1955 Chevy Handyman Wagon 210

With the exception of the radio and a small detail on the hubcaps. and the custom front seats this car looks very much original. It is a real head turner and much loved by all. I just completed the Iron Mike Rally. with the honor of driving a Special Forces Soldier from Pinehurst NC to Fort Bragg.   I bought the car in Montana and the body had been off the frame and the frame restored. All of the side trim is the original stainless but the light bezels are aftermarket reproductions.
