Features tri five chevys lets see em"

Earl Edgington's National Record Holder 55 Chevy. Last saw this car in Earl's Peoria ILL. garage in about 1984. Anyone know what happened to it?

 

I wish I did...

 

Back to the ground.

 

So simple, so plain, so Spectacular!

 

Hell ya!!!

 

George Poteet car. It's BAD ***!

 

Very nice! I would like to have pretty much the same look for my wagon. Care to share some details? Suspension mods, wheel and tire sizes?

 

The suspension is pretty much just air over leaf setup on the rear. Very easy, basic way to bag these cars. I've had two now, have helped with more, and they always seem to work and ride well. Is it as good as a four link? Probably not, but I can do it for like less than a grand all in front and back. Then just a bag in between upper/lower control arms in front. It's fairly straight forward but a company called Universal Air actually makes bolt on brackets to make it a little easier/quicker. Unfortunately, there is something with the fuel tank/leaf/floor setup on the wagons that makes it not work.

My rear tires are 8" slicks from Towel City Tires. And then I sent those to Diamondback to put a whitewall on, and also Diamond supplied my front tires - they are the Auburn Deluxe. Wheels are just Speedway chrome reverse, 5" front and 6" rear.

 

My new 55

 

doesn't really LOOK new....

 

Thanks for the info!

 

^That wagon is slick!

 

Another '57 Sedan delivery

 

Just drug this 9 p***enger Beauville home. Solid floors and a clear ***le. Too cheap to walk away from.

 

@hotrodsneverdie - that wagon looks very solid and complete! Was it used for a business? There's lettering barely visible on one door. The quarter and door trim on the p***enger side seem to have done their job protecting the sheet metal from dings. V8 car, how's the tailgate?
