      Actually I'd wager the owner just sits in the passenger seat and lets the car drive.

      Thanks Dr., I was lucky the frame was in such excellent shape! It might have made more sense to do a frame off, but I just couldn't handle it psychologically! It would have seemed much more insurmountable to me.

    My sister had a black 1958 Belvedere years ago. I loved that car. It had the black and red interior, but someone had switched the bench seat for two, what we were told, Mustang bucket seats. They were blue vinyl. The back seat material had worn and so she had a Native American type blanket on the back seat custion I remember when she said she had to junk it because the rear end was going out. I was so young, I thought the trunk was going to fall off - as that's what is in the rear end of the car. She put it out in front of her house and within 2 hours she sold it. I miss that car.
