Projects New look for the ole 57

When Dad passed this car on to me it had modern torque thrusts on it. I put them on several years ago to replace polished centerlines that had been on since the late 80’s. Well since it’s been at my place the new wheels just haven’t really looked right to me, too nice and shiny for this old hot rod. I have a spare set of Cragar Screamers so I thought I would try ‘em. Other than getting them balanced they are staying on!

 

Great look.

 

More old school look to it now. Hope you like to polish!
The '57 Vette is a dream car for me.

 

I’ve got another set just like these at the polishing shop, they are for my 56 chevy. The set on the 57 will not be polished!

 

Nice

 

I grew up playing in this one, Dad bought it 1962. I've been the caretaker for about a year now.

 

Any updates on yours?

 

Put some new Radir polished Tri Ribs and redline radials on it

Getting closer

 

That look so good!

Damn Enloe those redlines look great on that car! wheels too. Bowling Green 2019 in the vette?

 

That’s the plan. Bring yours also. If we could get all of the guys that have them around here to show up we could make an awesome group photo.

 

I'm not going unless we can have a corvette corral! Don't you have a buddy who has his Dads old vette too?

 

Tommy Byrd he works for Coker Tire. He also has written a few books. Lost Dragstrips is a good book that he wrote.

This is his car

 

There will be a Corvette Corral I am unsure of the number. So far it is up to 1

 

The wheels & tires look good Scotty & Enloe !

 

Good move.
