FIFTY-SEVEN CHEVY

Classic is the one term

To describe her sleek, lean, hungry lines.

Michigan toiled long and hard

Perfecting her unique design

Which up 'til then had only hinted

At her moment, now unveiled;

Every curve and every point

Distinctly polished and detailed.

 

From her broad and toothy grin,

Which dared accentuate her eyes,

To her sharp foreboding fins

Casting illusions that she flies.

 

Many an hour I freely spent

Caressing her chassis to sparkling gleam.

Many a mile she carried me gladly

Until we became an inseparable team.

 

A passion between machine and man,

The likes of which had never been,

Grew up in 1957;

A year like we'll never see again.
