John Strampher tells us about his double purchase of this '55 .

CONTENTS

   I first spotted my '55 Chevy Bel Air sedan on a cool Saturday afternoon, in October 1995.  It was parked in front of Jerry Drager's Classic & Collectable Car Lot, which is located on Aurora Avenue North in Seattle, Washington.  Someone had recently taken it for a test drive, and Jerry had not put it back into his storage lot.  For some reason I was drawn to the car like a magnet, and was totally taken by it.  Now this is a 4 door sedan, which a lot of people would probably just walk by it and keep going.
