Vehicle Description
EXTERIOR: Every panel of this car has intriguing style! It's a clean, straight body that fits nice. Repainted its original color: Cashmere Blue and it has a glossy finish. The chrome and trim are straight and shiny and there's no shortage of trim! It even has optional dual antenna. New windshield and weatherstrips. Correct T-3 headlights. It's squatted down and looking really sharp on some staggered size Billet Specialties wheels, they're 18s in front, 20s in back.
INTERIOR: It's just as stylish on the inside. Restored nicely. Down on the floor is new carpet, embroidered mats and the best part: a 4-speed! Blue seatbelts were added front and back. The seats were reupholstered in the correct multi color upholstery. New reproduction door panels, armrests, and handles. The dash and metal trim were repainted. The headliner was replaced, the dome lights work.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It has a correct 1958 348 motor with factory correct tri-power carbs. It also has the big air cleaner, glass bowl fuel filter, stock valve covers. All three carbs are functioning but runs on the center until you mash the pedal then all 3 open wide! It has reproduction hoses and clamps although the radiator is upgraded with an aluminum Griffin. It also has a new power brake booster with a dual reservoir master cylinder. The generator looks new. The engine bay and all the metal parts are painted very neatly.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid and the jamb are painted glossy like the car. Inside is all solid metal painted a satin blue with sound deadener and a new reproduction mat.
UNDERSIDE: The body was off the frame, so the underside looks fresh. All clean metal floors painted semi-gloss black. It has a lowered suspension that's been rebuilt. The steering has been rebuilt. The brakes have been upgraded with disc in front, the rear drums were rebuilt, and the e-brake works. It has a new dual exhaust neatly bent to run along the x-frame. New polished fuel tank. Looking up at the motor it is spotless Chevy Orange with a black flywheel cover. It has correct starter and canister type oil filter. The Powerglide automatic was upgraded with a T10 4-speed trans, the shift linkage looks fresh. The drive shaft is rebuilt.
SERVICE: After our inspection we adjusted the throttle linkage, fixed the reverse lights, replaced a vent window knob, fixed the horn, adjusted the idle, repaired the speedometer head, fixed the door locks and adjusted the e-brake.
CONCLUSION: Chevrolet unveiled an all new body for 58 and it lasted only 1 year with the 59 being all new again. This 1 year design has been in demand and now more so than ever. This one is a great example because it retains its vintage charm while being updated to appeal to a younger crowd too.

About Volo Auto Museum
No other collector car dealer has been in business longer than the Volo Auto Museum. Owned and operated by the Grams family since 1960. We are the only collector car dealer that has 4 generations of experience with buying, selling and consigning classic autos. For our family, classic cars are more than a business, it is a passion. Over the decades, we have maintained a reputation for dealing with integrity as proven with our high reviews and A+ rating with the BBB.
Buying a classic car can be exciting, but also stressful. We want to take the stress out of your buying experience by allowing you the time and tools you need to get to know the car you are interested in before making your investment, not after. Unlike auctions, we allow test drives, 3rd party inspections, the use of our shop and car lift. No reasonable request will be turned down.
Selling a car can be equally stressful, but it doesn’t have to be. After reviewing your quality collector car, we will discuss the options we have available to you and let you decide what works best for you. We have cash available for immediate sales and we also offer a consignment program that surpasses anyone else’s. Unlike percentage based programs with fees; we work with a no fee, net to owner. This allows us the opportunity to treat and market your car as if it were our own. We invest approximately $1500 of our own money into marketing your car, which means if it doesn’t sell, we lose, not you. So, we are more aggressive in selling your car!
