Default bel air ?

Hi I'm new to this forum. I spotted this car recently and wondered what it is? I think it's a Chevrolet Bel Air. Can anyone give me any more info? Thanks

Looking at the wings on the back, I think it's more likely a 58 Cadillac.
This is the behind of a 58 Belair

Its a masterfully restored 1958 Cadillac Coupe DeVille. Not the 1957, nor the 1959. Precisely a 1958.
There was a big chage in the models each year between 1957 and 1959

Here is a Cadillac Sedan DeVille

Yep sorry about that man, I did some more searching and Evansblue is right, its a Deville. I gotta say though, I much rather like the looks of the 58' Fleetwood just because of the Coupe styling
