nzcarnerd ◊ 2011-08-10 22:41	Certainly 1958 GM but not a Pontiac. Pontiac did not have the badge in the middle of the front of the hood. I would tend toward Chevrolet Biscayne. A google image search shows that many were in two tone but some were monocolour with a coloured stripe. Comments?
CougarTim ◊ 2011-08-10 23:30	But the Biscayne's stripe would be over the front wheel. That's what's throwing me; I haven't found anything with a stripe over the rear wheel.

rjluna2 ◊ 2011-08-11 02:36	I looked at the 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air and found that there is ribbed side trim at the front fender and smooth at the remaining part of the side trim. I think this picture is bit blurred due to the motion of the filming here. You can't see the notch between rear window due to the motion blur as well. I believe this is 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air Sedan.
