That's a good photo of my old G***er...514 cu in KB aluminum engine, Big Brodie heads etc...it made 692 hp on the dyno and ran out of air at 5600 rpm. I sold it 3 years ago. :-(

 

I see what you did there!

 

Now that is nice!!!

To me this just looks like the perfect California hotrod 57. Good stance, 5 spokes. I dig it!

^^^^ANY high school kids car in the early 60's to early 70's, anywhere in the USA.^^^^ If you were't into Chevrolet's, then it was the same year Fords. All the other cars were, parents cars, geek/loser cars, girls cars, or a hand-me-down cars from parents or grandparents. Mine was a 56 Chevrolet, Model 210 Del Ray, with a 2 barrel 265, and a Powerglide transamatic automission; red, with a mostly black interior and a killer A.M. radio and a rear shelf, extra speaker. By my senior year, it had a cammed up 283 with the worst Hedman Hedders (bolted together at mid length and the gaskets always blew out), floor shifted 3 speed, and a Quadrajet *******ized onto a stock 4 barrel manifold with a couple of adapters (it was that way when I bought the 57 Chevrolet it was all in). I am Butch/56sedandelivery.

 

A transamatic automission... I'll have to look that one up....

 

Yeah me too, it's bad***! A good friend just sent me that photo, along with this explanation:

I connected with the guy I sold my 2nd 57 Chevy to in 1971 on Facebook.........went to high school with him. He's a car nut and after he bought my 57 he tore it up racing it around town. i was always sorry I sold it but the one I have now is almost the same. This old one had a 327 vette engine in it with 15" american mags and same muncie 4 sp with Hurst shift that I have now. It was really fast. I could beat a few big blocks in races. Here's a picture the guy sent me after he owned it.

 

If you're dyslexic, you won't have to look it up. I am Butch/56sedandelivery.

Then there's the story of Cinderella, and her two ugly stepsisters. She fell in love with a handsome prince, and dropped her slipper.
OR
The story of Rindercella, and her two sugly blisters. She lell in fove with a prandsome hince, and slopped her dripper.

 

Butch
Your cabin fever is showing!

 

Here's a neat feature I added to my 55 more door, and some random recent pictures.

That single line 210 trim detail across the quarter panel is reminiscent of the early 57 design that didn't make it into production, though was shown in early literature.
I guess they decided to not carry over the 56 trim detail.

Man , this takes me back! I first fell in love with the '55 Chevy back around the late '70s when I walked in to my dads body shop and there sat a green 4dr with a white roof. I've not been the same since. Thanks for posting that pic!

 

Got the interior about as far as can go right now. Down the road I'd like to do new seat covers but the original door and side panels will stay put. Same with the headliner.
New carpet, insulation and seat belts and a cheapie truck seat cover that I cut up and used the bottom half. Still have to change out the under dash gauge panel with an aluminum one and SW gauges.
New shocks, lowering springs and '66 Impala hubs will start to go on tomorrow.
