Chevy Chrome
Another shot from the Darling Buds of May Classic Car show in July 2016. If I'm not mistaken this headlight/sidelight explosion of chrome is from a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air. Strange to think it was built before I was born and I'm 55!
From Wikipedia: For 1958, Chevrolet models were redesigned longer, lower, and heavier than their 1957 predecessors, and the first ever production Chevrolet big block V8, the 348 cu in (5,700 cc), was now an option. Chevrolet's design for the year fared better than its other GM offerings, and lacked the overabundance of chrome found on Pontiacs, Oldsmobiles, Buicks and Cadillacs. Complementing Chevrolet's front design was a broad grille and quad headlights that helped simulate a 'Baby Cadillac'; the tail received a fan-shaped alcove on both side panels, which housed dual tail lights.
Despite being a recession year, consumers made Chevrolet the No. 1 make of automobile (beating Ford, which held the title in 1957) and the Bel Air was at the core of Chevrolet's popularity. With its wide variety of body styles and models, Bel Airs could be optioned with almost every conceivable luxury within the Chevrolet line. The Nomad station wagon name also reappeared in 1958 when the vehicle bowed as the premium four-door Chevrolet station wagon, lacking the unique styling of the 1955-57 Nomads. Most Chevrolet station wagon models had two tail lights housed in abbreviated alcoves, which were made smaller to accommodate the rear gate. A new dash was used.

The Coho Motel was once a favorite lodging destination for tourists visiting the Long Beach Peninsula, but now the kitchenette units serve as monthly rental housing in this area which suffers an even worse housing affordability and housing access crisis than even many large cities. Even some of the units which appear boarded up in front and say KEEP OUT are still apparently inhabited, accessible by backdoors. Some of the units still look pretty dignified, but this strip on the north side of the property is pretty abject.
