Only straight axle car I have ever seen that can pull off "side pipes" [emoji106] Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk
There is one already I will try and find the link. EDIT: found it 57 pages of them https://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/threads/tri-five-chevys-lets-see-em.206159/page-57#post-12826170
Nice. Well that's plenty of meat, surprised you got it all tucked under there. You could get a bit more on the outside and clear the fender probably. That blown big block probably needs all it can get.
You are right about the space. I narrowed the rear that far before ever making the decision to radius the wheel wells. It was a PIA to take the wheel off. Suspension had to be at full drop, still had to tip the wheel down and "unhook" it from the studs. The Dana 60 will be wider. Don't tell my car, it's a surprise!
Will someone with photoshop skills please fix this photo! The blue Nova can be left in, the whole Nova preferably but the police would then remove it completely anyway. Patiently waiting for the 67/earlier cutoff to go into effect, hint, hint.
Denny, there are so many photos in this thread (and a lot of others) that have post cut off date cars in the background that it would take a team of photoshoppers to rectify the problem. Roo
Your car is way more of a gasser that a large percentage of the recently built cars in this thread, especially the ones with the 10 spoke front wheels. Add the fact that it has a real engine and driveline as opposed to what is some of the poseurs pretending to be gassers and it gets my vote. Roo
Please..........are you really hung up on the back of a Nova in a pic....ummm it’s 2018....might got to a show and see post 64 cars...wow.....just wow... a guy posts a pics that clearly has a “ tri five gasser” but because the back of a nova is in the pic you suggest a photoshop...again....you criticize, but add shit to any thread you seem to enjoy policing...
Your welcome...glad to add to the thread...thank the lord there wasn’t a 67 nova quartepanel in the pic..
Damn! That's a good looking picture!! Whatcha think Chevy57Dude? I wonder who took that? Seriously, it's really good to know that those pix from Jalopyrama are being viewed by folks way across the country and not just on the East Coast. Post away, gasser-a-go-go.
I might not always agree with you back East guys especially when it comes to the 1/8 mile vs.1/4 mile. But at least you guys have a more of a following of people that actually drive, race and use their cars!!!! even though we have better weather here on the West coast it's like murder to get somebody out with their car.

Is that what was wrong with the picture???? Don't sweat it dude... Do what I do and deal with the whiners on here...
That running scared '55 is awesome. I've never seen that one either Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk
^Yes! Check out the way the rocker panel reveal ridge is so cleanly carried over to the radiused wheel well. Also the single hoop roll bar, and the fact that it's a swooopy hardtop.
