DAD turned 57 210 into GASSER

Nice looking ride. Keep us posted on your progress.

 

Congrats. 57 looks great. Guessing it has a single transverse spring or coil-overs on the front axle ?

 

all tube chassis wth narrowed 9 inch 4:56gears,on ladderbar with coilover,frt is 4inch drop tube axle with leafs and rear supports.the guy who built it copied a 57 from missouri from the 60s.all fiberglass tilt front end.it had a 383 two days ago until the previous owner dropped a small bolt in the intake and did not know and fired it up,well it wasnt good no.6 hole ended up with 2 cracks top to bottom. there for right time right place!new power plant began today 383.going to redo wiring and inside,have all the missing pieces to finish.
looking forward to racing my dad

 

dad GETS it!

 

That's pretty cool that you bought yourself one too and to race your dad !

 

Nice car, minor suggestion get rid of the red Edelbrock labels on the carbs. It is a very easy job to do.

 

i almost forgot,told him about some of the responses of the hamb and he listened,piecrust slicks,all hand painted lettering.Dad got pictures of mine today now he wants to come help finish it,DADS ARE GREAT,I am 44 and hes 65 and still building.he went yesterday and installed the strait axle in his friends 56 or 57.I wish he lived closer.here are updated picts of his,they are never done RIGHT!

 

Nice car to start with.

 

made the first test drive,with the following,
new 383 with,dart aluminum heads(ported and matched of course)
roller rockers with stud girdles
victor jr with holly 850
bullet 540 lift solid lifter cam

drove to my engine builders house to do first launch.ALL I CAN SAY IS HOLD ON!
