I recently picked up this 58 Sub. It's dressed as a Army vehicle on the outside with a patriotic inspired interior.

That looks very nice. How confident are you that it is a 58? The fender badges are the 59 version.

Maybe just '59 fenders. Need to see the hood ornament.

All the emblems are 59, fenders and hood. So little is original that I'll just go by the title. It is likely that at some point the front sheet metal was replaced.

Do you have any history on the 'Burb itself? In the Legacy Tech Tips, we have a Stovebolt History & Random Facts section that has some WWII Stovebolts and even earlier. Fun to look back on these pages and see the old pictures.

Dan ... so you're going with what's on the title. I'm guessing that's a 1958?
