I like everything about the 58 Chevy except the wheels. Whoever did it did it right - started with the weak points, brakes and suspension. Too many people start with more power and hope it stops and turns. I'm a fan of hot-rodded inlines.
The 58 was indeed controversial. Thrifty buyers balked at paying for all that fancy stuff. Who needs four headlights on a truck? GMC offered a version of the same truck to fleet buyers with only two headlights and a cheaper grille. I don't know if Chevy offered it or not.
