Kinda partial to this one.... ;-) and it's for sale.....
Lowered price to $23k
I am selling my 1957 Chevrolet Bel Air Gasser with a blown big block 454 engine. It is a beast. So fun to drive and boy does it turn heads....
Forgot my number. 714-322-2058 Matt
I can believe it took 2 days. I bought a new Brookville body and the while the metal is nice and new, it needs a lot of massaging to get where it...
Mine measures 44 1/2". I am also thinking the tapered pieces that fit in the stanchions and locate on the windshield frame do not fit properly in...
Do you use a stock top? Matt
Hey all, I'm looking for the dimension from the center of one stanchion to the center of other stanchion at the top. I tried to find out the...
Thanks for the ECI suggestion. I called and talked to them, Ralph wasn't there, but they hooked me up. I'll let you know how it is when it gets...

Ford made at least 3 different oil pans for the 460. Front, mid and rear oil pick-up.
BMW, coming soon:...
That looks like a Mabry bike. Their fastest record is 238.740
Not really, if you want to talk about top speed. J. Amo ran a 272mph pass at Bonneville this month on a blown 1000cc Kawasaki. Couldn't back it...
