Hello Out There, First Let Me Say I'm Glad To Be A Part Of This Here Shindig...now For A Little East Coast History Lesson. If I Did This Right You Should Be Able To See The Pictures If Not Im Sorry. This Here Car A 1949 Chevy Has Been In My Family For 50 Years. Thats Right This Old Girl Was My Fathers First Ride, And They Have Been Together And All Over From Boot Camp In Kentucky, To Niagra Falls For His Honeymoon, With Mom Of Course, To Gracing The Cover Of Custom Rodder May 1962. All The Work Has Been Done By Him, Joseph Serino Jr. And She Has Had Several Face Lifts Before Leaving Her As You See From 1962. What A Time Machine Hey? Running A 348 B/b With Trips Of Course, Yeah She Still Gets To Kick Some Asphault, Including Going To The New York Rumblers Show Every Year...well Its Been A Pleasure Talking, So If Anyone Out There Remembers Her Drop A Line Dad Would Love To Hear From You. See Ya Lata From Serinos Hot Rods Est. 1935 In Long Island City, New York............

Pretty cool history.

Seriously though, Cool car. I love building cars, but something with some actual history is like icing on the cake to me. I found this hunk while I was in school and always wondered what is was like when it was first built, and who built it. Lucky for you, you know what yours looked like in the past.

 

Alot of work in that car. Its good you have kept it up and on the road. I love seeing history like that. I hope my kids keep the cars we build. Again great car.
