My guess is this Bel Air was his son's car and didn't return from Vietnam. Timing is right. There were lots of cars like this put away while the owners were at war. It wouldn't fit for the old guy to be the owner, but stranger things have happened. As far as why the drivetrain was changed, who knows.

Never thought of that angle....Dave all I did was wash it, buff it, pick up a few pieces here and there, remove seat covers, add the engine and trans and thats it..BTW..Les came out and picked up the 6 and trans to put in some 58 Chev he had. Quite a character !!
