Customs Happy 70th birthday to the 55 Chevy

My high school ride, 1962. First car on the streets of Kansas City with chrome reverse, narrow whites and spiders!

 

wife' s 55 1980 and now

 

I'm a little surprised no one's posted Al Lazarus's car that Larry Watson painted.
Would love to replicate this car.

 

You thought right!

 

Another good friend has finally saw the light. Super solid car.

 

Oh WOW

Another custom from the GNRS.

 

Here's a picture my Dad took in 1963 at Suffolk Raceway in Virginia. The name would be taboo these days, but it's got such a killer stance.

 

.............That only a mother could love!

 

I knew you could do it!

 

My brother's 1st car was a red and white 2 door post. It had the same black and white seats as the car on page 1. 265 2 barrel with 3 speed od. It was high mileage and the engine didn't last long. It did have flipper wheel covers then. They left for baby moon's .

 

Just imagine if this first design sbc made the cut!
