Brady Hammrich
Brady Hammrich’s ’59 Chevy has seen the world and made it back home in one piece. I bet this Bel Air has a lot of stories to tell.
“This car was purchased new in Spokane, WA, by my uncle’s parents. Shortly after, his father was stationed in Europe with the Air Force. The whole family went along, including the ‘59. Once back in the states, it was driven by various family members, before being garaged in the late 80’s. It’s a 4 door hardtop Sports Sedan. The car is all original, with original paint, and a 283 V-8 Powerglide. It was ordered with a posi-traction rear end.”
“I first laid eyes on it when my aunt married my uncle in the early 80’s, and always hoped it could be mine one day. After 30 years of trying to talk my uncle out if it, he finally gave in a couple of years ago. It took a bit of work, but she’s back on the road!”
