cool little 55 ,cream & sugar with your coffee

Just thought Id pass along some cool pics of a 55 Chevy in my shop. Enjoy with your morning coffee!

a BEFORE PIC

 

I like the BEFORE pic myself...2nd pic doesnt do nothing for me but you did some nice work on it!

 

I like the before but you gotta love them flames !!!

 

the before pic looks like it drove out of 1985... and the guy wanted traditional 'hot rod' flames on the car.

 

I also like the before look, but its the jeckyl / hyde thing, I also dig the flames bunches.
One car, two different attitudes completely

 

That a nice looking car, I really like the flames. BTW do you have a guy by the name of Shaun Cote working for you?

 

Shaun was with us almost 2 years ago . He lived pretty far from our new location (like 50 miles) and didnt want the commute, I think he moved back to Cali with the girlfriend- not sure. Nice kid.

 

55s are my fav.

 

Did you guys make those mini tubs? I hate yellow. ERspecially when it is on a 150 with no trim. Major improvement!

 

looks great lenny , i like it both ways

kenny schaeffer

 

Yep- made the tubs-metal fab is the thing for us . Funny, my wife hates yellow too- she hates yellow so bad she wanted to talk the guy out of having yellow in the flames... wow


Hey Kenny? Are we brotheres????!!!

 

yellow looks good on a 150 with no trim, but a bit odd on a 210 that's missing the side trim (like this one)

 

Lenny,nice job on this 55.I know this car first hand and I am very impressed with your work.Its a whooole different car now.Nice to see it back with stock wheelwells (stock tubbed that is!)

 

I had a 55 210 2 dr sedan like that back in the mid-seventies, old lady green with a white top. I painted it the same color yellow as the before pic. I swapped it for a Model A coupe. The guy I swapped it with sold it to a guy who made it into a pickup. That was a rust-free Oklahoma car, too. What a waste.

 

Looks great Lenny, although it should have been orange, By the way I sold my 55 after all these years Carlg

 

thanks Carl- so now you'll need to update your user name to- Orange Crush- not so much! LOL

I love the new car .

 

thanks man. you should stop by sometime.

 

Looks like you guys do great work, but I'm a first picture guy. All it needed was a straight axle and a bad ass small block. Gary

 

...kinda liked it yeller.
But nice licks you layed down!

 

Yeah and the thing wouldnt have made it through another season round here with rust and damage underneath that paint... LOL

 

Yep, I understand that, it's the same round here. They can't seem to dump enough salt on the roads. You guys do a nice job of laying out flames. Very tasty. Gary

 

Is it just me , or does it seem there are a lot of 55 projects going on in HAMB land !!! Awesome

 

We have had 18 inches of snow dumped here in the past week- last year we only had 17 inches total so the winter will definitely uck this year...
Thanks for likin' the licks.... I aim to please..
