Just got back from Stouffville car show, "WOW" I checked just after 12:30 & they had 828 cars & they were still coming in the gate, alot of "high dollar" cars there, but one very nice 57 Pontiac grey & white 4dr. sedan, 6cyl. 3 on the tree, was so quiet coming in we didn't think it was running, & restored to the 9"s a "beauty" Also a 56 Bel AIR [trailer queen] that was "over" restored in my opinion, 265, dual quad [with batwing air cleaner] & almost every option except air on it. They didn't hide that fact that it came on a trailer, drove truck & trailer right in, most people "unload" a block away & then drive it in, I hope there are a few more fall shows, as most of the "summer" ones were RAINED OUT here in Ont.

Was the 56 Bel Air dual quad a two tone green car ? If so he lives in our hood, usually drives it in town here but Stouffville might be a bit far for him to risk. It does have every option except air.
Those guys are a real hoot actually, they never really look at the cars they just like to shoot the breeze with everyone, every other word starts with F. If you ever wanted to know any thing about the tri fives, these guys know.
They got that car out of California then proceeded to source every NOS part and option known to man then built that car. I never even knew a dual quad was an option on a 56 Bel Air until I talked to these guys. Like I said they usually drive it to shows in and around Toronto but I guess the trip to Stouffville was a bit risky. It's not really a Trailer Queen because we see it every week at our local cruise. They usually have a survivor 56 4dr Sedan out of Texas with them too brown and biege.
nice, very clean car!
