Here is mine, still under contruction. This is when I bought it... And then right now... I just finished rebuilding a 235 I6 for it. It has split headers, and is getting a dual carb intake. I upgraded to the 51-54 brakes on the front, and the rear axle is out of a 74 nova. It has a v8 monza 3spd manual transmission. Going to get a painless harness for the 12volt conversion, caddy 100 amp internal reg alternator, and eventually a bag setup. Thats it really.
Ha, Action Girl I just put two and two together. I was the one that told you your fuel was leaking at the run.
the girl firends grandpa whats to sell me his 50 4 door the body is berty bad and but im thing nailhead or hoped up six and a suede blue wide whites tail dragin all stock trim some bumper work no chop
Hate to say this but if this was my car... I would drop the front 2" and be done with it. Love the original color & reversed wheels, looks like a far to nice car to take that route with...
50mercfan-- thanks! Yup, that's a Pontiac piece under the quarter windows... all I know is it's 49-54... picked them up off the ground at a swap meet. The rest of the belt line is the stock 52 Chevy. I kinda liked the way the Pontiac & Buick pieces echo each other's swoop. (Would probably look even gooder on a Fleetline!)
Mine is the white 4-door w/ porcshe blue top. The green chebby is a drawing I did for hamber leadfoot
that would be kickass! i have a pair myself and can't figure out where they're supposed to be mounted, haha. thanks.
Yeah, I have no idea what to say. Me and another guy walked infront of your car right as you parked it, and we both smelled gas. Looked down and there was a grow-ing puddle coming from under your car *shrug*.
Here is my 49 fleetline in its current state and my old lady's 50 deluxe. Also have a 51 belair but no pics
I know what you mean, and beleive me it was not an easy decision. But it's too late to turn back and when it's done it will be a killer custom and that's what I really want.
anyone have pictures of some cool ones theyve seen in person or somewhere on the internet? this black one is probably my favorite look and style of all ive seen.
cool pics from the drags. looks like a lot of fun. does anyone have any info on the black one i posted a couple posts up? id like to see some more pictures of it and maybe some info. thanks
here are a couple of my 'ol hooptys..... 53 was done by Tiny and myself..... the 54 Still lives here in SC...Was cut by Cole.
ya know, im not a fan of shiney paint for the most part and i pretty much hate purple but that car is badass, any more pics of it?
i still gotta figure out how to post pics of mine, but its a 1952 pontiac sedan delivery. Its a canadian model so its just like a chevy except for some chrome and the grill. i jsut got it in some primer a couple weeks ago and im waitin for engine parts for the sbc thats goin into it. Its also chopped 4.5 inches with a leaned back windshield. does anyone know if the original rad will cover the sbc? Shawn
This car is jaw-dropping in person!! More pics: http://www.salinasboys.com/pn_54_chevrolet.html Bryan
I love this thread. I want a 53 one day to honor the birth year of my mother. She's not dead or anything I just want it for that reason.
my gf saw one on the "donate your car for kids" tow truck today. (might have been a 54 though, it was missing the trim and had different tail lights) I'm trying to get ahold of the auction company to find it. she saw that same car running last week at the "Mr. Tires" down the street, so it can't be too far from road worthy.
