Barn Find ‘57 Chevy Reunited with its Original Owner 50 Years Later

What if you built a car, made it locally famous, and then let it go, only to have it end up back in front of you? You’d want it back, wouldn’t you? That’s the situation Skip Wesley found himself in after his old ’57 Chevy was sold to a new owner.

Adam McMullen bought the car with plans of building it into his dream project. When he started asking if anyone knew the history of the car, he opened a can of worms. The original owner’s wife recognized the car and reached out to Adam. He didn’t expect he would end up returning it to Skip, however!

  1. Neat article, I have a carport find 57 two door 210 sedan that sat for 18 plus years before I got it. Similar color, reportedly a mix of candy apple red and firemist lacquer. 327 four spd car when I got it, now 406 forged roller and TKX with 9-inch and CalTracs.

  2. I’m glad she/he found it!
    I LOVE 150s, not 210s, and here we are with a faux BelAir. 😛
