pack" package - V-8 (265 I think) with dual exhaust, and a Rochester 4-bbl. she was a widow for about eight years. Her husband bought the car just before he died. It was his first new car and he loved that car. The old lady said she would never sell it to me... or to anybody else.
