    we're going to do it like a modified production cl*** car but street legal. I have a 327, double hump heads, smokey ram intake. We're going to put cragar ss wheels and cheater slicks. something we can just jump in and take to cruise nights and traditional shows, thanks jason

    The first 56 I had was a 150. They can be made to look a lot tougher than the Bel Air or the 210. Looks like a good solid project.Have fun.

    I've ONLY had NINE 56 Chevrolets! Model 150's are my favorite also, Plain Jane and utilitarian, keep it that way. And, although fenderwell headers "look" good, why cut up a car when there are better ways of accomplishing the same thing? Just my opinion. Butch/56sedandelivery.
