    Elcohaulic, DON'T DO IT! Hold onto that El Camino and I'd say that even
    if it was a stocker with a 307. There'll always be another '57 Chevy, they
    won't all be turned into g***er wannabes.

    Hmmm...
    Now we need to see the 57 in question. To get you on topic. People discouraging you from getting a 57 Chevy.
    On a Tri 5 thread! Lol

    My buddy had his 57 back to the ch***is shop for a couple updates, that firewall is regular steel ( not stainless ) that he polished to that high luster.

    That's the break in motor, it'll get a blower motor once it's sorted out.

    When I built the futurian, I did all my own pre plating polishing. somehow I forgot to get some of the carb linkage pcs plated and ***embled it with some polished steel pcs. I left it at Starbirds museum for a year and when I went back to get it those pcs were solid rust. How is your buddy going to keep that firewall from rusting? Or is he going to have it chromed? *****in car by the way....

    If this is the one I saw at pidgen forge a coulple of years ago , it was allsome . But got no notice from the judges. Guess it didn't have big enough wheels and sat to high.

    When I ask him he said that he waxed it, I ask if he thought that would seal out the rust and he said he hopes so because it was a pain in the *** to polish it and didn't want to have to keep doing it.
    I thought Gibbs might protect it but I've never used that stuff personally.

    I’d gladly swap cars. Then you could do bad things to the one that used to be mine!

    Interesting the blue '57 above is using a wagon rear bumper but still mounts the license plate on the trunk lid. Neat paintjob on that one.
