Description

Excerpted from the website:

I’ve owned my 55 Chevy since October 1979; to paraphrase a wise man, “What a long, strange trip it's been.” Please read on! It was late 1977. I was 18, and a student at United Electronics Instititue, an electronics school in Louisville, Ky. When I enrolled at UEI in June 1977, their placement counselor told me I needed to work a part-time job to get some experience and references. She set up an interview at Automotive Supplies, an auto parts jobber and retailer on Jacob Street in downtown Louisville.My job was driving parts to garages, service stations (remember those?) and to other auto parts retailers. My territory covered Southern Indiana and the western half of Jefferson County (the dividing line was Preston Highway).I was a real greenhorn when it came to city driving. I had only driven once into downtown, and that was just a short hop off the interstate. Finding my way around the Louisville metro area seemed like an overwhelming task.I met lots of new people on my delivery route. One of the nicest guys on my route was Paul Woodruff. He was the front-end specialist at Big O Tires on Eastern Blvd. in Clarksville, Ind. Paul had a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air 2-door hard top that sat at the tire store from time to time. Being in the car parts business, I visited a lot of stores and saw plenty of hot street iron. Paul's '55 Chevy was my favorite.
