How the Sale of a Chevy Cameo Landed One Man a Rare and Highly Desirable Rochester Fuel-injected Convertible.
One day while showcasing his '57 Chevy Cameo, a spectator who had been eyeballing his ride approached him.

A few months later Manny gets a phone call from the guy he had met at the show who lets him know that he’s still interested in buying the car but he was waiting to unload a car before picking it up.

At that point, the lights went off in his head; his wife had long wanted a '57 convertible so he decided to look further into it.
