Does Anyone Know Anything about this 54

This photo was in an article in Traidtional Rod and Kulture spring 2007. It was taken at Mooneyes 2006 I guess. Does anyone have any more photos, know about the paint or suspension?

 

Looks familiar...

 

im believin that to be a 53..unless some one took the front fenders and grill off of a 53 and put it on a 54..thats possible.
sorry no other in-put but that..

 

I think its a 54 bar in a 53 shell, I know I've seen it on here or on 50chevy before.

 

ahh that explains it better..i think thats it.

it is a 53 though ,,right?

 

Bel Air Coupe with a modified tranny support. Only way to get it layen flat. Chopped ..looks like 2-3 inchs.
Air bagged either a IFS kit in front or modifed original front. Id would say IFS cause of the camber on the fronts.
C-Notched rear.
Seen it.. no ..

 

99% sure, unless it got a "new" front end during its life, like you said.
I guess that could be one of the rare vette grill bars but I haven't really seen one of those in real life before.

 

definetly cleans up that grill a bit..i kinda like it..

 

Never seen a vette grill like that..werent the signals in the grill on 53's?? Looks like a 54 inside with the signals hacked and center bar modified.

53 fenders thou

 

yes the 53 had the round signals in the grill at each end..what i think he was refering to was the possibility that might be a corvette center bar..or a 54 chevy center bar in a 53 grill
im pretty sure that car is a 53 ,,not a 54 with 53 front fenders and grill.

 

ooh I see... 53 grill with a 54 center bar...but that doesnt explain something to me cause the 54 had the turn signals as part of the center bar?

 

nope 54's were out on the leading edge of the fenders. and were more..like flat ovals..

 

thats a 53 grill..and 53 front sheet metal..as far as the back half, only the title can tell. the grill has been modified the 53 blinkers removed and possibly a 54 vette bar or a 54 sedan bar was used to customise the grill insert..
looks bitchin no less
