Vehicle Description


1956 Chevrolet BelAir Convertible. Same
owner for 36 years. The owner drove this car in many scenes on the
set of the "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull"
movie which was partly filmed at Yale University here in New Haven
CT. He and many of his club Members had so much fun driving our
cars in this movie. The car did make it in one Scene in the actual
movie. It was a wonderful experience driving my car in the chase
scenes with Harrison Ford and Company throughout the streets of New
Haven for 4 days "an unforgettable experience". Another unique part
of this car: Danbury Mint made a limited addition numbered diecast
model of my 56. They took over 8 hours at the owners home and
measured all aspects of the car. He reviewed the first model and
had many comments that needed to be fixed, such as the engine paint
color I have a dual master cylinder on the car which I had them
change, and many incidental items. (I have the original Diecast car
with the mistakes) plus 4 other numbered finished models.
